Super stress free and relatively easy class! I took it online and we had two papers, 5 discussion board assignments, and a midterm & final. You also need to get CPR certified so I recommend doing that as soon as possible because it was a requirement. Professor Biscorca provided all the notes and PowerPoints so there was no need to buy the book.

Tests are based on lecture and reading (you only read like 5 chapters for the semester), she goes over assignments in class, and gives you class time to complete them/study before exams. She's caring and enthusiastic about what she's teaching. Great professor!

Best online class ever! One assignment is given each week and an assignment might include a discussion or a short paper. Although the book isn't necessary for the assignments, it was helpful to have for the midterm and final. She does provide notes and outlines on beach board.

I took her during summer. Just do the assignments & you'll get an A. No textbook needed. Barely spent time studying for this class.

I took Vikki during the summer. She is amazing! She really emphasizes how important participation is but also that it helps you learn and pay attention in class. There wasn't many assignments, but they were all easy. I would highly recommend taking her for any classes she is available for.

Easy class, just wished this class was an online course. Spent the majority of time watching documentary videos and group assignments. Midterm was easy, final was a bit tricky.

Exam questions are tricky and worded differently than the textbook. Other than that, should be easy to answer discussion questions (5) and papers (2, 2 pages each)

Comment:

She's a great professor, the grading criteria and assignments are clear and straight forward. None of the assignments are difficult just a little on the time consuming side. Also no group projects/presentations which is great since that is pretty much all we do in every over health science class. Definitely recommend taking her!

When I say participation matters, she counts attendance as participation points. Really nice teacher, and is there for you if you need help. Assignments do take time to complete, but are fairly easy. Only has 1 exam (final), didn't even use the book so don't buy it. Would definitely take her again, especially during summer!

Loved her class!! she makes it so interesting! I was never bored. All her assignments are fairly easy, however, just because she is really nice it doesn't mean that her tests will be easy, you might want to study for them. Don't really need the book, just take good notes.
