Mr. Hazard is knowledgable in the cardiac rehab area. He is good for the class he is teaching, but sometimes is a little behind in specific areas such as nutrition, or exercise concepts. He is great for general knowledge, but if you're looking for more specific, take that class.

Mr. Hazard is a great professor! He gives about five exams and drops the lowest. You have one final, one research paper which is one page per week of class totalling about 16 pages. Make sure to do a page per week or you'll regret having to do about 10 pages from the previos 10 weeks in one day. Easy extra credit, I got an A.

This class is just ok. Hazard seems to care about students but he only teaches one side of some topics, and he will not allow student to speak on the subject. I found the 18 page report/project somewhat difficult and quite time consuming but his tests are easy and there is plenty of extra credit.

Very nice, encouraging professor. I took his online class, it was a breeze. He gives you powerpoints that goes over just about everything on his tests, then you post each week on the discussion board (easy), the 18 page project is just a weekly journal that is very simple, and not time consuming if you do it each week (req'd online). Nice teacher!

I took his online class and I honestly think he shouldn't be allowed to teach it. I've had points taken off my grade because he "couldn't find" my discussion board posts even when I directly linked to them. He also takes down the old db every week so proof is hard to come by. He's obviously not competent with computers.

Easy class. Test questions are basically given to you on the study guides. Plenty of extra credit. Powerpoints available online. Funny, but sometimes inconsiderate teacher. Rambles on too much about his personal opinions & beliefs. You get extra credit for having perfect or near perfect attendance. Not very politically correct. Boring and too easy.

Would take again

I like this class so much, it was fun to take, you learn a lot, this professor is fun, most of the time we just watch videos and write about it and those are points that help to the grade as well, book is required but you can buy it on amazon for cheap.
