Comment:

I was excited to learn Anthropology but I should of taken another Professor. He is ok I guess but pretty much the only thing he taught us was the definition of Anthropology, go to youtube and watch random videos. We had only one test and 2 papers. I prefer tests because I hate writing. He is a good professor but I would of wished I learned more.

Comment:

I was not intending to take this class at first but kojo is one of the most influential professors at john jay. He loves anthropology. You watch alot of video's and movies. You write 2 papers he substitues for tests & a final paper which is 7-10 pages. Just show up and make sure he gets to know you his memory isnt the best.

Comment:

I took Kojo Dei's class close to 15 years ago and to this day he stands out as one of the most influential professors in my academic career. I wish I had taken his advice and gone on for forensic anthropology at Columbia. He always made himself available for questions after class. Im not sure where the other comments are coming from.

Comment:

Throughout the semester I thought I was doing great! The lowest mark I got on his paper was a B! I was never absent in class always participated and at the end I receive a C! I try to talk to him to change the grade he is never there! He is so disorganized! He doesn't know what he is looking for as for the work! All he does is talk about Africa. I was very disappointed and I'm appealing the grade because he doesn't know what he is doing. DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!

Comment:

You might think this class is easy because all you have to do is watch youtube videos, and write some essays. But it's not! He hardly likes anything you hand in, and just gives bad grades. So if u want to get a B or B- then go ahead and take his class!

Comment:

No textbooks, no midterms, no quizzes, no finals. 3 papers (2 responses and 1 final paper). Your presentation is based on your final paper. Attendance is mandatory (usually sign-in sheet). If you do not write the way he wants you to write, expect a highest of a B-. Hard to understand him but his style of teaching is recommended. Just participate!

Comment:

Don't take his class! All he does is show youtube videos and gives out only 2 articles so the entire semester. There are two response papers and a final research paper with a presentation to go with it. He's completely irrational when it comes to grading. Don't take a chance. Attendance is sometimes called out or sign in sheet. This guy is a mess!

Comment:

What can I say about this man? He is nice, but the course was a waste of time. Very disorganized and confused. He only stresses your final paper in my opinion. Don't buy the books. For some odd reason, he grades too harshly. If you don't write like him or agree with his points-expect a C+. What a semester. I did learn how to master you tube though!

Really easy class. Take him if you have a lot of hard classes on your schedule and want an easy A. Requires a few papers but the rest of the time you just watch youtube videos in class. More of a discussion class if anything. I haven't learned a thing from him, only the videos.

Comment:

Prof. Kojo is def. unique. he never had any lesson plans though & we just watched youtube videos all class. no need for the txtbook & doesn't give any tests but just 2 papers which were fair. Students use to always walk in after class and just sign the attendance sheet because the class would be in complete darkness while videos were running. haha

If you enjoy watching youtube videos and only do 2 papers (4-5 pages) and 1 presentation for the whole year then this class is for you, an easy A. Those are the ONLY assignments you will get in the class.

Comment:

Prof Kojo is a really easy professor to take ANT101 with......as long as you write your papers according to his own opinions. If you differ with what he believes basically expect to get nothin better than a "c". Plus you don't learn much in his class. Mostly just reviewing the daily news and talking about random issues of the day. No test given.
