Dr. Galvan is a pretty laid back teach straight to the point, uses a lot of powerpoints slides. Does a great review for her lab and lecture exams. Her lecture exams are multiple choice, and true false. Very helpful when it comes to something you do not know.
Absolutely the best teacher anyone can have. Wants to see students be successful. Great teacher and fun person. Miss a day of class and you miss a lot of information.
I highly suggest you take biology 2404 Introduction to Anatomy and physiology before taking AP1. So far AP1 the class is fairly good she uses a lot of PowerPoint slides, that carries the same information from the book, as well as a lot of the same charts and figures in the book. I say she is one of the better AP1 teachers at Cy-Fair the same info
Dr. Galvan is a great teacher! She is very helpful and wants to see everyone do well. She gives great reviews for her A&P classes and also offers extra credit. A&P is a lot of work, but if you attend and pay attention you shouldn't have a problem with it.
She's a great teacher!. She really knows her subject, and she always give extra credit in the tests. Study the chapters and go to class and you shouldn't have any problem passing this class.
She cool. If you can take her class. You'll be happy you did.
Incredible person. She really wants us to learn and will do whatever it takes. She always allows us to get extra credit. She is hilarious & will tell stories about her 3 sons. She is so down to earth and has an amazing portfolio. She knows her stuff & helps her students grasp the material. The general class is a lot of info but still great class
She is nice, helpful, and approachable. She gives a lot of extra credit. Tests were not hard, she gets them from her PPT. She gives a good test review. You will learn a lot from this prof. Take her!
I am currently in her intro to A&P. She is extremely nice, good at clarifying when you don't understand something. Very helpful A&P is a lot of work, you have to understand & study. But if you do and with her help,you shouldn't have no problem passing this class. :)
Best A&P Professor. Will help for better understanding, and has AWESOME slides. Test are straight from the lecture. If you go to class you WILL pass!!
She is a great teacher & very helpful. She gives you opportunities for extra credit & really cares about her students. The information is hard & as test, so therefore she isn't an easy teacher, but she makes the info and everything available and if you have trouble, she is always open to questions and extra help.
My family said that A&P was going to be too hard for me and I'd hate it. Professor G has made it SO great. This isn't a bird course, you have to work. She makes u want to go to class, I wouldnt dare skip it. Shes fun and interesting, Lots of fun games in class too! Even if u don't like A&P if you take this class, u wont mind it. As long as u work.
Seriously the Best Professor you'll ever take. She is super easy and tells you what you need to know most importantly. Super Sweet and Genuine
Dr.G , is the Best she is very helpful will explaine it as many times as you need her to. She goes out of her way to help you take her class highly recommend her class
Dr. G is an awesome professor. I would not consider A & P an easy class, because there is a lot of info to gather. But it helps to have an instructor who able to explain the work in terms that can be understood by a novice student. I took the class as a needed pre-req, ended up enjoying it. Don't miss a day, too much info is discussed in class
Extremely helpful and personable lady. She is genuine and approachable, and very clearly knows her stuff. She is more than willing to help her students and was flexible with her office hours. She even met with me personally to discuss study skills with me when I was struggling with work & school. She is awesome!
Hands down the best teacher I had during my 2 years of college. I truly enjoyed this class. Dr. G is friendly, creative and engaging. She really knows her stuff, keeps you entertained all lecture long. She is great.
I would take any class that she is the professor. Professor Galvan is very informative and trys very hard to make sure you understand and are getting the material. In my opinion she is easy to get along with and is a great professor.
Dr. Galvan was honestly the best professor I have ever had. I just signed up for her A&P class for next semester. She's very knowledgeable and kind. Her patience is actually pretty shocking. Take her!! I promise you will not regret it :)
Wonderful Proff. She is indeed interested in her students welfare. i would recommend her to any students
Dr. Galvan is AMAZING! She is really involved and you can truly tell she loves what she teaches. The labs are fun, Her notes/powerpoints are great. Study, and you will make an A. She is by far my favorite professor so far in all my 3 years! I wish she taught Micro!
