Reviews of professor Dominic Aquila

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Very easy to talk to and is always open to any questions and each of his lectures shows that he really knows what he is teaching.

Wow, Professor Aquilas. There's a lot of readings, and they are very time-consuming. He's a very knowledgeable man, though, I'll give him that. The class isn't too bad, but the amount of reading can be overwhelming if you have other classes. Also, during class, he likes to have your full attention, so no phones or laptops are allowed.

Professor Aquila is good at teaching his lectures on each module but be aware that a lot of required reading is needed for this class and It is very time consuming. Each week you have to do a class discussion post where you have to do a 250 word post and respond to 2 classmates with cited sources. Timed quizzes are also a weekly thing!!

This class is memory-based; take all the notes and read everything but it will not help; Purposely makes sure to mix questions to confuse you; less than a minute to answer on the major exams( Multiple choice within multiple choice is more than one question sir!!); will bring your grade down significantly; does not even care to offer extra credit.

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Lots and lots of reading, then a lot of writing. Each week is a 250 word discussion post that has to include sources, then 2 responses at 150 words each to classmates, then a timed quiz. Rinse and repeat each week. On top of that, you have essays to write every couple of weeks, then midterms, rinse and repeat for a nightmare of a time sinking class

I had Dr. Aquila for United States History since 1877, and he is the REAL DEAL when it comes to History. He takes attendance seriously. His quizzes are online (fairly easy) and will give you plenty of time to complete it. The midterm and final were easy because he will let you know exactly what he wants. Overall, it's a doable class.
