Great professor, be aware that he takes a while to answer his emails. For an online professor, he is not so active in his course.

His syllabus is very accurate and as long as you do the work and discussions, its an easy A. He made learning art in 6 weeks very enjoyable. I would definitely take him again if he offered to teach other classes. No book needed, which is awesome!

Professor Seed was by FAR my favourite professor I have ever had. I am incredibly sad that he is retiring because I would definitely take more classes from him. I never took an interest in paintings or works of art (except film) before his class and because of him, I have a newfound appreciation for art :) Easy A if you put forth the effort.

VERY passionate teacher. He is funny and enjoys what he does. After this year he will be retiring and becoming an art curator. It's unfortunate that I was only able to take one class with him, he's an amazing teacher.

Taking this online class during the summer, I found it well-organized, fast-paced, and lots of work at once. Seed is very passionate about his field and he covers a variety of topics. During this course, we watched lots of videos and some reading, in which you take notes, have commentary, and discussion questions. Extra credit was given in the beg

He's a pretty simple guy. Being yourself, writing in your journal, and turning in the assignments is all you have to do to pass the class. The work is not hard at all.

Very kind professor who really cares about the students. His class was super easy and very informative. Gave weekly quizzes online that were super easy because all the answers were on the textbook word by word. Very little and easy hw. Lecture consists of analyzing history and art by having a class discussion about everyones opinions. Easy class.

This professor is fantastic! There is no textbook required in the class nor is there homework, there are 3 art critique essays throughout the semester, a midterm paper and a final. Professor Seed is passionate about art and that is something that becomes very evident. I've walked away from this class with a great appreciation for art.

On 103H, book is not mandatory. He will provide you with a series of videos that complement the book chapters. They are very entertaining. Love this class!

LOVE PROFESSOR SEED! I took his 102H class last semester. It was so beautiful and inspirational that I decided to take him again this semester for 103H. I would highly recommend Honors students to take his section. His honor project is super enjoyable. You all need to take professor Seed, he's super cool!

Professor Seed is one of the best!! His lectures are provided with lots of great information making it interesting (even if you weren't interested to begin with) and profound. I wasn't too excited to take an art history but I found I always wanted to go to his class and ended up loving it! Definitely recommend Professor Seed!

He was by far the easiest professor I've ever had. Its very easy to get an A in the class as long as you do the online homework that is assigned. The homework is super easy & interesting to do. He's very nice & provides great feedback. He truly cares about his students & the material he is teaching.

John Seed is not only an amazing professor, but an amazing person. He is a genuinely good man, who has a passion for art and loves sharing it with others. He is willing to listen to opinions from every side, and offers great information on famous artists that makes you feel like you knew them personally. Would (and will!) take again.

Professor Seed is a great teacher! With this class, you'll only have to show up once a week, give a discussion before each class, and a chapter commentary every two weeks. Other than that, there are a few projects and a field trip, which you can do online. He's a very flexible teacher, and he always starts 5 minutes late and gives 10 min break.

Comment:

Professor Seed is one of my favorite classes I have ever taken. He is very professional and knows what is fair to expect of his students. Gives options for those who cannot take time or money to go to a museum for example, for assignments. Grades are up the next day along with clear feedback. Loves when students give their opinions.
