Comment:

KINE 1020 was very intense. Prof Gledhill would pack so much information into every lecture, and every piece of information had the potential to be on the exam. So keep your ears open. The labs, however, were simple, and actually sorta fun. A great professor.

Comment:

Norman Gledhill is horrible, he is more obsessed with people walking in front of him while lecturing as oppose to helping a first year student

My mom also had him for 1020, and we both agree he is great, strict, hard tests, but one of the best. Very interesting classes

Comment:

He makes it a well-known fact that he's as intelligent as he is. The material is really good, but he likes to ruin his students on his exams. Thank your lucky stars for the labs (easy marks). Cramming for this exam will not work, you literally have to devote a lot of time and energy into EVERY SINGLE detail. (He likes random, mentioned-once facts.)

Comment:

This guy is brilliant and really knows his stuff. However, he's quite a jackass at the same time. Tests you on very nitty gritty stuff. This definitely isn't a class to cram for, as there's soooo much information to learn. At least it's interesting and you can relate to it though. Easy lab marks, easy lab quiz. Tests are killer though.

Passionate about his work which makes his lectures more enjoyable. Occasionally zooms through the most important topics of class. To many odd facts and tidbits of info to remember and not enough critical thinking. Good prof! Hard exams! Easy labs.

Comment:

The class had very interesting material, but his exams were pretty tough. If ur going to take this course, you better be prepared to wake up early, and pay attention in his lectures, because anything he says in class can appear on the exams! (e.g. how many calories is a teaspoon of sugar?!?)

Comment:

Difficult class. I enjoyed Prof. Gledhill though. He really knows his stuff. I suggest start studying about a month before the midterm and the exam. That is the only way to get in all the nittigritty that he is going to ask for. This is not a class to cram for!

Comment:

so far, hes my favourite prof. He actually knows his stuff cold. If you study the notes, and go to lecture, you should do alright on the exam. Really interesting course, so much information. Not very approachable, but if you do ask him for help, hes great.
