Individual Course Reviews
| Course Name/Rating: | |
| Course Department: | |
| Instructor: | Dalivalle |
| Instruction Language: | English |
| Comments: | It covered a lot of information, but professor Dalivalle did an amazing job of creating a narrative, selecting texts, describing art works and creating a syllabus that was very cohesive and exciting. Her lectures were incredibly exciting and fluid- probably because she herself is simply so full of knowledge on the subject of the Italian Renaissance. I participated more than I would have at my home institution, possibly because of the more intimate class size and her presentation of the material made it very approachable. We were assessed on a final paper and a presentation |
