Paul Cunningham

Mr. Cunningham makes history interesting. He tells corny jokes and adds in interesting facts such as the points of the two large pyramids in egypt cutting the world's land mass in half. He has a habit of making eye contact with people for a few seconds as he lectures which I've heard makes some students uncomfortable but wasn't a big deal to me. The only bad part is these videos with this hard-to-understand guy lecturing and slides but these are rare. There is no homework except to write 5 two page (double spaced) papers comparing a modern event to a boxed document in the book which is very simple. The exams are all multiple choice/true false or fill in a blank (few of these) and the final is 80 of these questions from throughout the semester. What I still remember surprises me and always makes for interesting conversation or deeper understanding of historical events. I came out of this class feeling I got my money's worth, which is a rare feeling.
