This class was fully online so her lectures were recorded, but they were informational. Homework breakdowns every week, SOAP notes, discussions every once in a while, and video pronunciations every once in a while. HIGHLY recommend getting a pdf of the book so it's easy to search for what you need. Barely any extra credit but I didn't need it

The homework/exams are not difficult and I am applying what I learned outside of class. She also gives us frequent announcements, which is like the bare min. for online profs.

Every week there are 4 hw assignments and a quiz. 4 discussion boards, 4 pronunciation videos and a midterm/final.

Her lectures are always straight to the point and usually never go over an hour but you do have to watch them as she drops quiz questions in them. Would 1000% take her again.

Wende Hargrove knows her subject. She teaches with efficiency and clarity. The best thing about her style was the timely response to grades. She was quick to respond if you did something wrong and explain why. I would definitely recommend her to others for this class. One of the best classes I have taken

very straight forward. Every week you read two chapters, 1 quiz for each chapter, and some word building/lab type assignments. The only challenge may be the pronunciation HW where you meet with a pass peer and pronounce about 5 medical terms/wood roots. hard fitting this in my schedule since you have to find a time to meet with the pass peer.

Also, she is very nice and sometimes cracks jokes that are very funny. Homework is really easy to understand, but memorizing the definitions to the word root can be difficult at times. :)))

Wende was super helpful. The 8-week felt like a 5-credit class. Closed book exams on lockdown browser, lots of homework, quizzes, and reading but it's not too bad because it is a good way of memorizing all the terms. This class reminded me a lot of anatomy and physiology. You learn a lot and broaden your knowledge. Don't take with a 5-credit class!
