Dr.White is an excellent teacher. She's very helpful with the essay final and will correct it as many times as you want because she really wants you to get an A. There's no midterm and an essay final, but she gives you the question on the first day of class.

Wendy White is an excellent teacher, very very knowledgable about religion! NEVER pushes her views on her student. very chill, explains things extremely well. always lets everyone speak their opinion. take her class if u want to learn a lot and have fun! YOU WENDY WHITE NOW!!!!!! :)

great teacher incredibly smart and interesting, DOES NOT PUSH POLITICAL VIEWS ON HER STUDENTS AT ALL! DOESNT lecture right ouf of the book, gets her sources from everywhere! fun, informative and ggreeeeeeeatttt take any of her classes im sure all of them are wonderful! I GIVE HER AN A PLUS PLUS PLUS

She's very knowledgable and passionate about what she is teaching. I felt discouraged at first by the reading but once she started talking, I felt empowered. She's a very well spoken and motivating. Her class is an eye opener: an experience

Yeah she's a great professor, she really knows what she's talking about. Her class is pretty easy if you just keep up with the reading and talk during converstion hour. I highly recommend her.

I took this class last quarter and got an A. Show up to class, PARTICIPATE, do the discussions, ace the final paper, and you'll get an A. If you hate going to class this is not the place for you.

i reallyt like this professor. she is really nice, she knows what shes talking about and is always willing to help a student. im failing her class on behalf tho. i have not had time to do all her work with my busy schedule and lack of motivation, but if you really pay attention you should pass in no time!

This teacher is really good, she explains clearly and you believe that she's a religous teacher but she's an atheist. she's a doct. so she knows what she's talking about ! Not a really easy class you have to do the work and be specific. But If you do all the work you will do good ! NOt lower than a C, I promise !she goes on a curve by d way

All I can say is Awesome, Awesome, Awesome!!! Dr. White knows what she is talking about! She is very very clear in the way she speaks and teaches. All you have to do is pay attention and do ur work!

she's really easy but its actually a lot of work. chapter reviews, scrapbook, final essays, and video dyads/councils. if you don't mind actually doing work she's great.

I am an EDC and a DSS student. This Professor is good one to take. She is challenging. If you do what is expected of you. You should be fine. She is willing to help out any way she can to help you pass. Lots of reading, quizes, and dyads. A final you can work on all quarter and a scrapbook, plus chapter reviews. Lots of work, but a great class.

Dr. White is really nice, she seems hard in the beginning, but if you talk to her, she is always willing to work with you. It is a lot of work for that class, but you will learn something.

she is great and very clear. I loved her class and learned a lot. TAKE HER!!!

To all those who thinks she's hard, lets just say I missed several homework assignments and several quizes and ended up with a B. If you don't bother to ask questions and sit on your butt, you can't really enjoy this class. Even asking a few questions per class makes it fun, and she's willing to help her students even if she's pressed for time.

At first her class seems dull but u'll appreciate that shes not trying to make religion a contraversial subject. This class could easily be 30 ppl arguing why their religion is better. The text is good so its not hard reading it... her assignments are long but very easy. She has vocab quizes once every 2 weeks. She doesn't ask a lot and she cares.

Dr White is very open minded. Interesting class to take. Easy A. Exams and quizzes are mostly matching definitions and fill-ins. Great to make friends in, very social environment. She encourages students to discuss and think outside the box. Nice lady! Cool personality.

She knows so much it's almost hypnotizing. There is work and a few announced quizes. She is the type of teacher that wants you to think about things, get to your own conclusions; she will not hold your hand and lead you there. You have to open your mind and think about the stuff she lectures about. Great class that everyone should consider taking.

Easy A if you follow directions. Great social environment. She teaches a lot of revisionist history of Islam and other religions that you won't get elsewhere, but not for long enough. She should make that a separate course.

Take this class if you are prepared to WORK. She's a great teacher, you will learn a lot. The class is generally easy but the chapter reviews, scrapbook,and take home final are very time consuming. Quizzes can be tricky but are not a huge part of the grade.

she's a wonderful/kind person with a very open mind. class is easy as long as you participate, do the assigned work.

weekly work, chapter reviews about 5 pages typed. daily group and video discussion, all graded. actual notes taken on ppt slides, not used. final is a ****, maximum 35 pages. i got to ~20 pages, and still didnt have enough information.

She is interesting and very knowledgeable, though her grading is rather hard, and she has many pop quizzes in the first 5 minutes of class so don't be tardy. She also has a habit of locking the door at the start of class so you can't get in and then she punishes you for missing class or in class assignments due to her locking you out. I hated her.

She's pretty easy. All you have to do is do the chapter review, participate, and study the vocabs.The tests are pretty easy. You watch a lot of videos.

Dr. White is a very good professor. Her class and lectures are very interesting and comprehensive but when it comes to grading? Boy... she is tough. I worked real hard entire quarter and did a great job on every assignment but still got an ?-A.? However, if you are really into religion and have doubts,JUST TAKE HER.

