I feel that Klug doesn't know enough to teach anatomy and is trying to find his teaching style. It feels like an online class as we had to self-teach ourselves a lot of information. The class as a whole have asked questions that he could not answer. The answers we have received have all come from other students with a better understanding.

It is true that he is still figuring out his teaching style. Most of anatomy, he pretty much just read the ppt slides but then changed it up a bit when people were failing. He has review sessions before classes and pretty much gives you answers. Write them down. Pay attention when he says to remember something. Great guy, working on his style.

Do not take this class on-line unless you know a bit about anatomy currently. Dr. Klug will answer your emails but gives you attitude for not knowing the information.

Read the book, you can hyper focus on the power points but it's not a perfect substitute for the book. Pop quizes happen, but most of the time he'll hint the day before.

Dr. Klug was quite possibly the best teacher I've had at MCTC. He is super understanding about everything and gives you so many opportunities to catch up. It's a tough class and he knows it so he's very good with helping you out.

Your grade depends on how much time YOU can dedicate to it. He's upfront about the amount of work this takes and he cares about your success (shares studying strategies) & wants to minimize testing anxiety (by sending reassuring emails and dropping a lot of grades). Since there are no lectures, go to WORKSHOPS and TUTORING and OFFICE HOURS instead.

Dr. K is a great professor. His grading criteria may seems a bit confusing in the beginning, but it gets better throughout the semester. I love his quizzes as he breaks down questions in smaller sections. Although his tests and quizzes are extremely fast pace, but they are not hard nor trick questions. I hope everyone will pass with an A!

It was a ton of work for a summer class and he's not kidding when he says at least two hours a day. He does NOT lecture, which makes it difficult to grasp certain concepts. Get familiar with the weekly schedule early so that you don't miss the first assignments like I did. Drops a TON of low scores (almost half), so it's easy to get a good grade!

Good teacher and class but I would recommend to take it as a regular semester. The summer class has many concepts to learn in too short of time. It is not his fault though, since there is a standard on what needs to be taught. I didn't retain as much information as I could have due to the amount of work thrown at you in a short period of time.

Also, anatomy was a very difficult course, but he taught it in an organized way so, the anatomy he taught was very easy.

He does not lecture or teach in class - you learn from reading the book exclusively & his class time is dedicated to questions. He answers questions with your lab group, however, he'll give insight into a topic to one lab group, while the other lab groups miss out. You learn more from Anatomy professors on YouTube than from Dr. Klug.

As a person he's fine but course instructions: very confusing, took so much time rereading all he had to say that I would be confused again at the end. Structure of course: actually easy & better than all science courses I've taken. After 2nd week in this course, get ready to read 7 days of the week. Weekends: none. Workload: a lot but not 2 hard.

Emailed him multiple times: answered fast but not very clear. Has misspelling & missing info in instructions & syllabus. Atleast 3-5 tests per week, all tests are 5 or 10 questions only. Do the A&P, very helpful. In middle of semester he changes format of class: was very hard to change midway. Labs were SO easy, loved them.

Meh. I chatted with multiple people who agreed that this class was average. He gives SO MUCH HOMEWORK. He can be really rude and discouraging saying things like "most people fail this test". Why would you act that way as a teacher instead of being encouraging? His grading is SO confusing and he does not like to give clear answers in emails.

The teacher picks out what we need to learn from the textbook and presents it through slides with pictures and definitions. I found the mnemonics he used and how he referred back to past chapters helped me recall information. He offered many office hour opportunities and gave videos/readings to help.
