Ok, so I love Woody Moses with a great and burning passion. Take this class because it rocks and so does he. You seriously will want to treat the environment so much better and just realize how your actions affect everything else. plus, you will have a hot teacher to look at. i don't know what it is. but something about him, i can't quite figure out, everything he does is beautiful, everything he does is right.

I hate how he tests. He only gives us an hour for each exam even though the period is 2 hours. He let us use a notecard, but they were essay exams (hard). For the lab practical, he only gave us 2 min per question and actually stood there with a stopwatch in his hand! That was ridiculous. He is a good lecturer, and fair on grades though.

"the paper should be 10 pages long, which really means 9-11." Dont take this guy. he tries to fit an english class in a level 100 science class. you do more writing than in engl 101 or 102. class is much harder and time consuming than it should be.

So many papers

Amazing professor, I took him for Environmental Science, and it was an experience that had to be the most fun I have had at Highline, he starts to sing about the circle of life and makes learning fun and easy to learn on his humor and interest in the topics he discusses in class.

"40hrs of study time outside of class, not including hw, project, or quiz" Woody is a nice professor, but doesn't really teach anything in class. Basically have to teach things to yourself even if you have a 2 hour lecture. You get up to 2 absences on lab days or you'll fail the class. There are weekly online quizzes, two exams, and group project.

Woody Moses is a great teacher! Just do the readings and study for tests!!! Lab days are fun and also mandatory. He is also very funny and can make lectures exciting, which is a plus. This course is not easy, but you should be fine by studying and working hard.

The class was relatively easy but the 10 page paper seemed a bit excessive. There are more lively ENVS professors at Highline but I would still take his class again if I needed to.

I saw great overall great reviews that's why I chose him but he wasn't that good. Didn't really learn anything from him. Would just sit, listen and get out and think "what did I learn?". Not a great lecturer, horrible quizzes and exams, blamed class for low average score on midterm and we had to pretty much teach ourselves. Don't recommend.

For the most part, he's your standard bio teacher but you can really tell that he cares about the students. I would recommend this science lab class if you need the credit for all the nonstem majors. Pretty laid back and approachable :]

Moses is a fine bio instructor, but a wonderful professor. You must work to learn the content. Moses teaches exactly how to succeed in his class (and he makes it easy) AND college. He doesn't just teach biology, but how to do well in college. There is a midterm and final, he allows a 9x5 notecard, study and you'll do great, promise! 100% recommend.

Don't think this class is just gonna be an easy A. There is a lot of studying required. He even mentions you should be studying multiple hours outside of class. Tests / exams every Tuesday.

He was nice at first and super funny but until we had a final project, super strict about public speaking. interrupt us mid-presentation and told us to stop. He had attitude and called our group out saying we were the worst group. He made smart comments about things during our presentation and just rude and so entitled.

His lecture videos were from 2016 (date visible at the bottom of the video) which was a bit disappointing because I'm sure there's a lot of new information. We had to write a 10 page paper with little to no guidance. I wasn't sure about the expectations, what can or cannot be included etc.

The weekly assignments are simple with a discussion post, reply, and multi-choice quiz and 20 extra credit points. The midterm had about 18 free-response questions, which was unexpected, but the final was a mix, mostly multi-choice questions. He had checkpoints for the 10 paged paper but didn't provide that great of feedback. Overall not bad.

Woody mostly explains well and grades easily but many quiz/exam questions weren't taught well or at all. I ended with an A but had a 70-85% for most of the course. The online resources can be hard to understand. Lab days are required. I would consider a professor with clearer explanations of their course if that suits your learning style.

Professor Moses makes the class engaging, but it requires consistent effort. The lectures are informative, and he provides helpful study tips. Unstuck AI's practice quizzes complemented the textbook well for exam prep. Overall, a solid choice for fulfilling a science credit.

I enjoyed Moses's online class overall. I found it to be fairly easy, though there was a significant amount of work. One downside was that a low quiz grade could really impact your overall score. However, I appreciated his lectures and learned a lot. He was responsive to questions and graded fairly.
