Winter 2024 - Zeleny's class is perfect for people who want to pursue a career in history. While she does have lectures on the topic of science, the class is based on projects that help you with understanding historical materials. She teaches you how to do the metadata, description, and interpretation. She is a wonderful professor and dedicates multiple lessons on doing the work in class so that you can go ask for help. As long as you follow the directions and do a little research with materials provided with the class, you can easily get 100% in the class. Most assignments are complete/incomplete, but the ones that are number-based are easy to get a 10 on. I recommend all her classes.
