This class isnt as easy as it seems, but if you attend all the lectures and study its not bad! I studied for 2-3 hours for each exam and got high Bs and low As on all of them. We have lecture Monday and lab Wednesday & Friday (working out). You have 3 assignments and 4 tests. Prof Duncan definitely cares though and is really sweet!

The people complaining clearly didn't pay attention or do the work. there's no 'locked quizzes' there was a pop-listening check that's not announced-duh-she told us to watch the lectures for these.

The lecture for this class was very boring. I felt like I was wasting my time being there. Aside from that, the lab and assignments for the course were beneficial and actually helped me learn things. For lab if you show up, you get a good grade. Lecture attendance is a code. Test are online and only one assignment a week.

Professor Duncan was my lecture for KIN 100. The lectures went by fast, but would be a bit boring. She does have a textbook, but I never used it and passed with a high A in the class. There are assignments each week, some are lowkey just busy work. The exams were easy. Overall, easy gen ed class, but you have to go to lecture and lab.

She is a great person and teacher. Cares about her students and is always positive. She wants her students succeed and care about themselves and is always helpful and responds usually within the same day. I recommend taking some of her classes as I learned a lot and she was very helpful with all class related topics and activities!

Super easy teacher. Lecture once per week. One assignment per week, really easy. Three tests, all take home with no lockdown browser. No pop up quizzes or anything in class, just lecture. Very very easy class and an easy A. Even if you aren't a KIN major take it instead of Health. Basic knowledge.

Extremely easy class. She is a very knowledgeable and upbeat professor, but her lectures are bone dry. Sometimes it can be a little hard to pay attention, but there is only one lecture a week along with one assignment, so it makes it worth it. Basic knowledge and would take this over HTH100. Labs are run by grad students,

Like the easiest class ever, no exams just a semester project that you periodically check in with. Kind of a useless class, but an easy A.

This class was really easy. Only 3 exams, but all of the questions were straightforward. If you take notes and review before the test, you will do just fine. She also makes her lectures about real-world things and applicable to you, so they are engaging for the most part. Attendance is mandatory though, so make sure you show up.

Professor Duncan for KIN 100 (the lecture component) was superb. She is very knowledgeable in this subject and lecture (depending on schedule) is only once a week. As long as you follow along with the lectures and participate in your Lab, you will succeed. I would absolutely suggest Prof. Duncan for KIN 100!

She is so chill. You have to show up to class but she gives you partial notes to do while listening in class and all the exams are straight from the notes.

Lectures were heavy, but she was very good at explaining some of the concepts. Exams were slightly difficult. There were a lot of short-answer questions on them.

Professor Duncan is great! Her lectures are interesting and she relates the content to our lives. The tests are somewhat difficult (lots of short answer), but they're always based directly off of the notes. She also gives partial notes for each lecture. Lecture only meets once a week and is pretty chill.

KIN 100 was fun. The lectures were very simple and straightforward, and the online exams were nothing to be afraid of. I enjoyed her lectures and they were very informative. The workouts in the lab were fun, safe, and usually self-paced. It is important to show up, as it is a large portion of your grade. Show up to both the labs and lectures.

Don't think twice about taking this, even if you are worried about class 3 times a week, trust me, there's nothing to worry about. Assignments are short and directions are good. Hardly any work to do outside of class if you play it right. Even if you aren't physically active at all, it's still just as easy as if you workout daily. Its a no-brainer.
