Comment:

8 week class and the workload was easy. Each week you read a chapter or two, watched a film, and did a discussion post. Easy enough. The material is interesting and she provides good feedback in a timely manner. The special topics history classes are fun and not boring like the required ones. Take her class if you need a history credit.

History special topics class called Women in Western Culture I and this class was great! Each week you read a chapter, watch an interesting film on contributions women have made in different cultures, and write a discussion post. There are no tests or essays. She's a fast grader and classes are so insightful! It's a history class so expect reading.

Never received a grade lower than a B she has dropped my grade to a C with more than 4 weeks left I'd get a D by the way she grades so I dropped out. Her handouts are many and videos are so old let alone the book is lil short passages and she expects high critiques with not much given. Huge regret of taking this class. All D/P worth 100 pts each.

Comment:

This class was Women in Western Culture and Kant knew the material well. Each week consisted of watching one documentary and writing a short review on it as well as reading a chapter in the textbook and writing an analysis. She grades very fast and gives good feedback. Kant's classes are interesting and highly recommended! She's one of a kind prof!

Comment:

The book for this class was horrible. The author's way of writing was tough. I could not decipher the writer's way of writing, so towards the end I just started rephrasing the teacher's notes. The week's work is a discussion post and quiz every week. I still got an A, but it is hard to know exactly what she wants.

Kant is wonderful! She lays out a clear grading criteria and you can work ahead if you want to. The films and lectures are interesting. I have taken Kant for many classes and she never disappoints. History of Witchcraft was a great choice! You'll learn so much you never knew! TAKE HER!

Lots of writing and reading. 2 stars she grades very hard- all my papers (so far) are all B. The quality, content, writing, and effort I put in there is good (imo) and still get B. I think if she doesnt like what you write or have differ opinion, she deducts you from it. Who knows? movie every week an its hard to listen to link she provides.

History of Witchcraft online was an amazing class! It's put together very well and each week consists of reading a chapter in the textbook and the lecture notes she provides. Also we watch a film every week. No papers or tests. So informative and you learn so much about the history of witchcraft that you never knew before. Take any of her classes!

I LOVE her classes! Took two different classes of hers and they are very easy! but also, you learn a lot with all of the readings, films, and handouts. There's a discussion post you would have to do every week about what you've learned from the chapters, handouts, and film, and answering 1 study question. Easy A :)

You do not even realize you're learning anything. You will gain more from her lectures than you would ever gain from a book. The class is easy as hell, but don't take it for granted... do the work. The woman's brilliant!

I honestly can't say enough good stuff about this professor I took her vampire class online. It was a great experience. A fair amount of reading but that should be expected. I learned a lot from this class and the teacher was always helpful and provided insight.

Probably the best teacher I have had at CSN. Her class was so interesting and she always gave great feedback on assignments. All of the weekly work was in the same format which made things easier. I learned a lot from this class and would take another with this teacher in a heartbeat.

I love Dr. Kant's classes! This was Modern Pagan Thought and each week we had readings in our book or handouts she provided as well as a documentary to watch which we did discussion posts over. No quizzes or exams. Great teacher and knows what she's talking about. I would take any class that she offers as they're all so interesting!

This class was extremely interesting, and one of my favorites Not a difficult class, but time consuming. Each week we'd have a 40-60 page chapter, an article, a study question, and documentary. From these we would write a discussion post for the class. These posts were graded the day after they were due. There is no midterm or final.

Very interesting class. Great subject/material covered. Really gets you thinking and may challenge your beliefs! Instructor feedback/score within 24 hours. Weekly chapter reading plus handout, an article and a video. You write up a summary/critique "3 things I learned" from each item plus respond to classmates submissions and you're done.

Intro to Modern Western Paganism. Each week consists of a discussion post on the reading and weekly film and that's all. There are no essays and no midterm or final. It is a very easy class yet so much is learned about different branches of Paganism. I highly recommend this class or any class taught by Dr. Kant. She's awesome and knows her stuff!
