I took this class online and it was HORRIBLE. The tests were ridiculous; half the material on them was never covered. Very specific questions like what SPF of sunscreen you should wear to prevent cancer. It wasn't in the slides or summaries. TAKE AT HAWKEYE INSTEAD!!!

Great professor and very nice. I bet everyone who has given her a bad rating never even went and talked to her one-on-one. If you're honest and show up to class she will find ways to help you out. FYI she only has control over one test out of the entire semester.

Terrible class, tried to take it online and test weren't even up when they were suppose to be and she makes you memorize minute stupid details

Shaddox taught the first two sections of PW. She was an alright professor, but her lectures seemed a bit dry at times. Study guides were very good for the test. She is quite helpful if you need something/have questions. Good professor.

I took personal wellness face to face and the section Mrs. Shaddox taught, I understood because she was very helpful and took the time to help when we needed it. However, there are other sections in personal wellness after her and I don't get the teachers, test are really hard!She tries to help understand their tests but their not her hard ones!

Tests are horrible!!! Why are you making personal wellness so hard?? You feel like you know everything, but the test questions are worded tricky- like they want you to fail.
PW1
She was extrememly helpful in answering questions and if you are going to take PW, take it online. Easy class

i took personal wellness online it was horrible..emails from professor not clear always send another email saying something as "sorry this doesn't apply to this class"..emails not clear at all ..tests were too hard it was just stupid hated it.

Take this teacher! shes super nice and will help you with whatever she can! She doesn't make any of the tests, just schedules the teachers but knows her material so you'll get the help you need. I recommend her, she's a sweetheart!

I actually only had 1 more credit to take to graduate so I took arobics crosstraining and she taught it. Really nice lady who knows what she is doing. If you go to class and work hard she is fine. People who dont do well are usually slackers and shouldnt complain if they dont put the effort into it.
PersWell
She is horrible. She only prepares the tests when she has time(she's part-time). Still she is disorganized during her lecture. I got a really bad grade on the 1st test even though I did what she told me.

Personal Wellness - Definitely take online. Only have to go to campus to take tests, there are 3 throughout the semester. Can go through the power points just as you would in class, but without someone talking in the background. Read through the chapters, and watch the videos, and you'll be fine. A lot of the class is common sense anyway.
PersoWell
This class was online and she was horrible at making test. Stuff on the test she used were meant for in class lectures and not online classes. She argues everything against you, when given extra credit, take it.

I took online class and it was really easy. Teacher was very helpful if I had any questions. Good easy class

I took the class online, so I never had to go to lectures. Took exams with Shaddox, and she was my prof, and I went in to talk to her twice and she was very very helpful both times.
PW000
she is unreliable and insensitive. i had to drop this class and its labs for health reasons, and she offered to submit my drop forms for me. i got the dr note & all the forms, turned them in at her office, and she failed me anyway. she offers her email to students, then takes several days (sometimes more than a week) to respond to emails.

Class is pointless, waste of money. There are three different teachers, and Shaddox by far is the easiest. The other two test you over knit-picky things. I only went to class 1/2 the time and passed easily.

Class is pointless...everything you learn in the lecture you have heard 10 other times in high school. There are 3 differnet teachers that teach this class and Shaddox is the best one. Extra credit is offered and only 3 tests.

shaddox is the best speaker of the three that teach the class and she is very helpful.. even with a class of 200 she asks if there are any questions. the class sucks but shes the best one of the three teachers

Teachers skip info that will be on test and can't get anywhere else. Tests are horrible, everybody at UNI should take the class at a community college (hawkeye) because the teaching aspect of the class is unbelievable.

She's a really nice lady, probably the best of the lecturers you have for personal wellness. Class isn't too bad if you go to class and take notes. Study the review sheets from online.
ph
never met the teacher, and almost done with class. lectures are done by unknown people. labs have a million assignments, but aren't hard. tests are pretty much guess and you could get it right. went to class for first test, never went back until second one and i got the same grade, class optional.
Personal W

She doesn't teach all lecture, only a few, in fact. Tests are over book material more than lecture material.
Wellness
Class is very disorganized - lecture and labs. But the tests aren't as bad as people here say. It's easy to skip this class, but if you go and take notes, you're fine. The final (100?'s) was cake. Just make sure you get some fun labs in there. Not a bad class overall

It just seems stupid that this class would be so dang hard! The tests are very difficult even when you study and attend all lectures. Boring speakers!
PW
boring lectures. class taught by 4 speakers for the whole semester. tests are long and somewhat hard. need to take notes. and read the book. zzzzzzzzz. hard to get a hold of shaddox the real proffesor. can get extra credit.

Shaddox is a pretty nice lady, the best lecturer in the class, but the class sucks. Be prepared: the tests are way to difficult for a useless class as this is.

It's crazy because attendance isn't required but even when you do go to class the tests are very hard. The class sucks but you gotta take it sometime.
Personal W
Information is nothing you haven't previously been taught already. It's a combonation of biology, health, and gym. Lecture is taught by several professors who all have VERY different styles of teaching. Book can't be resold b/c you have to tear out pages. Class sucks, but it's required...
Pers. Well
If you actually put in any effort this class is easy. The lectures don't help, but that's no excuse for doing poorly.
p.w
worst gen. ed class ever, why do we still have to take PE in college, non sense, tests are way hard and specific, don't need to go to class, it doesn't help AT ALL,
gym
Hated this class, one of the worst gen eds offered. Tests are way hard, too specific, must read, going to class does not help. Pointless gen ed that shouldn't be required
PW
I know tobacco is bad for you and that eating foods high in fat can make you fat. Why, then, did I get Cs on all the tests? This class should be outlawed and so should Shaddox. She obviously bores herself to death as well as her students.
Pers Well
This class is horrible, and so are all the lecturers (including Shaddox). I hate it. No wonder they call it Personal Hellness.
PerWellnes
Absolutely horrible class. A gen ed course like personal wellness lecture shouldn't be this freakin tough. Tests are way too specific, lecture is boring, for some odd reason she makes 9th grade health class extremely difficult.
