Course summary

Mixed

HIST2070 is recommended for students interested in autobiographies or self-biographies, offering a unique perspective through writing assignments. However, the course can be confusing due to its lack of clear thematic threads and low-quality readings.

Grading

Grading appears generous, with multiple students mentioning easy A's and detailed feedback from Dr. Ford.

Workload

Workload is moderate, with discussions requiring high English proficiency and a mix of book reviews and autobiography writing assignments.

Assessments

Assessment includes a midterm book review on autobiography, final project writing your own autobiography, and possibly class participation or quizzes.

Teaching

Teaching style varies; Dr. Ford is described as approachable but some students find the lectures disorganized due to lack of academic foundation in historical scholarship.

Tips

Engage with discussions and prepare for detailed feedback on assignments; unique life backgrounds can be an asset.
