I took his class in the winter term. It was awsome. 2 weeks and I was out of there. Plus the gym was closed so we just had to "Log in the hours we spent working out at home" Coach Stanson was a good coach. Very nice and understanding. Easy.

C'mon people, if your seeking advice for gym class you must be lazy. He is easy. I got caught cheeting on my Gym log-in hours and he gave me a second change, I made a B because unless you attend the one study session, the final was actually really hard.

He was so easy and really nice! His class was an easy A!

Mr. Stanson is very helpful. He gives you all the tools necessary for an "A". Loves what he does. I took him over the summer.

He really wants you to get an A!

MAY BE TO LEARN ON GEM STAFF NOT TO GET AN EASY A.

One of the core classes is PE so you have to take it. it's so easy though. all you have to do is go to class every monday and just get 32 hours of gymn time. i took him over the summer. it's really easy and he's very nice. easy A for sure.

very laid back and easy...1 test and its no big deal

Awesome teacher! Great guy, willing to work with you! Distance learning is easiest through him! Take his class!

It is a lot of work just for a one hour class. But he is an alright teacher, you have 3 online openbook exams and weekly reports. If you are self paced, just stay on schedule and you will get an "a". He also gives some credit for makeup work.

Took his winter term class. All the people whining about all the work: the class has the same amount you'll get in any DCCCD PHED class (I tried once before at BHC.. ugh) and it isn't all that much. Fortunately, Stanson's instructions are clear and the assignments are not difficult, just a little time consuming. Good teacher, nice guy.

Very easy class. It's just his assignments are a little time consuming but that's all. There is nothing hard about this class. An easy A.

Very easy class. Great teacher. His assignments may take a long time, but they are not hard and mostly simple math like calculating body mass index, etc... I really liked his class and I wish he taught more classes. I took Winter Term and I highly recommend it, because you can finish all of your assignments/labs in the first week of class.

Very easy class. I took it online and would not do it any other way. Assignments were not long maybe 15 minutes once a week. Take the class.

Awesome professor and very easy class. You have to be very lazy to make anything less than an A in his class.

Very good teacher. Good text, good encouraging attitude! Excellent in every way.

Stanson is motivating & helpful, even in the online class. We met once at the beginning of the semester, and once at the end for fitness evaluations. You keep exercise logs for 10 weeks & do other assignments throughout the semester. I definitely benefited from this class. It is only 1 credit hour. If you follow your routine you will get in shape.

Stanson is great. Lots of assignments but they were very short and simple! Easy A if you turn in all your work! Make sure you do your comments!! Very important! Great guy. Fun!

Great instructor! Very motivating, and intresting, easy, free,free, free book on line!! Do your assighnments and you should do fine. I did this in weintermester on line. Best thing I did!

TONS of reading for online class--pretty excessive for an intro to physical fitness class. As long as you read read read and do your easy assignments, should be an easy A!

He's a nice guy, but it's not easy to make an A in his class. You have to go to the library or get online and read the textbook(it's not available in the bookstore). There's a lot of reading involved and paper work. If you get a little behind, there's no catching up- I ended up dropping. I would go with one of the easier teachers, like Prof. Stone.

I took this class online and during May-mester. There was no text book to buy, the files were provided online. As long as you do the work and read the text there is no reason you can not pass this class.

Took this online class in the Maymester, as long as you turn stuff in on time there isn't a reason you shouldn't get an A in the course.

Best teacher ever! Very enthusiastic, clear and helpful. Very flexible and understanding. I loved this class, I learned a lot. Text book is free, online short videos are very helpful. You would really like this class. Take this professor, he is the best!!!

This professor is simply amazing. You actually learn how to work out, and what foods are good for you, health wise. I've learned so much from this class. As an added bonus, the text book is free. Definitely take him because you will actually learn about physical fitness and how to live a healthier life. Do the tests and logs, you should get an A.

Easy online class. Lots of reading but you'll see what I'm talkin bout. For tests, you can open up the documents and check your answers. Keep up with exercise logs and assignments. Easy A. he is also helpful and interacts with his students.