BEST PROFESSOR AT LONE STAR HANDS DOWN! As long as you go to class and study, you have an A in the bag! Material was a little overwhelming at times, but not impossible. She really cares about her students and wants them to succeed. You will not regret taking her. HIGHLY recommend.
LOVE Dr. Galvan! Took her 2401 class in the Spring 2014 semester and made an A. Loved it so much that I took her 2402 class during the 2014 Summer Session 1, with an A! She is extremely helpful, very nice, and extremely clear and exact on what you need to know. Easy A as long as you pay attention and study. I wish she could teach all of my classes!
Great teacher, she teaches you everything you will need to know for the test. If you don't study, then you will not pass tests. Quizzes are 20%, homework is 10%, a few projects, only 5%.
I love Dr. Galvan. I'm currently taking her for Anatomy and Physiology 2401, and I am taking her for 2402 next semester. She is awesome! Amazing at explaining her lectures, and everything is on PowerPoint notes, so all you have to do is highlight. She will explain things in detail and go over what will be on the test. TAKE HER!
Really great, had her for anatomy and im taking her again for a second semester for anatomy 2.
PPTs given, reviews, quizzes, extra credit project. BEST PROFESSOR EVER, 1st time back in college in A LONG while...
She is a wonderful professor and if you study and do everything that needs to be done, you will pass. I took her for both 2401 and 2402 and I am hoping to take her for nutrition over the summer!
She is a nice person and a good lecturer, but her powerpoints never seem to end. She is also a tough grader. NEVER gives partial credit. It's wrong, it's wrong. I really wish I took this course with someone else.
By far one of the best professors I have ever taken. She has all the characteristics of an amazing teacher! She helps you pass and gives great feedback. You do have to study and do your part of course, but overall a fun and easy class (if study). Take this class with Dr. Galvan, you won't regret it! I am taking her for 2402 in the fall.
Dr. Galvan is hands-down the best professor I have ever taken a class with. Be prepared to do work and make tons of flashcards over the material, but if you do that than it's an easy A. Super interesting class, and Dr. Galvan made it easier by going over each exam question the class after each test to make sure we knew why we missed what we missed.
Dr. Galavan was AMAZING! Do the homework we all know every point matters in the world of anatomy and physiology. Lectures are GREAT she tells you what questions she asks so TAKE NOTES. Labs are kind of hard but study and you will be fine. TAKE HER. never thought i would make in this class but she was perfect!
Dr. Galvan is a fantastic teacher! I took her for both AP I and II. She loves teaching her class and is so wonderful at it. She makes the class time go by really fast. This class was a hybrid class with you meeting only 4 times during the whole semester for lab. Go by her powerpoints for learning chapters and test and you will do fine.
I was ready to drop the class snd she took the time to call me and help. after attending her lab the game changed and the information started to stick. I already signed up for her 2402 class and highly recommend Cynthia Galvan. And she is quite funny too!
First time taking an online class and I am so glad it was with her! She sends out reminder emails when tests are coming up and she also replies to emails fast! Tests are not easy but also are not difficult. Must read both power points and textbook to pass quizzes and tests.
This was my second time taking A&P1 and couldn't be more happy it was with Dr. Galvan. Her powerpoints are clear, this isn't an easy class but just study them front & back and you'll be golden. This was a hybrid class so it was a bit challenging but the good thing she was always an email away! Wants her students to pass, TAKE HER!!!
If emailed for help, she is very nice and replies fast. There are 15 quizzes 30 questions each and timed on Lockdown browser. 16 homework assignments on mastering lab, 4 exams 70 questions each and a diet project. It sounds like a lot, but it honestly helps keep your grade up. Make sure you do good on tests because thats 50% of your grade.