Great teacher - she is very intimidating at the beginning and the work seeems overwhelming but it is really manageable. She demands respect and as long as you respect her you will go far in the class. She is willing to work with you and is really easy to talk to. She is not as scary as she seems at the beginning.

LOVE THE WAY SHE SPEAKS!

She was ok, there were moments when it was hard to like her. Overall, she did a good job of creating an environment where people could speak about such an intimate and personal subject (which was critical). Don't miss more than 4 classes, speak up in class, there are videos and video forms, vocab exams, journals, chapter reviews, and a final.

Great teacher. Everything is very clear so if you miss class, you don't have to panic. With her syllabus, you always know what is due and when there is a quiz/test. Most of the material was interesting. She expects a lot and she will not put up with talking during class. If you push yourself, you will learn and get a good grade. Highly recommend.

Dr. White is awesome! Period. She's really cool and really open minded. The class is pretty fun but there's a great deal of work which isn't that fun lol.

Amazing teacher, she is so knowledgeable and articulate, makes really interesting points about religion and history that you would otherwise never be exposed to, she requires some work for her class but the main thing is that she is well worth your time, also don't be afraid to ask questions!

Work is tedious,but worth it. Do the readings and follow her lectures is recommended for a good grade.

Dr. White is an amazing teacher who is very animated and clearly has a passion for what she's teaching. She holds no judgement (when it comes to the religion class) and she seems to always be smiling and laughing. The midterm was difficult but the final was a take home essay. I passed with an A and it's been one of the more interesting classes.

Dr. White is awesome, straight up. I was in her class a couple of years ago. I quite honestly hated it because i did not commit to the class, and didnt come in with an open mind. I dropped out of the class half way through. I retook the class this last summer and it was great. A lot of what i learned has stuck with me.

Lots of discussion, lots of reading (but totally manageable because you've usually got a whole weekend) and lots of films to watch. As long as you've got an open mind and are a critical thinker, you'll do great. You can miss 2 reading reviews and still get an A, also there's a huge extra credit option.

She is an awesome teacher who talks very "chill"-like. The class is pretty interesting if you are open-minded. You walk in there as a Christian and walk as an atheist or a Buddhist. SHE IS THAT GOOD! Homework is not fun! Be prepared to do a lot of reading and answering critical thinking questions. Her tests and quizzes are easy tho. GL and HF!

If English is not your first language, FORGET IT!! If you love reading a chapter containing 40-50pgs go ahead. Don't get me started on writing her papers..dear God! Overal I had fun in her class but reading was intense!!

very lenient with grading. chapter reviews are hard at first but get easier. tries her best to teach a very controversial subject and does pretty well.

She's not hard but you have to be willing to put in time to get a good grade! Very fair, engaging (if you enjoy the subject), and an easy grader. Took her over summer so the pace was very fast. Vocabulary exams were the hardest but, again, study and you'll do fine. An "A" is very attainable!

Dr. White is a great history instructor. She is passionate about teaching and encourages critical thinking. Dr. White is really nice, and she is very helpful during her office hours. She was like my counselor during the quarter. Keep up with the reading and chapter reviews, pay attention to the lectures, and most importantly, participate!

There are a lot of discussions, so expect to participate a lot. Homework load is not too bad, but be careful not to procrastinate on it. Theres two midterms and 1 final paper. She is friendly, energetic, passionate and helpful.

Professor White is one of the professors who really takes students to her heart. For all the people who didn't agree, I will challenge to you to question yourself that how much are you open to the world, and to what extend are you ready for real college? please grow up. This class is true education.

WONDERFUL TEACHER! EXTREMELY HELPFUL. HER CLASS IS A CHALLENGE BUT WELL WORTH IT!!

Extremely easy class if you do all of the homework and participate in class. If you don't like raising your hand and talking in class, then this isn't the class for you. Just read the textbook, print out the assignments, participate occasionally, and you should get an A without much difficulty. Also, you will watch a lot of videos in this class.

Ms. White is one of the best that De Anza has to offer. Granted, there's a lot of work to keep up with throughout the quarter, but if you're looking for a challenge, definitely take this class. If you pass her History 3b class, you will literally be ready to take on any other class at De Anza, no joke. She's very helpful too, so ask her anything.

READ HER SYLLABUS. It's 65 pages long, and she will not go over it in class. In it, it asks for VERY specific details while writing your papers, and if you don't follow instructions, she will not accept the paper. Vocabulary tests are VERY hard but don't count much toward your overall grade. Other than that, she's very nice and knowledgeable!

Dr. White really pushes us to share our opinion about whatever it is we're focusing on for the week. She's really passionate about what she teaches and really wants us to be engaged in our learning so participation is mandatory. She makes the discussions really enjoyable. 2 papers that require quite a bit of deep thinking, but definitely do-able.