If you need a PE credit, Stanson is your man!! The class was an informative and exciting one! He surely knows how to make exercising fun and the online format is fabulous! Do the work and the class is a breeze!!! Peace out Red Panda

This is a good class to take. I really enjoy J. Stanson

I took the online course. It's an easy A as long as you do all the lab work and the two tests. The labs are time consuming but they are still really easy and the tests are pretty simple as long as you read the free text book he provides. He was really nice too!

Teacher is cool. Very quick to respond. Test are easy, Labs take a little time. Took online and it was a breeze

Easy A as long as you complete the labs on time. A free online textbook is provided and the tests came directly out of the book.

EASY A as long as you turn work in on time. I took this in Maymester and it was by far the easiest class I have had. You actually acknowledge what you eat and how to work out correctly. Just be sure to fill out the comments! And like everyone else said.. the text book is online-FREE!!!!!! Very motivated instructor.

really cool prof, easy A, easy lab,easy test, everything is easy.highly recommend!

SUPER DUPER MEGA EASY! Attendance is mandatory. Assignments are a piece of cake. The only thing you need to worry about is the 40 hours of gym required. Extremely easy made an A. Its ridiculous how easy this class is. Just do your easy,easy, easy assignments and your guaranteed 100% A.

If you want an easy A, take this class.

I took the online class. It was pretty straight-forward. Do the work, get an A.

Replies to emails quick, grades quickly. Provides book. Easy class!

oops I mean PHED 1164 not 1406. Replies to emails quick, grades quickly. Provides book. Easy class!

This professor is really cool..do the assignment and you will make an A. I take this class online for Summer 2. He is awesome and I loved his encouraging words and quotes for the day.

Wonderful Prof! Loved the weekly reminder/encouraging e-mails. Easy class but you learn A LOT! Easy A.

Easy, Easy, Easy. I took this class online; it is very straight forward and simple. Do the work and you will get an "A". He sends inspirational quotes all the time and even allows you to call and talk to him if you are confused about the assignments. Great Guy!

Awesome teacher. Very helpful and understanding if you are having any difficulties.

Loved, loved, loved this class. Made a very easy A and with the way the syllabus is set up, I was able to finish 90% of the work in the first 10 days of Summer I classes. Dr. Stanson is awesome, loved the daily motivational quotes.

I think he is GREAT! I took an online class. There is a lot of work, but he is so helpful,straight foward and motivating. He also provided a free textbook in the class I took. As long as you do your work, and do quality work,your grade will be good.The class actually inspired me to be healthier too.

Stanson's online class was really great. His assignments are super easy. The only time I had an issue was not being able to read one of his formulas clearly because of the way he typed it. Despite that, I still earned enough points to get an A. When you earn enough points for the A, you're finished, you don't have to turn in anything else.

Prof. Stanson is a very motivated and passionate instructor. His enthusiasm is contagious, even in an online course. The only way to fail this course is to not participate at all!

Took as an online course. Very glad that I did - as I was able to complete much of the work early in the term, and only the exercise logs needed to be done throughout the rest of the class. Learned a lot! Highly recommended.

I took this course online. He is quick to email you back if you have any concerns and sends out a weekly email with quotes. There is also an online textbook provided. Turn in everything and you're guaranteed an A. I would take him again if I needed to.

GREAT. Very helpful, motivated,responds to questions quickly. Online book

Took his online jogging course. Loved it! He was very helpful if I had a question and was very informative in his weekly emails to his classes. Do all your work and it'll be an easy A! Loved the quotes in his emails. Very inspirational! Would recommend him to anyone who needs a Physical Education credit!

Mr. Stanson is the most awesome instructor. I took this class in the winter semester online so it went by really fast. Mr. Stanson answers emails really fast and is very helpful. He got me exercising again and I feel good. Take his class, you will be glad you did!

Great instructor! Took this course online winter semester, very easy. All work is posted so you can finish ahead of time. He is very encouraging, loved all his inspirational quotes. Helped me keep in shape during holidays!! I recommend this class.

What can I say? He's awesome! He (sometime tries) to work with you as much as possible. He is kind, responds within 12-16 hours, is crystal clear on what he wants you to do in order to be successful, and supports you even more than your family! great guy

I took the Beginning Walking class for Maymester. All of the work is displayed at the beginning of the class (besides the Test). The work is easy and simple. I finished the class a week early. I highly recommend this class to anyone who needs that credit without working too hard. There are only 2 tests. Leave comments on the work to make him happy.