Dr. Galvan is a wonderful teacher! I made an A, but definitely had to work for it. The course is not easy, but if you attend class, study the material she goes over, and you care about your grade enough to study, you will make an A. Loved this class!
I Loved Professor Galvan so much in 2401 that I jumped at the opportunity to do 2402 in a summer cram session. I did both as a hybrid. Some didactic is tough to swallow reading it on your own, but in the labs, she has an amazing way of getting the points across. I made my kid drop their A&P just to enroll in Dr. Galvans class, she's that good!
Professor Galvan can only be described as an incredible person. She obviously cares a great deal about her students' success, and loves what she does - which really shows during her lectures, it's wonderful! Energetic, kind, caring, engaging.. a truly rare individual. I would strongly recommend her class to anyone. Highly intelligent, remarkable A+
Professor Galvan is amazing! Truly a great person and teacher. You will not regret taking her! The class is not easy, you definitely have to work for it. But you will learn A LOT. can't say enough good things about her!!
Dr. Galvan is the beessstt. She is so honest with you about what you need to know for the test, and her lectures are the majority of where test questions come from. She tells stories and jokes in class to liven up the lectures, and always offers extra credit on quizzes and tests. She made A&P easy, so I'm taking her 2402 class next semester!
I loved her and she is such a good teacher!!
Going to be real honest here, Dr. Cynthia Galvan is the BEST PROFESSOR you will ever take! She makes the information interesting and relatable with all her funny stories. Dr. Galvan is extremely personable, intelligent, and really makes learning fun. I loved taking her for 2401 so much, I HAD to take her for 2402 as well!
Dr. Galvan is passionate about anatomy. She makes her lectures fun, exciting and the info easy to retain! Although all notes are uploaded online, you NEED her lectures. 4 tests (mc), 4 lab exams (fill in), 6 quizzes and homework over all chapters. ALWAYS GIVES EXTRA CREDIT & low drops grades. She is an amazing professor! Highly recommend!
Outstanding Professor who cares about her students. VERY organized using D2L for all slides and documents. Teaches you concepts frontwards and backwards for a through understanding of subject. Just a wonderful Teacher all around. Gives many opportunities for extra credit, do the work and you'll learn along with getting an A. Returns emails
This is a very tough class but getting started is the hardest part. Once you get your routine down, the class schedule is easy. Weekly homework assignments & tests. She opens up assignments 4 wks at a time so you can do all homework & tests at your leisure for those 4 wks. Convenience is a big factor for me & she makes this class very convenient.
She is an amazing teacher and very organized. This is a hard class but she makes it understandable. Strongly recommend her.
Solid class. Just do the assignments. Drops 2 quiz 2 HW 1 exam. Lockdown Browser for exams and quizzes and are timed. Once you answer you can't go back and change. They aren't easy. Diet Analysis project due towards the end of the semester, easy. All in all easy class. you can do all your assignments at your own pace.
I will definitely be taking her again. She has been very understanding and considerate with any problems. Overall, a great professor.
I took her hybrid class, and while her lecturing is terrible, it's a good way to take A & P, especially if you're already familiar with the material. The in-person quizzes are hard, so you need to study. She utilizes the Pearson Mastering which is an extra fee. It's easy to click through though. The tests are LONG, but have adequate time limits.
I took Dr Galvan's hybrid A&P 1 course & will be taking her A&P 2! You have a month between labs to do 4 homeworks and 3-4 quizzes. After labs you get 3 days to do the exams. Everything is done online but some in class quizzes. She has very helpful power points. Classes are interactive. She is funny & loves to answer questions. Book is a must have!
If you can pay attention to lectures and are able to take notes as you go, this class will be an easy A. She is a wonderful teacher to get to know, and cares about your success in her class as long as you're willing to open up to her. I would definitely take this class again for the teacher!
