If you are not in the A school I do not recommend taking this class. It is a lot of reading and work on a niche topic and there are far easier Art history classes that cover more interesting fields. However if you do take this class, Professor Crane is a very expressive and fun lecturer, who really tries to keep you engaged with the various architectural projects through the semester. This class is much better than 1010 and it actually focuses on architectural ideas rather than specific dates and architects. The readings are very important and just as in 1010 the TAs do most of the grading, so choose the better one if there is one. However sticking with the same one can be helpful as you learn their expectations and build a stronger connection as long as you did decently before. The exams are very fast paced, but as long as you did the readings and participated in section, you will do well.
Sheila crane isn’t the most organized lady but she is really kind and is relatively passionate about this class. The course itself isn’t too difficult, it consists of 2 exams (midterm and final) a project, and participation / homework. It really depends on your TA at the end of the day (shoutout Jieun who is the best TA sorry to dox you), but if you participate in sections and talk to your ta for advice and guidance you are bound to do good in the class. Most of the exam content is reviewed in section actually and th essay is pretty much open ended with the prompt being relatively broad. I spammed the notes into a word document (although electronic devices aren’t allowed but I was in the back), and later on would just control F all the terms that would be in the exam and study them days prior. It’s better to study the concepts rather than every specific detail, although that could help too. I didn’t go to office hours much but I did go to the exam reviews which were meh. Once again it depends on luck if your ta is goated as well as how fast you can write and memorize because that’s how the exams are. Overall pretty easy class.