I took this class online for the winter term (2013-2014) and did great. He sends out emails constantly, provides the book online so you don't have to buy it and is very enthusiastic about his job. He's a great teacher!

I just completed the fast track online class for Spring 2014. I made an easy A because Professor Stanson gives examples on the correct way to do your assignments. He sends out daily emails to remind you what is due and encouraging words.You can tell that he loves what he does!

He is a great professor. The class is very easy all you have to do is read and exercise the chapters were short and easy to understand. Overall it was great summer class.

No book needed for this class, but you will do some reading online. There are LOTS of assignments, but they are easy. Some require a bit of time, but it's not impossible.

Took his online walking class for winter term. As long as you follow the guidelines and turn assignments in on time you'll get an A. He likes comments on exercise logs and all that so be sure to provide details for those. Sends emails almost every day. Free online textbook. Not much work, I didn't have any problem with him.

Great professor! Taking this class actually helped me learn something and motivated me to go to the gym. Not many tests but you will have to set goals for yourself and stick to a diet and exercise plan. Everything is very easy though, just check your schedule everyday, especially in fast track. Overall, awesome teacher, awesome class. Book is free.

Easy to earn A if that is what you are looking for. Assignments are easy if you follow a format of example assignments. Only one exam which offers 3-time to attempt. One easy essay which is without grading grammar. You would get a second chance to re-do your assignment if you ask before due day . Solve you problem when you need help. No text-book.

I took this class in the May Semester and I have to say it was pretty easy. He gives examples of how he wants our assignments to be done so there won't be a confusion. You do not have to buy a book for this class, it is provided online through e-campus.

easy a just do the work.

I took his course online and wasn't expecting him to be as involved as he is. Every day of the class he would send an email reminding us of what assignments were coming up and have an inspirational quote at the end. Very fitting for the physical education course. Also very easy grader. ALSO textbook online and free!!!

Took his class for Maymester! I can say for sure that Professor Stanson is a friendly, super nice, and really fun teacher! I would take a class with him again anytime and would recommend him to anyone. :)

Professor Stanson is one of the best professors I've ever had! He is very nice and helpful, and he truly cares about his students. He even has his book, which is the textbook for the class on Blackboard for free. I took his class online during Maymester, and I got an A. It is an easy class and it really motivated me to exercise and eat healthier.

Not a hard class at all. He gives examples of how he wants assignments to be completed. You don't have to buy a book for the class-he provides it online for free.

He was my first online professor! He made the experience wonderful and he's very involved in the class even though it's online hehe it's hard for a couch potato to get away without exercising even if it's online lmao trust me- I know! The good thing is that he wont make you anything that you can't handle. Everything's personalized. He's so nice!

Extremely easy online fast track class! All you really have to do is keep a tracker of workouts you do throughout the week and the foods you eat. I cant see how its possible to make below an A in the class. He emails you the day that assignments are due and includes inspirational quotes in all the emails. Take his class!!

Excellent communicator. Took him in Wintermester online. He responds quickly to questions and grades quick. Textbook is free and digital. Good instructor!

Easy A if taken during winter semester. Just do the 2-3 assignments and that's it!

Grades your assignments within 24 hours! Clear cut and easy class! EASY A

Great professor! Sent out an email to all students almost on a daily basis as a reminder or just to encourage you to keep trying. Do your journals and you will be fine.

Sends out an email everyday with reminders of due dates and with inspirational quotes! He grades assignments quickly & gives comments. The textbook is free. He provides it for you. Keep track of your workouts & do the assignments & you'll be fine! The workouts are personalized to you, so it's not bad. I would totally recommend him to anyone!!!

I took this class over the summer. The assignments were very easy but VERY time consuming.

Please make a calendar for all assignments. This is a given "A" if you do all work. There are no excuses for getting less than. He's very professional and understanding. Emails are not needed and if you read syllabus, assignments, and weekly agenda you will not miss anything. You are allowed to work fast past. Just meet deadlines!

Took it online, you get all assignments at the start of class and can work at own pace. He graded everything I turned in within 24 hours. WOULD LOVE to take this professor again. Not difficult at all, each assignment takes less than 20 minutes

I took this course as a flex term class. Class was super easy and professor was very inspiring! Take his class! No textbook needed... Easy A if you take him!