This is the best A&P teacher you can take. Dont expect to pass the class without doing the work. I took her for a hybrid class this past semester passed with an A. She has a good teaching method that makes the A obtainable. Utilize the tools she give and you will pass, you dont need to be a A&P whiz, you just have to WANT it. Shes pretty cool too
The exams and quizzes could be done at home but required Lockdown Browser. My strategy was to read the power points and do the homework before trying to read the chapter straight through. There were a few inconsistencies in the textbook, but overall it was put together well. There were online videos, practice quizzes, and downloadable MP3's.
Hands down the best Biologiy professor ever! Anatomy is a tough class, but Dr. Galvan will surely make it enjoyable and much easier to learn for you, definitely recommend her. Lots of memorization but very do-able!
Dr Galvan is very clear about the work and participation you will have to do in her syllabus. She has put her lectures in PowerPoint and that is what you will be tested on so study the PowerPoint lecture. Lab participation is a must. If you put effort in this class you will learn something and get a good grade. She is understanding too.
Throughout the course we had homework for each chapter, 4 tests/quizzes, and lab exams. She gives due dates ahead of time. She strongly encourages attendance, but it isn't required. She creates her own powerpoints & is very animated when doing lectures (she knows her stuff)! Galvan is very understanding and wants each student to succeed!
The best AP professor at lone star. She is very clear and precise about expectations. Very empathetic and wants whats best for the student. Flexible with due dates. I wish I had taken her for AP 2 but her class fills up instantly. Organized, tech savy &very animated with her lectures. Explains thoroughly and hints at important topics for tests.
Love Prof Galvan! I took her for Anatomy 2 and she was so helpful and sweet. She lectures through informative powerpoints that you can print out and bring to class to take notes on. The tests are based off the powerpoints and she narrows down what's on the test in her lectures and gives lots of extra credit opportunities. I highly recommend!!
I have never rated a professor but she is definitely worth rating !!!!!! TAKE HER CLASS!!!
SHE IS BRILLIANT! By far the best professor Ive ever had. She makes learning so enjoyable and easy. She designs her curriculum in a way that benefits students even after the class is over. Had her for both A&P 1&2. Shes hilarious as well and is always ready to help any student! Ive never had a professor feel so passionate about teaching!
I took professor Galvan for A and P 2 and it was the best decision I ever made. She is the best professor ever. She explains her lectures in such a way that anyone will clearly understand. She gives real life examples that make concept easy to grasp. She is so caring, respectful and always smiling. Study her review from d2l and you will get an A
Professor is very Easy. She has a lockdown system for each quiz and exam so make sure you use some other digital thing to google answers. All answers can be found in quizlet.
This professor uses the Respondus Lockdown Browser. This browser records both audio and visual. It asks you to show you're environment. You are not allowed to get up from the computer once you start. Taking an online class is about convenience and this is not only a huge inconvenience, it is also an invasion of privacy. Would not recommend class
Show up & record the lectures and you will get an A. She is very generous at telling you what will and wont be on the tests from the PowerPoints. A whole lot less to know than my A&P 1 Professor and you actually LEARN because she actually TEACHES. You do NOT need the lab book or textbook, only the access code for homework. No paper. Take her!!!
4 lecture and lab exams - get to drop lowest lab. Access code homework due every 3 weeks or so (easy) - get to drop lowest 2. Quiz before every exam (not hard) - drop the lowest. Group project instead of paper. No books needed. Great at teaching and is a very open person. Some group work (easy). Takes a little while to get grades back.
If you miss a class, get the recorded lecture from someone. Dr. Galvan is excellent at teaching and is constantly saying you need to know this you dont need to know this this is how a question will look. Half the class gets an A on every test. Offers 5 points extra credit on each test/quiz and provides scantrons. Class fills up QUICKLY.
Took for Nutrition 1322. One of the best classes I have taken so far! She is very responsive to emails. Lots of homework and quizzes, but totally feasible. Textbook will be used and needs to be read! Nutrition project was a simple and easy. As long as you do your work and study this class should be a breeze and eye opening!
