Comment:

If you show up and print quizzes in advance, this will help boost your grade tremendously. I would recommend making a friend in the class bc some of his quizzes are tricky. Lectures can be very dry but his witty humor helps. If youre a good writer you'll have no problem with his lesson blogs & curation assignment. Keep up on the written assignments

Okay! I wish he would of made the class more exciting! Ugh! So boring, the longest 3 hours of my life. He seems nice but never stops talking. Needs to add more activities, movies, slide shows. Be ready to fall asleep. ): &everything is done online, so confusing.

Comment:

Real cool guy. Passive, mellow, funny but you have to understand his type of humor. I would catch myself laughing at the way he passively ridicules the generations of today. The whole class just sounds like he is giving a tour at an art gallery. Not the most interesting class but definitely would take it over again. Stress level low for course.

His lectures are sometimes a bit boring but he does know a lot of interesting facts. He grades pretty easy. All the quizzes are done online. Attendance is taken online but you do need to attend class to get the class code. The midterm and exam are fairly easy and as soon as you get the final project paper, start it ASAP!

history of Art--He makes you attend every class, it feels like you are there for days not hours, I would say not to take him if you like teachers that can make learning fun.

This teacher has a passion for his work and I can respect that with all my heart. He's also very funny and will help you if you need it. The quiz are very tricky so it is very important that you attend classes. Other than that, ended up with a B so it's a easy class to pass.

Comment:

I enjoyed the lectures. He had entertainment value. He made a website to aide him in his teachings. The website was a mixed bag. I liked that he posted audio recordings of his lectures. It was nice to be able to take his quizzes whenever I wanted to with no time limit, but he was too difficult with the wording of his questions. (Beware of trickery)

Comment:

Nice guy, obviously like his work. This is tthe one for you if.. You want to know about whatever subject he is teaching. Because there are a lot of writing assignments. He is not unreasonable in his expectations of performance under the workload, but he is not giving a free ride either.So if you just want to cruise and get an A this is not your guy

Fresh from graduate school, James is full of knowledge and is sincerely interested with students' understanding. Good representative of the 'new' Art History that involves critical theory.

Comment:

The photos he presents are very interesting, as are the concepts behind them. However, boring would be an understatement. The text is not needed, and I only went to 1/2 of the classes and still got an A-. Make flashcards for the slide identifications, and you'll ace the exams. Very easy grader.
