Comment:

this professor doesn't know how to use moodle. Our class had to email her 5+ times throughout the semester about moodle problems. She was rude when answering questions, still made us go to campus to turn in classwork even though our class is online. Also, she requires weekly quizzes and only gives you 3 minutes to complete the test online.

Comment:

Only took this class for about a week and dropped. She seems very sweet, but also not so understanding. Timed quizzes at 3 minutes is not long enough to read 5 questions w/ 5 possible answers. It's nice you have no midterm/final, but not worth it. Too much work per week for a gen ed. Was spending more time on this than microbiology and psych...

Comment:

i took this class online and 1300/2000 points are quizzes. Which would be fine, if the quizzes weren't timed. Its a 5 question quiz, with 5 possible answers, sometimes ranging with multiple sentences in length. And we have 3 minutes to complete each quiz. I read at college level, and even i had a problem with this 3 minute time frame.

Very easy if you come to class and study. Gives a quiz every week and no final. Simple 4.0, would highly recommend for an art credit. One of my favorite professors.

Comment:

She is a great person, the other professors in the art department really respect her, and with good reason. Her lectures are very clear, make sure to take notes on what she says as well as her powerpoints. Weekly quizzes on material. Do not miss class- especially if you bombed more than one quiz. Not great with technology, be patient!

Comment:

I took this class online, and Prof. Ngote just didn't quite understand how to work Moodle. Several quizzes involved questions/paintings that weren't shown/discussed in the PowerPoints we had to read; I had to email her more than any other professor to correct mistakes she made which in turn made it harder for me as well as the other students.

The best class I've taken so far. I had her two days a week. She will lecture on a topic for two days, and then give a quick quiz. All you have to do is write notes in class and you will pass. Great Class for History Buffs. Looking forward to taking her in AH renaissance to modern. Only downside is art history is useless.

All you do in this class is lecture and take 14 quizzes total. you don't have any midterms nor a final. you have one quiz a week about what she has lectured the previous two classes before. super easy; just listen and you'll get an A. easy class to take for nursing students

course taken online. Good: knowledgeable instructor and you will learn some things. Bad: a lot of work a week however manageable, you better not have a tech issue I.E something doesnt attach because it will greatly affect your grade and theres no mercy and there is little to no communication from instructor which is needed for an online course.

She gives a weekly quiz, there is no midterm and the final was optional. Show up to class and take good notes and you will pass this class. The book should be optional but i found it helpful to look right at the paintings we were talking about! Interesting lady, really enjoyed her class!

Comment:

I do not recommend this teacher, especially if you take this class during the summer. She gives 7-10 quizzes a week, an assignment, and a forum. She is pretty harsh on her comments to students. I think it is because she is so into art history.

Comment:

Take my advice and do not take this class in the summer..3 hours of this class is crazy. She's so sweet. The only thing I do not like is that she expects you to know the answer and will choose you if you have not talked. Make sure you write everything done for the quizzes. Overall, decent teacher.

Its hard not to fall asleep in her class, her tests have questions she never went over. The only good thing is theres no homework and it will be your least stressful class. To study make a document with an Artists and all of their paintings and go over them lots.

I loved having her as my professor! She made this class really interesting and she is passionate about the subject. She doesn't give out papers or a final exam. She gives out weekly 20 question quizzes but they are very easy if you pay attention and take notes of her lecture! I looked forward to class and highly recommend her!

Comment:

Professor Ngote is a great professor. Don't get me wrong though it doesn't help that Art History is one of the most boring classes to take. However, she realizes this and really tries to spice up lectures with interesting dialogue and pictures that can get you more invested. And its clear how you will be graded with a quiz every week.

Comment:

Ngote was a low-key cool professor. You have a quiz every week-its not bad at all. Just show up to class and take clear notes. I usually google the art pieces before a quiz to refresh my memory. She keeps everything interesting by showing pictures of herself at work!She's been to Egypt, Rome, Germany, etc. I would take another class with her.

Comment:

Weekly quizzes were a lifesaver! They are easy if you go to class and take notes on the topics she specifically highlights in her power points. Her power points are mostly pictures so be prepared to take notes mostly off what she is saying. Defiantly don't buy the book its not used in class and she doesn't assign reading or homework

Professor Ngote is awesome! No exams or homework, just weekly quizzes, which are easy if you just go to lecture and briefly look over your notes the night before. If you need to take an art gen Ed take her, it's easy and the material is interesting. Also you don't need the book, so don't waste your money on it!