Take this teacher ! She is amazing and I dont know if its her personality or her actual teaching but I learn so much from the homework and quizzes she gives ! I took her for a hybrid and it was amazing ! TRUST ME!
I took Dr. Galvan for Nutrition online. 4 exams plus final. Quiz and HW for each chapter. I had some technical issues with an exam and she was very nice and understanding. Her notes aren't complete so reading the book is required. I ignored her notes and took my own from the text. Exams are easy if you study the textbook. Flexible due dates.
Dr. Galvan is the best!!! I definitely recommend her! Shes very knowledgeable & replies to her emails quickly. I took her for a Hybrid 6 week summer semester. The exams were online & as well as the HW & quizzes. The labs were in person, mainly group work! Which is awesome! Take her, you wont regret it!!!
She has made this class extremely easy. She is very informative & her teaching style matches a lot of peoples learning style!. She is straight forward. You will pass if you read and STUDY!! She helps a lot, quick Email responses. Labs are in groups and are really fun! There's extra credit! THE BEST!
Took her online for a nutrition class and it was vert straightforward. Each week involved doing homework and a quiz for each chapter. The instructions for everything were so clear, I never even needed to get in contact with her. There are 4 exams and a final. One easy project as well with plenty of time to complete it.
Professor Galvan is by far the best professor Ive had at LSC. Shes so positive, funny and entertaining. Shes a very easy grader and offers 5 extra credit points on every lecture and lab exam. % worth of grades: homework 10%, quizzes 10%, lecture 35%, lab 25%, presentation 5%, final 15%. Sooo easy to pass this class. Just read the power points
Great personality, easy lecture material, easy A if you show up, read, and pay attention.
I love prof galvan!!! i drove to a further campus just to take her.. i had her for a&p 1&2 she is totally worth it.. she cares about her students and wants everyone to do well in her class the test are just like the reviews so if you go to class and do your home work you will pass easily.. take her
So I took her online course and it is pretty easy, their is a lot of assignments to do online. The only difficult thing is contacting her if you are an online student as she may take a couple of days to respond to you. Her lectures are incredible and she is passionate I recommend taking her, but I would of rather prefer to have her face to face.
Professor Galvan is an awesome anatomy teacher. She explains everything thoroughly and wants everyone to succeed in the class. Take her and you wont regret it!
Such an amazing professor. Knows her stuff. Take her!
I am in her class now her for a hybrid class where we met 5 times out of the entire semester. Attendance is a grade and she teaches other classes so if you don't make it to your day you can go to another day to still get credit for the mandatory 5 classes. Tests are on respondus lockdown browser. She's a doctor knows her stuff, STUDY for TESTS.
I just finished my Hybrid class. You meet 5 times the entire session. Each session counts as a grade so it is important to not miss. Dr. Galvan is amazing! She gives great lectures and is very caring. She's extremely knowledgeable. Take her class! You will not be disappointed!
This professor is great took her class and was very amazed by her teaching. She makes lectures easy to understand and her reviews for calss test are great. I loved this professor I wish she can be my professor for all my classes. She is also caring and understnading with students. Take her and you wont regret her
Best professor in the whole lonestar system. Period
I took her for both 2401 and 2402 and she is wonderful! She is smart, and her lectures are interesting. Clear grading, she goes above and beyond in her outlines, and lectures, and powerpoints. A&P is ALOT but she makes it easy to learn, and she is a wonderful teacher.
I took her hybrid Summer Class and it was the best class ever! I would take her for 2402 if I could! So easy just make sure you do your homework and there are some in class quizzes but she reviews before the quiz!
I took Mrs. Galvan as a hybrid class, 2401 and 2402. I was able to manage school/work and pass. She goes over things you need to remember before your lecture and lab exams so you will know exactly what you need to study for. I would of definitely took her again if she was teaching 2420.
I could not have asked for a better professor. Mrs. Galvan is truly heaven sent. She gives the best analogys & breaks everything down so youll understand it the 1st time!