Should take his's class. He's a good teacher!!

Great on line class! Would do it again. Easy work, gives you plenty of time to complete and communicates well.

Professor Stanson gives clear grading. Easy work. Just don't fall behind, 50% penalty for late work

Professor Stanson teaches this class with passion! His emails are amusing to read and his assignments are organized well. He also reminds you of due dates and adds in more information about the subject. Had fun taking this course online and got so much out of it. The book is provided for you online with no purchase.

Great Professor! Very upbeat and ready to teach. You can tell he loves to teach and what he do. Easy A. Just do the work. Every morning there is an inspirational quote.

Awesome prof. Took him during flex term online and aced it with minimal work. Would definitely take this guy again. Take him!!!

Took the flex term, only 8 weeks. No textbook purchase required. He starts off every morning with an inspirational quote. You'll keep exercise logs each week. Super easy class! Easy A, just do the assignments and turn them in on time. I would definitely take him again!! You can tell he really enjoys his job!

Took online and was very easy. Not too many assignments! The teacher was great.

I took his online course. He gives you good feedback and gives you half points for late assignments. He is very clear on what he wants you to do for workouts and plans to make you a healthy person overall. You can work ahead and finish early. I would definitely recommended.

Professor Stanson is a very good professor that gives feedback and is ready to help whenever you need it. He gives inspirational quotes everyday that really motivates you. Took his class in may wasn't hard at all. I would take this class a hundred times if needed. Very easy A.

Awesome teacher. Very organized. He seems to really care about his students. Would definitely recommend him.

Great professor, very informative, and cares a lot about physical education. I took this class online during summer 2 and very easy breezy if you want to knockout a credit course. I very much recommend him!

This is NOT the typical PE type class . There is a lot of work based on other classes BUT you will learn a lot. It isn't hard just more than you might expect.

I took PHED 1164 online- it's a great course and super easy to get an A if you turn in your assignments. He motivates you and is a really great PHED Professor! You def need to take his class if you need the credit!

His online class is easy, and everything is put up before the start of the class. The grades are put in using the point system. You can do things at your own pace, but there are specific deadlines for everything.

easy p.e. class.

I had a great time participating in the online course. The class was very informative and the professor was awesome. I would definitely recommend the class to anyone.

I took it in the winter; online and it was an easy A! he was super easy and i finished my assignments in like 2 weeks... you should take him!

Very motivational in his messages! Do the work and you'll get an A!

Professor Stanson is a great professor. He is quick to grade, his class was easy to understand, and the book is free and online. Do the homework and give good notes and you will get an A. Would recommend this professor to anyone! He was great!

Professor Stanson is great professor. He grades your assignments quick. The textbook is free. If you do all the work you'll get a A. I finished his class in 2 weeks. I would recommend him! :)

This is one super caring instructor. Above all else he clearly wants you to be educated on what it means to live a healthy lifestyle. I would take Prof. Stanson again in a healthy heartbeat! Just be sure to submit your work on time or ahead of schedule. ***I loved that he allowed us to work ahead of schedule.

Lets you remake late assignments.

For a core curriculum class we all have to take, he makes it bearable. Not too many assignments. He just wants you to try. Allows late work for partial credit just in case. Super nice man, although he seems to send a daily email which is a bit much. LOL He's great, though.

Love professor Stanson. Took him during a wintermester and was able to maintain an A. He even send out a daily message via ecampus that may get sent out to your email it contains whats sure and what hes expecting, even has an motivational quote.

Professor Stanson was really clear about his expectations. He outlines the course due dates with a calendar. No textbook required, just some light reading which youll be tested on. Fitness and nutrition logs are part of the curriculum. Class motivates you to get in shape!

Just finished this course, a super nice professor. Sent out an inspirational email every morning and would grade assignments within a day. The class is very easy and you can learn a lot from it. Would take him again if I could!

I just finished his fast track semester. It was very easy, the first day i felt overwhelm, but i finish everything in two days, the only thing that takes longer are the logs. The semester consisted in: 2 quizzes (one of 5 questions) with 3 attempts each, 3 discussion boards, 2 logs, a fitness plan, 1 essays, and 3 labs. He grades every day.

This class was amazing. Professor Stanson is very inspirational and gives you motivation quotes every week. What to expect in this class is that there are 15 assignments to do , very easy just follow the syllabus.

