    I'm taking it this semester in distanced. Lots of readings, but I can't tell you too much. Trying to pronounce and remember the names of gods takes some getting used to.

    Hey, can you please tell me what is the grading scheme for HUM 102 too?!

    There's 3 quick-write exercises that needs to be done, as well as 3 writing assignments. You get one midterm and one final exam (multiple choices and essays).

    Quick-writes: 10%
    Writing assignments: 45%
    Midterm: 15%
    Final exam: 30%

    hist 102 is a great class with mark leier. it is also sometimes taught by willeen keough.

    both spoon feed you. if you have a decent grasp of canadian history from social studies and possibly history 12 you will be fine. the class was very easy and mark has a way of making class fun like bringing in his banjo and busting out a song or two. although this was a few years ago that i took this class with mark. willeen is a very nice and approachable proff with a decent grading scheme and always willing to help. so i say go for it, but i would take it in class and not DE

    I took His 102 with Seager a couple of year ago. I found it really easy, there is really nothing hard about it as long as you go to class and do the readings. A lot of the things you learn in the class will sound familiar from high school or common knowledge.

    Hist 102 is a horrible class man. The course package was so boring to read.
