Class itself was super easy and non stressful, she's an alright lecturer and definitely knows a lot about the essay. THE FINAL WAS A TRICK QUESTION AND A LOT OF PEOPLE FAILED FROM IT, the final consisted of a question about religion in which you need evidence to back it up, I wrote an answer and backed it up with evidence she gave me a 50 percent saying it was incorrect no other feedback, I saw other people recieved 25% and 35% on the final. Class is super easy, but the final was very poorly worded and very unfairly graded.

This was a great class - I took it over the summer so the lectures were all over Zoom, but Professor Koh was great at keeping the class engaging. The first half was lecture based off of slides (with a lot of Turkish dramas and video clips throughout), and the second half was a discussion with 4 classmates then a whole-class discussion. The class was graded off of attendance/participation, a 2-3 page essay, and a 4-5 page final essay. The first essay was based off of a specific topic and set of readings, and the final essay was a question that had us synthesize material from throughout the course. We also had weekly readings that she summarized in class and we discussed in discussion. The workload was super manageable and she's very understanding with extensions and helping you understand the material. The material itself was all very interesting and presented clearly, and Professor Koh was great at highlighting the most important points so I felt like I learned a lot throughout the course despite it only being 6 weeks. I will say that the grading seemed a bit tougher than the other history courses I have taken based off of class averages, but the professor gives very detailed feedback on what you can improve and getting a good grade isn't tough if you put in even a little effort. Overall, I would highly recommend this class!
