Reviews of professor Michael Burger

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
You can see how much he cares about the subject making him a great advanced teacher but if you just want a easy pass then go somewhere else. 6 essays to write plus another 9 for the exams. 3 exams and all of them have 3 questions you must hand write in a essay form. Only thing multiple choice are the pop quizzes.

I did more work for this class then my in person classes combined. There is so much work for this class, and the lectures are so time consuming, but you cannot skip them because the quiz questions are based straight on the lectures. The tests are very difficult because you are basically writing essays for each answer. Do not take the online class.

Really enjoyable and informative lectures. Puts a lot of emphasis on critical thinking but teaches you how to apply it effectively. Very helpful and nice, just watch out for pop quizzes. Do the readings (which aren't very hard) and you'll be ready for them.

1/2 RUN!! Dont walk-RUN away from this class if you have to!! DROP IT!!! It has been my biggest regret! He is VERY difficult! The lectures are pre-recorded and are hours long (SERIOUSLY!!!) all for you to have a 5 minute,5 question quiz on things that are worded very difficult! Not easy at all! The mini essay directions arent clear!

He is an extremely tough grader. Nothing you  write will satisfy him. If you want to end up hating History, with a passion, then this class is for you.
