Feedback
“An interesting course which gave us the opportunity to discuss with classmates and teacher. I really like the learning atmosphere.”
“I came to learn the names of many art history scholars and their research areas – these are things I never knew before… I thank the 40% participation rule. Really intimidating at first, but… Sometimes we just need a little push, I think. I now feel more comfortable when speaking in all of my classes.”
“The course is very well designed with inspiring readings, thorough and in-depth explanation.”
“This course is very intensive and there are lots of discussions going on in classes. I like the field trips.”
“The course is well-organised. By looking at the different approaches and methodologies scholars have been using, I got a better picture about the discourse of Chinese art history. The course is meaningful as a final year programme.”
“The course is systematic and organised. I like the presentation part most as by reading my peer’s work I got a precious chance to learn and reflect .”
“I can learn more about the theoretical practice in art history which I have rarely came across before.”
