I really enjoyed having her as a teacher. She is very caring and outgoing. We received tedious, busy work, but nothing was ever too hard or crazy.

Comment:

She is one of the nicest teachers that i have ever had. The course itself is a blow-off class even though the homework load is "heavy", in the sense that most of the assignments take mere minutes to complete. She is not a tough grader and she could care less if you attend class. i only do so to show respect for the teacher.

The problem with this class is the setup. We have a quiz due every Monday BEFORE we actually learn about the topic in lecture. Yes it is an easy A but its also a very annoying one especially for only 2 credits. My activity is swimming and I was upset when I found the lecture was anything but. At least I know how to swim now.

Nice professor. I took this class online and emailed her with any questions and she got back to me in a reasonable amount of time. There is a lot of work involved with this course but if you do the work you will get an A no doubt.

Comment:

The class itself is easy, as long as you show up for in-class activity. Actually being able to find that activity online is nearly impossible. She's the type of rude teacher who's all about "You aren't dismissed until I tell you that you can leave." Wouldn't recommend her, but she's a mandatory teacher for all health activity classes.

Comment:

Dr. Weideman... Her homework assignments are tedious and time consuming. A simple 2 credit course consumed way too much of my time and instead of creating her own quizzes on elearning, she required that every student purchased a semester of McGraw Connect. She is not organized and I find her grading to be subjective.

Comment:

This class is stupid and irrelevant to anything im doing with my life. She does not respond to emails or cares that the ridiculous amount of homework she gives out is confusing to find. I don't think she realizes that she has an email account or feels the need to email her students that are paying for her class.

Comment:

The lab portion of the class is enough to cover all of the material in the course. The lecture is completely pointless and the professor moves way too fast and the tests questions do not apply to some of the material "covered" in class. Although the Dr. Weideman seems like a nice person, she clearly needs to improve the way she teaches.

This class SHOULD be a blow off class. There are many assignments weekly including writing and online assignments. Stay on top of your homework and you'll be fine. Carol is very understanding so talk to her and she'll work with you. Her class is ultra relaxed all she wants in return is a little participation and respect and you'll enjoy this class.

I can honestly say that I have not learned anything this entire semester. She is so unorganized and all over the place when it comes to lecturing. Throughout the semester we were assigned multiple quizzes where the class average was roughly 60%. On top of that we had a group project that she failed to example half of what she was looking for.

Lecture is so boring and doesn't give enough time to take notes. Pretty much teach yourself on the McGraw-Hill Connect. DO NOT BUY THE PHYSICAL BOOK! It's almost $150 and she gives you a link that you can buy it online for $90. Save yourself the $60.

I had a 50 minute lecture with her, but it seemed like it was a never ending boring class. Be prepared to hate this class with a passion. By far, the worst professor I have ever had.

Just the worst class. All busywork, Dr. Weideman is a disorganized mess, and she doesn't respond to her email in a timely manner. It's ridiculous. The final was online, and I couldn't access it for all of finals week. I emailed her on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, and she didn't respond until Sunday, didn't offer me an extension. Absurd.

I have taken this class over the summer and I can honestly say that I have not learned anything. She is all over the place when it comes to lecturing and has a terrible time with forming full sentences. The semester was due to end on Friday and she still has exams and projects due after the end of the semester due to the lack of her being prepared.

Comment:

Okay first off, FYE is a waste of time, which is what I took with her. She is a really nice lady. She is bubbly and always has a smile on her face. However, she is all over the place. She is not organized, she will just throw stuff at you over and over again. Can be rather annoying too.
