I'm not a humanities major. I'm an information science major, and I took this course as a GenEd. Overall, he is a good lecturer. He includes everything he goes over in his slides, and he always posts them ahead of time. Lecture attendance is mandatory/grades, but it kind of boosts your grade if you go (so there's a benefit). He is a nice person and professor, but I have not asked him too many questions. However, he is flexible to change or suggestions, so never be afraid to ask. |

Professor Kass is a genuinely good person who cares about his students. The majority of the class is completing critical reflections every three weeks or so. As long as you take good notes in class and do the weekly readings (short, 2-3 articles or videos) you'll be just fine. The class isn't time consuming at all, and the final is open note and open resource. Professor Kass cares a lot about feedback and will adjust appropriately if students feel lectures should be structured better. Very adaptable, very friendly, easy class. |

I really wish I could give this professor a higher rating because he does seem like a genuinely nice person. Responds to emails quickly and was more than willing to work with me when it came to ads accommodations. The content of the class was also very interesting to me as I love art theory. Maybe it's just cause I'm not a humanities major but the constant lack of concrete answers got really annoying by the end of the class. The Weekly responses were definitely draining and the vague feedback didn't help at all. I could not consistently get above a 7 out of 10 despite trying hard and talking to the TA. I felt the grading was very subjective and often times I had no clear answers as to why I even lost points. For the midterm and final you are given the choice of either an artwork, an essay or a quiz. I chose the quiz for both. The quiz was relatively easy especially if you took good notes during lectures. He does ask a few overly specific fill-in-the-blank questions which can get annoying. Overall, I would not recommend this class to anyone like me who likes having a clear and specific rubric for what's correct and what's not. |

Really nice professor and only see him during lectures... which you have to go to get an access code for an attendance point. Discussions are once a week and honestly not too bad, you have weekly responses you have to submit that you discuss and participation is a MUST. You get to decide if you want to submit an essay, artwork with essay, or quiz for the midterm and final. Having those options are really great. Overall good class but can be confusing, not too much work and honestly would take again. |

He is very passionate and knowledgable about the material. The workload is very manageable. We had a weekly reading in which we had to write a 300-word reflection on. You have 14 opportunities but only have to complete 10 of them. Attendance to lecture and discussion is mandatory. There is a midterm and final and you can choose to complete a quiz, an artwork, or an essay. The material is really cool if you are interested in art. I highly recommend this class and this professor!! |
