Genuinely very nice but does not know how to teach students. Her slides have way too much information and literally looks like abstract art with pictures and long paragraphs in tiny font. She just talks for the full 50 minutes and expects us to be able to follow what's going on the whole time. If you're gonna lecture the whole time, at least have slides that summarize main ideas. Assignments are easy enough to get a good grade, but anything I ever learned from this class I taught myself or learned in discussion with the TA (who is very knowledgeable and great in general). |

She is a nice teacher and a nice human. She is super understanding regarding assignments but I needed that understanding because the structure of the class is not great. Lectures feel just like the teacher is talking at you and provided slides are super hard to follow and badly formatted. Many times I feel like I am behind in the class and truly just have to self study the material. Also, the structure of the class is weird and I am always confused on information such as structure of exams. Only interesting if you already have an understanding of Islamic history, otherwise it is hard to follow. |

She's amazing. She's so understanding about literally everything and her lectures are so interesting. She makes you want to know what else she has to say. Also, she is very accurate in her teachings and makes sure that the people she is teaching are all heard and understood. The poets, authors, artists, etc. There are times when it is hard to understand certain assignments, but all you have to do is ask and she will help you. If you need an extension, she'll give it to you. You just have to talk to her. Attendance isn't mandatory but I recommend you go. Please take her!! |

Dr. Schine was a great professor, and the class itself wasn't too difficult either. All of the assignments (which included a map quiz, definition quiz, midterm, and final paper) were graded fairly and related directly to the course material. As long as you put effort into the assignments, an A is definitely achievable. Dr. Schine's lectures were very easy to follow and contained a lot of interesting information. Attendance in lectures isn't crucial as she posts the slides to ELMS, but I would recommend attending still as she's a great lecturer, and attendance is taken for discussion. Dr. Schine is also very sweet and understanding, and very knowledgable about Islamic history, so I would definitely recommend taking her for this course. |
