Reviews of professor Esther Laskin

Her online courses are why I declared a minor in Judaic Studies! Don't be fooled by the course numbers; JST 303 is easier than JST 110! JST 303 is more like storytime, and you can copy and paste notes from JST 110 since the exams are open notes! JST 303 is a very easy Tier 3 course, and JST 110 is a reasonably easy Tier 2 course!

I took this class A-SYNC as a W course and I wrote nothing. There was a weekly 10 questions multiple choice quiz for a poem about judaic studies. After 3 quizzes there is a 20 multiple choice question quiz. There was 3 exams and 4 quizzes but there was supposed to be 3 more quizzes and exam but we ran out of time.

I took this class as asynchronous. Super super easy. So you need the book, BUT i never used it because she'd send out her notes on each section we'd read so i'd just use those. Then when it came to test they were open note and open book and I still only used her notes and I was totally fine everytime. TAKE THIS CLASS. The teacher is a sweetie too!

Great professor and seriously such an easy A! Limited homework, just reading then test every couple weeks which was only 5 test for my spring course! I am taking another class she teaches ASAP!

This class was async. Reading material given on a Friday and quiz due the following Wednesday. She gives the quiz with the material. 4 tests on the material she gives and her online recorded lectures. Not too difficult but you have to think and interpret the question at times. Prompt grader and responds quickly to questions. I would take her again.

Professor Laskin was a great professor. The subject matter is interesting and she gives great chapter notes for exams. ALways emails you to remind you about assignments and is inclusive of all.

You read stories and take easy quizzes on them, and you have to write a couple papers as well. The papers always have outlines and are usually pretty short if you follow the outline closely. I think we only had about 5 this whole semester. Super easy class and very interesting. Professor Laskin is very sweet and passionate about what she does.

I took this as an asynchronous course, if you are looking for an easy class this may be it, tests were open note but there were only 4 so each one counted, this professor is great and so kind, she always responds promptly and wishes you well at the end of emails, easy course but lots of reading!
