Student Comments

What did you like about the class? How could this class be improved? Add any comments about the class and/or the instructor that you feel might he helpful or useful.
It's depth.  I was very good - Thanks.
Go into the Civil War a little more.
The class was fast paced.  For anyone interested in taking this class, they should be sure to read the material and take the computer quizzes.
Last class I asked for more pre-typed outlines, you're getting there
Rounded out my knowledge of history ability to compare certain aspects of "now" with "then"
I don't think there's much need for improvement.  It's tough to make a 3 hour class interesting and I think under the circumstances, Mr. Escobar was very effective in his teaching.
Interesting.

The use of notes and videos to clarify things.  His notes were beneficial, also computer quizzes were helpful in reviewing and easy to access, convenient for me.

I didn't.
