Reviews of professor Rudolph Navarro

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I took Navarro's course, Art and Television online. The course material was intellectually stimulating. You are required to watch a few films. The films were good not cheesy. Navarro has a great way of incorporating various works of art, media and theoretical frameworks in a clear and approachable way. If given the chance, take class with him!

Let me start off by saying he has NO IDEA what he is doing. Especially for an online teacher in a pandemic. He couldn't get the date HE decided on for the final paper correct and therefore I was given fewer days to study when I could've had more. On an assignment, he claimed my answers were incorrect despite the fact I took them from the book.

Most amount of work I have ever had to do for an online elective. Very tedious work with broad rubric and harsh grading. Better off taking any other elective besides this

Do your self a favor and do not take Navarro for any class. Acts like he cares to help but really and it is always going to be the instructors word vs the students. These reviews over the past couple of years in 2 different schools speak for themselves.

I had to take this course for my art history minor and this course was beyond what I was expecting.  The terms are complex and there aren't clear definitions given.  It is difficult to understand and not much explanations.  I thought he was a tough grader, even though I felt I did the assignment correctly.  This course stresses me out.

This class was not what I expected.  I thought this class was going to be about the history of television but instead, this class is extremely philosophical.  Each week has a new philosophical theory that we go over but he never clearly illustrates so it remains unclear what each concept even is.  I do well in school but I struggled in this course.

I really enjoyed Dr. Navarro's ARH102 class, I originally wanted to have it in person, but the online class was still a great learning tool. He is very good at communication in a timely manner, gives great explanations when it comes to assignments, and his online lectures and videos are to the point and precise.

Literally the worst teacher I have ever taken. I used to have a love for art but after taking this class with Mr. Navarro I don't want anything to do with it. He asks for specific things in his homework assignments then contradicts himself entirely when grading. Find any other teacher but this one if you want a class you will enjoy and learn from.