Dr. Galvan is absolutely the best! she made it easy to learn for an online class, and uploaded videos going over the modules, which were good reviews for her tests! if you have a chance, take her class it is great!
Amazing teacher!! You can tell she loves to teach. Listen to her lectures, she clearly tells you everything you will need to know for the exams. Uses analogies, and explains A&P extremely well. She is fully online for COVID and has Microsoft meetings once a week for questions and goes over the weeks' lesson again with you -as if in class.
Dr. Galvan enjoys what she does. If you study her power point lectures and the review outlines, you will do well. It is alot of information and she teaches you is what you need to know for the exams. If you put in the effort, you will do well. **She just got married so her last name will be changing in the case you cant find her.
Loved Loved Professor Galvan and will definitely take her BIO 2402 class. Lectures were informational and thorough, provided lots of study material and suggestions on how to be successful. Great sense of humor, friendly and available outside of the classroom. I would highly recommend her for BIO 2401 and 2402.
Im glad I looked on this website to chose this professor. The lectures help you pass. Its not a easy class with that being said because its A&P. I will surely be taking her in 2402!
I took her class for Spring 2021. I found A&P II more interesting than A&P I. I enjoyed her lectures and weekly Teams meetings. Those weekly meetings were helpful. She gives clear expectations for her class and is very organized. I work full time and her organization helped me with my study schedule.
This class is hard, but I love A&P, its one of my favorite subject. Prof is sweet and nice! she is awesome
Her lectures were amazing, she is clear and precise with her syllabus and what is expected. I couldn't have asked for a better Biology class professor.
I will be honest. Every video chat we had I felt like I bothered her when asking questions. I would email her about things and would not hear from her until after the exam. Like I already took the test I dont need it anymore. I would ask during the class chat but she said she would respond. her face during the chat explained it all. It was hard.
She's a wonderful professor! She provides a lot of lecture materials and I LOVE them. Something is always better than nothing. If you study them, you'll success 100%, her class helped me a lot with HESI A2 exam as well. Wish I could take BIOL 2402 with her!
I met the most inspirational/dedicated professor this summer. The night before our first lecture, she had a terrible tragedy in her family. Somehow, she still showed up, delivered amazing lectures, balanced her family, held high standards with clear guidelines, and was present. She is the definition of incredible. I will forever be inspired by her.
Best professor, I have taken. If you follow her lectures, its easy to get an A. She uses respondus locker but no webcam. Her tests are super easy. If you do quiz lets, you are in good shape.
Dr. Galvan/ Silvernail is amazing !!! Her lectures are super clear and the homework isn’t so bad. She makes learning easy and the fact that her online all her lectures are recorded is amazing she actually teaches unlike others. I would take again !!
Dr. Silvernail, formerly Dr. Galvan, is conscientious, personable, approachable, and dedicated to students understanding and success. She presents subject matter in a lecture format, and encourages questions. By utilizing the textbook, power points, and lectures, she makes the material fun and understandable. Wish she taught medical micro...
Dr. Galvan/Silvernail an amazing Professor. She is one of the very few college professors who truly cares for her students and wants to ensure they are successful. Wouldn't highly recommend her if you are looking to take either 2401 or 2402. Great instructor!!
Dr. Silvernal is an amazing professor. She responded to the email quickly and answers questions right away.
She is the best teacher I've ever had in Lonestar, loved the class.
She is the best professor I have taken and cares about her students. The PowerPoints and homework she gave was very understanding. Study for the labs, do not slack on them because they are big part of your grade. She gives you everything you need to pass this class and is very understanding. Do the work she gives you and you will pass the class.
16WK Class-Prof Galvan/Silvernail is a VERY chill, understandable, and kind teacher! I enjoyed being in her class and I feel like she genuinely cares for her students and wants to ensure they're successful, especially in this kind of subject! I'll highly recommend her if you're looking to take either 2401 O 02. It's an EASY A as long as you study!!