First of all, she's a pretty good teacher. My personal advice. READ THE SYLLABUS. I truly mean it, its 64 pages long and she WILL NOT go over it in class. Like ever.... Second. Do not under any circumstances procrastinate in this class. Seriously if you are that person. Chapter questions are in the Syllabus

An absolute joy to have. Teaches with such passion,enthusiasm, knowledge and personal involvement. Makes learning a joy and rewards you with an optimistically informed and clear perspective on spirituality and conformity rendering openness and acceptance to all views. The best teacher at DA

One of the most enthusiastic and passionate profs I've ever had at DA. Her lectures were very interesting and eye-opening. I liked how she got the entire class to talk and express our opinions, and didn't babble on for the two hours like other professors her age. She does seem intimidating at first but don't be afraid to talk to her.

An awesome, knowledgable teacher with incredible passion. Participation is required to get a good grade, actually a big portion of overall grade. The only thing to mention about her is that her syllabus are long and she lost my work.. but overall, Dr. White is an amazing teacher, I do recommend taking her class.

This is one of the hardest classes here at De Anza. The workload is massive and you have a LOT of reading to do, but it's worth it. She is a very kind, gentle person who wants you to succeed and she'll help any way she can. You'll learn a lot from this class and learn to evaluate Human Dignity and the Dignity of Life.

She is the best professor I know. She inspires me and communicates with me. She figured out a system of learning which is to write about what you read. I would take her class again and again.

Let me just say that she changed my life. I have never had such an inspirational professor before. If I could, I'd be just like her. The journals are tough (my 2nd one was 33 pg.'s typed) but was crucial to analyzing the text. I highly recommend her if you're willing to earn your knowledge! She has truly opened my eyes up to our history.

Amazing, inspirational class. Fun class but there is a heavy amount of work. By work, I mean packets and packets of homework and each packet is almost 14 pages EACH. But she'll give you 2-3 weeks to turn it in. NO TESTS, NO QUIZES, EASY FINAL (Project). If you're willing to do some work, you'll get your A.

I loved Ms White! She teaches a very different version of history, focusing on the regular people more so than leaders like normal. The whole class was more of a discussion than a lecture, and we all became friends instead of fellow students. She's very liberal, so if you are not I wouldn't recommend this class. It was an incredible experience!

Dr White is great teacher straight forward gives you all the work you need to do the first week of class due throughout the semester Watch movies good teacher lots of reading tho just do your work and 12 page final essay but its based of your portfolios so do your portfolios you will be fine

She changed the way I look at history. If you are lazy, then skip this class . If you work hard and love to learn, this is the professor for you. I absolutely loved her class. The journal is long. Plug away at it nightly and you'll be okay . Don't wait for the last minute or you're in trouble.

De Anza has a lot to professors that don't care about your intellectual growth. Professor White is different; she will challenge you academically and intellectually, she will prepare you for university level classes, and will help you to broaden your critical horizons. Love her!

You'll get what you give. Dr. White provides inspiration and an environment of open discussion. I was inspired to travel beyond the material with her assistance. Portfolios are challenging, thought provoking. Not an easy "A." Attendance a must, or you won't keep up. Work the assignments and stay current. She'll make you a better student. She cares.

I love Dr. White. She is a very inspirational professor and the class is an enriching course. If you are looking for a class that will open your mind, challenge yourself and the society we live in, then you should definitely take the class!

Amazing teacher! A true inspiration to me. I have gotten A+s in more than one of her courses. I have never learned so much.

There is more than just lecture I learned from Wendy. She helped me discover who I truly am and my potential. She is wise and very eye opening. She alway gives her students space to express their opinion even she doesn't agree on it or when we are off topic. Wendy inspires her students to live their life with passion and desire of knowledges.

Great professor, super nice. Lectures are a on the free spirit side but good class. It was a history class but she incorporated philosophy and ethics concepts. Easy assignments, didn't need to come to class every session, no final exam and only a short final research paper. Just needed to read some of a $12 book and some online material to pass.

Dr White is an amazing Professor! She is very understanding of her students and an inspiration. She has a different teaching style that catches your attention, and keeps you attentive in class. There are big projects to complete but the projects benefit you as a student. I definitely recommend this course with her, shes seriously the best!!

Prof white is by far one of the warmest individuals you will meet. She is wise, passionate, and invested. If you make the effort to hear her: you will learn more from her lectures than the book. There are two HW packets that basically cover every lecture. Be nice, reach her level of investment, do the work, and you'll get an A+.

Dr White is amazing- I took her History 3 series. She gives great feedback and genuinely cares about her students. She focuses on the human experience, so its not just about memorizing dates and facts, theres a LOT of focus on connecting with the masses.

Dr. White changed the way I think about history! Her class was truly enjoyable, she provides students with many primary sources. Her expectations are very reasonable for a college class; do the work and you will get a good grade. I took her class as Honors, and am so glad I did. The Honor work is interesting, probably because it is self-directed.

I can definitely see why this class would be difficult and tedious as well as work heavy (especially if you dislike politics) but other than that this class was fun. All you really have to do is homework and show up along with participate and you pass. Plus as someone who is a socialist majoring in history, this class was very easy and enjoyable.

Fully online synchronous class, lots of assignments and I dropped within the first two weeks because of this. The layout and her teaching skills were great but not for me since I work full time and have a family at home.
