The material seems interesting, it is an easy course but it was hard to be engaged because of the online forum. Four tests throughout the semester and a final project with a short oral presentation and paper.

Cesaretti is one of the few mindful professors at this wack institution. He’s super calm and if you ever have any problems with class, don’t be afraid to talk him. He’s very understanding. He’s an easy grader so as long as you try, you’ll be fine. This class isn’t stressful! Readings are definitely manageable. There are four tests that are short answer based. The final paper was 8 pages and you had to do a presentation on your topic that you chose (very chill).
I do wish he structured the class in a more interactive way to foster discussion. His style of teaching is just him lecturing the entire time and it can be very dry and boring. So if you hate talking in class, you’re safe.
This mans is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Professor Cesaretti is SO kind and so agreeable. This class was pretty boring in the fact that the lecture material is just eh, but Prof Cesaretti makes it better since he is actually so adorable and nice. The tests are 5-6 questions, written, nothing major- there's a final in class presentation on whatever you want. Oh yeah also the homework is literally watching movies so that's pretty dope. Definitely recommend.
Professor Cesaretti rocks! He really cares about his students and Italian pop culture! He also is an easy grader. Do recommend.
