Reviews of professor Ilana Johnson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Great professor! Every week there is a 150 word discussion post and class discussion, which you have to participate in at least once for credit, and one 15 question mc quiz on the weekly textbook chapter and articles. 6-7 page essay question answers for the midterm and final. Required 6 page honors research paper with a recorded presentation on it.

Anth 300 with Prof Johnson was enjoyable and easy to pass. Weekly discussion post & quiz. Drops your lowest score for each and provides extra credit opportunities. Anth 301 Lab was also easy all the answers you need will be provided in her lectures notes. Easy A as long as you turn in the work.

Good professor, class was easy for an honors course if you do the extra credit. Weekly discussion posts , a seminar style discussion, and a 15 ques. MC quiz every week. Pretty light grader, gives good feedback, and she's very understanding. Drops the lowest discussion and quiz. Short essays for midterm and final. One research paper w/ presentation.

I took both ANTH Lab and Lecture 300 & 301 this spring 2021. Very simple class, readings are fairly easy and everything you need answers for, she provides. Very good professor, would take again. Easy A in both courses!

This summer, I took Prof Johnson, and she is fantastic. The work was tedious, yet it flew by! Make an effort to communicate with your classmates so that you may help one another. You'll be alright as long as you complete your work. Prof. Johnson is thoughtful and really cares about her students. I am grateful for having had her as a professor.

A lot of reading but it really is just preparing you for upper undergrad, plus I think only Anthro majors take Archaeology so all of the topics we learn are useful. Clear grading, maybe falling on the tough side but only for papers, everything else is pretty relaxed. Pretty straightforward. No pop quizzes, routine weekly work.

I took the anth 300 course with the anth 301 lab for general ed and I ended up enjoying it much more than I expected. There is a good amount of reading but the quizzes and exams are very manageable. She is really nice and quick to respond when I needed help. Overall it was an easy A and I would definitely recommend.

Everything is due Friday by 6pm. I went into this lab blindly without taking ANTH 300 first, and was surprised by how easy the lab was without the 300 knowledge. I felt like I learned more in the Lab than the actual ANTH 300 course (diff professor). Overall Johnson was great and she provides you everything that you need for success in class.

I took it online, easy class, a handful of super short 5-10 question quizzes every week (all open note), an activity, and a discussion. Very manageable courseload.