Professor Stanson is great, seems like a pretty cool guy, from online perspective at least. Overall easy class being PHED, just do the work and get an A. I did learn some new things. He gives you updates frequently, super fast grader(usually same day you submit). Has some great quotes that he includes in announcements.

I took this class during winter term online and I definitely recommend professor Stanson. There is not that many assignments, and he is an easy grader. He sends reminders everyday. I would definitely take him again.

You won't regret choosing this professor. He grades assignments extremely quickly and usually gives full credit as long as the assignments are completed. You could finish all of the assignments in one day if you really wanted to except for the exercise and food logs (but they're very easy).

Great professor! Sends his student inspiring videos and quotes. Very encouraging. Genuinely cares for his students. I wish he taught all subjects!!! Weekly workouts that we want to do, at our own pace. Just make sure your assignments are on time. (If they're late, its 50% off the grade)

This is a really simple class. You can work ahead. He grades super fast, like within the hr of posting. Clear instructions. Your grade is really completing the assignments. There is a research paper and only wants 150 words. Everything is based off your own views of getting in shape. 3 discussion post and respond to 2 classmates. Take him!

Best Professor for PHED. His class motivates me to do exercises regularly. Almost 90% students got A in this class. It's simple- just follow his instructions.

Stanson was overall a really good PE teacher. He would email us every week to remind us of assignments and give us inspirational quotes as well. The class is very easy and can give you a lot of ideas of how to better your physical health.

I took his online class, so I never met him but he radiates positivity even through email! I took the 6week class, and he emailed us everyday with inspirational quotes and was super supportive and knowledgeable! I wish all professors were as positive as him.

prof. stanson is a very sweet and caring professor. all of his work was easy and encouraged you to maintain a healthy lifestyle. he very clearly knows what he's talking about, but there were some concerns. if you suffer from an eating disorder, please DO NOT take his class. calorie checking and restrictive diets are discussed.

Amazing Professor. I would definately take him again. Probably one of the most caring TEACHERS I've had before. He took the time to leave a comment on the assignments that i've submitted so far, and sends reminders each day before an assignment is due. He has this daily quotes and he sends them out on certain days. Honestly an inspiration and made

Professor Stanson is very fair in his grading. you can do all your work early and grading happens typically within 24 hours of turning in assignments. there is a lot of homework for a 1 hour class but I also took it in 8 week so it was faster paced. Complete manageable but you need to keep up with your assignments. Easy A highly recommend.

Very easy professor. Took him for summer PHED1164 online. 3 discussions that are easy, an easy small research paper (250 words), everything was online. He also sends daily quotes for motivation. Also, there are exercise logs that you have to complete as an assignment, easy to do. If I were to take PHED1164 again, I would go to this professor.

took his online PE course for the maymester. very easy course with assignments that take max an hour to complete. you could finish his course in a day. he sends announcements every day with quotes and reminders of what is due. no reason to fail his class

The assignments are extremely tedious. The textbook may be useful for some of them, but in general, you don't need it. He sends emails every morning reminding you of upcoming assignments. He's an easy grader. You can work ahead. As long as you pace yourself, keep track of all assignments, and put in the time, you'll be fine.

You might as well take this class as a 8-week term. Its easy and not much stuff to do. He posts examples on how he wants each assignment done so we don't get confused. Easy A+ as long as you follow his examples and turn in on time. Let me warn you though, any minor convince he takes off 5 points, so just do what is told!

I took Professor Stanson back in Fall of 2022 online for an eight week course, he had everything up in the course from the book of the class to the quizzes, homework, and discussions. The test are 100% from the book, the amount of work for a eight week course was completely doable, he answers emails completely understandable, recommend 10/10.

I took this class online. It was one of the easiest courses. I was able to work ahead because the assignments were so easy. It may be time consuming but they are extremely easy.

Easy grader and lesson plans are very enjoyable! He is a very passionate and caring teacher. He answers emails very fast and I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is taking PHED 1164.

I loved Professor Stanson. He was very caring to my eating disorder on not wanting to weigh myself or track eating and instead took my mental health journals and progress journals instead. He got to my emails at a timely manner and was an easy but fair grader. Would take him again. If you are looking for a prof this is the one.
