I LOVE this teacher. Women's history was a fantastic class, with very good reading material. Clear and concise PowerPoint lectures, and very easy to take notes to. I had zero difficulties in this class.

Comment:
Professor Nomelli cares a lot about the material and her students, but focuses more on feeling than on substance. Her lecture on the Holocaust, for example, was one of many that contained multiple factual errors. Take good notes on her version of reality, and you'll excel; she's a kind person with a good heart and an excellent storyteller.

Her class is very tough during Covid. The assignments are locked until the very day they are due. Her lectures have an annoying hum in the background and you have to speed them up because she talks very slowly. It's difficult because of these things. That being said, she does have a lot of knowledge of history and is kind of cool outside of class.

I'm halfway through my winter semester and whenever I listen to her lectures, read or do the assignments, I don't even feel like I'm doing homework, this class is so much fun. Easiest class I've ever taken. Textbook is not really necessary but you do need to read two (short) books. Prof is super sweet and encouraging.

She was the nicest professor ever! I took her class online during Covid and so she posts all of her lectures. The first half of the semester's lectures were kind of long-ish (about an hour) and the second half were shorter (half hour). There's a couple discussions and you have to read 2 short books. She's an easy grader and super nice.

This was my second class with Nomelli and she was really good. The class is asynchronous so you do the work on your own time. She gives nice comments and feedback on everything. Definitely recommend as an easy history course.

I love her class. The things we learn as super interesting and relevant to todays society. Make sure to do all the read and answer the discussions with at least 300 words to get full credit. I bought the textbook and I have not touched it ounce. All the questions in the mid term and final are reviewed in the recorded lectures.

Comment:
She's actually a decent professor: very informative and explains things clearly. My main issue, and it's a big one, is that her lectures are AGONIZING. She talks SO SLOW, taking frequent, long pauses, and belaboring points for minutes at a time. Her tone most of the time is also as if she's lecturing a kindergarten class. Each video is just painful

No live meetings, a few documentaries to watch and simple novels to read. Assignments are straight forward. I watched the lectures at 1.75x speed and didn't use the textbook. I will definitely be taking Professor Nomelli again!

Prof. Nomelli is the GREATEST instructor at Pierce. She is inspirational, kind, extremely helpful and there was not a single moment in class that wasn't informative and wonderful. I highly recommend her to anyone, you will NOT regret it. She makes learning enjoyable and you'll walk out of this class with more knowledge than any other course.

The class doesn't have many assignments but they are due the same day. She nitpicks your work and assigns broad questions which should be open for interpretation from what you understood in the videos or books but instead aren't good enough if its not answered the exact way she wants. I've always loved history but this was a discouraging experience

Prof. Normelli is a great professor! Our class started in person but then switched to online due to COVID-19. Her lectures were recorded and able to view at any time! Her quizzes and tests were timed and open book open note, not proctored. She allows you to write your essay for exam beforehand then just submit. This is an easy class, great online!

Prof. Normelli is an amazing prof! She makes her lectures interesting! Class consisted of 4 quizzes, 2 on franklin and 2 on Douglass each about 10 questions, easy! 2 News media journals where we had to pick a current event then compare it to some event in history. A midterm and final multiple-choice and essay answer. Easy! No phones, take notes!

Was excited to take this class but it was a lot different than I thought. It's tougher during Covid and online, her assignments are locked till the day it's due and you only have that day to work on it. You can't plan ahead your assignments! so if you have a working schedule, good luck! because she doesn't have makeups and also doesn't care

She's just the best. So understanding of her students. My 3rd class with her. All her classes are structured pretty the same! A few lecture-based tests (MC & essay). 4 (1.5 page) papers on current events. You need the textbook only for the papers. 2 short primary source readings. You learn a lot from her, without stressing out and struggling.

An amazing professor who truly cares and is passionate about what she teaches. There are a ton of lectures throughout the course but they are not hard to grasp and she gives you a very fun view of women's history.