She is the best! I took Dr. Silvernail (also known as Dr. Galvan) Spring 2022 and it was amazing! No matter what you have going on in your life, her class will come easy for you, not because you do whatever you want, but because everything is so organized. If you aren't keeping up with this class, not sure what to tell you.
Take Dr. Silvernail for A&P. She made learning a very difficult subject so easy. She lets you drop your worst Exam grade in both exams and lab exams. and drop the two lowest homework grades as well. Dr. Silvernails would record lectures every week. It was great for those of us who work the night shift as she quickly made the recordings available.
BEST PROFESSOR EVER. Do not hesitate to take her, I know A&P is hard but she makes the courses easy as a breeze. Drop 1 lowest grade for every grading section. She uses McGraw-Hill for hwk and labs. No WebCam just LockDown for quizzes and tests.
One of the best professors I've ever had! I took a 6-week session and it seemed like a lot to cover. However, Dr. Silvernail sent weekly updates letting us know how much we needed to complete. Exams are based on the outlines and lectures she provides. Lockdown browser. No camera. As long as you keep up, it is not hard to get an A.
This is my second times taking an online class with Professor Cynthia. I love her online classes. She's very organized. She spends time for lecturing every week. She She will help you success. I will be taking BIOL2402 with her in Spring. Do homework, watch/attend her online meeting, do quiz, study her PowerPoints and you will do great in the test.
TAKE THIS CLASS! She is amazing, very helpful and understanding. Assignments are not hard at all and she is accessible when you need her. Definitely recommend. All assignments are only lockdown browser.
I 100% recommend Professor Silvernail! Her lectures are great, she does a live lecture on Wednesdays so you can ask questions. She drops your lowest Quiz grade, Lecture Exam and two homework grades. She truly wants her students to succeed. Put in the work and you will get an A. I am about to take her for nutrition and I'm thrilled to have her again
Dr. Galvan was amazing! I took her A&P II hybrid class, where we worked online during the week and met for mandatory labs every Friday. She gives great lectures and cares about your understanding and success throughout the course! I would definitely take her class again!!
Professor Silvernail is a good teacher, however, the course itself can burn you out easily. Even though she lectures great, shows models, videos, etc, you eventually get tired of the word anatomy. The tests are easy but the in class quizzes are not, I would suggest to do homework and read the outline of the chapters before the taking the quiz.
First time taking Intro to A&P online and it was great experience with this professor. I followed the syllabus and did the home work and quizzes. She is very fair and drop lowest grade.
A really great, clear-cut professor. Everything is done online with the due dates being the last day of the class so the whole class is opened on the first day and you can work at your own pace. She does use lockdown browser for lab exams but with no camera. On the homework assignments, you get three times to do them. Everything is very clear.
Professor Silvernail is AMAZING! Having completed my first AP course, I can confidently say that she makes learning both accessible and enjoyable.The course materials are all on Connect, on quizlet if help need. Exams are no lockdown or camera, but lab exam is only lockdown. If I can understand and do good in AP. ANYONE CANNNN GOOD LUCK.
Dr. Silvernail is an amazing professor who truly cares about her students' success. Her lectures are engaging, and she provides great resources like recorded sessions and the ability to drop low grades. I found unstuck study super helpful for preparing. Take her class!
Dr.Silvernail is an amazing professor. She made AP1 less stressful and more easier to understand. Just take her!
I took Intro to Anatomy and Physiology for the December, Mini-semester, online. HW, quizzes, and exams were all organized. Easy class. Only lecture exams had a lockdown browser but were not proctored.
If you see Dr. Silvernails class don't hesitate to sign up! She's truly amazing. Her course is set up perfectly, you could drop multiple assignments and skip the final if your grade was high enough. Lab exams non proctored, lecture exams were(not a big deal tho TRUST). She created kahoots that were similar to the tests!
