I took the online class and it was really easy. All you have to do is read the chapter and take the quiz on blackboard. The quizzes are open book and can be taken multiple times. There is a personal wellness project that was fairly easy. Professor Main is very nice as well. She answers emails and questions in good time. Take her!

I took this course online and that is definately the way to go. There were weekly assignments that included a quiz (can be retaken as many times as you need/want to) and discussion board questions. She gives you a few simple "labs" to complete throughout the semester. There was also a wellness project due at the end of the semester that was fairly simple to do. She's very sweet and funny, too. =)

Ms. Main is one of the best teachers I have had here at Western. All of the tests are online and they are multiple attempts. You can take notes in class but you don't really have to because they are all posted on blackboard. There are several extra credit opportunities. The attendance is a little different. If you do not miss a class you will get 25 bonus points. If you miss 1-4 classes, you will get 10 extra points, and anything after that up to 11 absences there is no effect. She is very passionate about personal health & i would take her again for any class.

First off the class is an easy A. Ms. Main is the BEST teacher I've had at western. she is SOOO nice...at first you almost think it's fake, but she's just genuinely that nice. she always welcomes you to class with a big "hey! how are ya!?"...even if you walk in an hour late. She's awesome. All of her notes are posted on blackboard and her tests are online so you get multiple attempts. Don't take any other teacher for this class...Ms. Main is the *best*!

Ms. Main is one of the greatest teachers ever. She is really nice. Her class maybe boring a lot of times, but the class is really easy. Her tests are on the internet, so if you wanted you could use your notes. (She doesn't want you to though.) Also, the tests are multiple attempts. So if you do horrible the first time you can do as many times as you want. She has some labs in her class but they are really easy too. If you are going to take a personal health class I recommend taking her.

Mrs. Main is one of the nicest instructors I've ever had. She is very understanding, and I felt bad that some students were abusing that. She gives extra credit assigments. Do not take notes! Mrs. Main posts everything on her website as soon as it is covered. I would only write down the material that is discussed and which you do not see it on her power point presentations (like definitions and such).
Also, you do not need to buy a book. Everything that is on her tests is the material covered in class. The tests are not very hard. If you go over the notes couple of times, you should do real well.
Start with the journal early enough (it requires 10-12 entries).

Elizabeth Main is one of the best teachers I have ever had! She is very thoughtful and sweet. Although attendance was required, she was very understanding and letting you slid. As long as you emailed her and told her why you were absent she excused you no matter what the reason was. All of the notes she posted online and you could just print them out. She had rather us do that than take notes in class. She offered a lot of extra credit. It is almost impossible not to get an A in the class. I would definetly recommend her. She is awesome!

This class is very easy, but at times can be extremely boring. The material is a lot of stuff you probably learned in a high school health class, it just goes more in depth. Although the book is supposed to be required, I never used mine. Mrs. Main uses powerpoint everyday for notes and you can print them directly off the internet instead of copying them down in class. She is a very nice woman and really cares about the well-being of her students.

Because it was a night class, the attendance policy was more strict than it would have been had it been a regular class (2 points off for each unexcused absence.) However, she was very lenient with the type of excused absences. The tests were 100 multiple choice questions (if you go to the class before the test she reviewed nearly all of questions that were on the test.)

Elizabeth Main is a wonderful teacher and she is one of the sweetest profs I know of. I have her for a night class and in the beginning she kept us kind of late but now we are out of there usually by 6:30. The notes are posted online and she gives a review before the test. Even when you have to stay late it isn't that bad because she makes things interesting. I really like her and anyone that plans to take this class should consider her.

Mrs. Main is the most energetic teacher I have ever had! She loves what she does and it really shows in the classroom. Her class can be boring at times but she livenes it up with her enthusiasm. The stuff she teaches is basically common sense. Her attendance policy is each day you miss you get 2 points taken off your grade. However, you have a chance to make the points up if you participate in class discussions.

She is the nicest professor I've had yet. She gets really excited about the class which helps out a lot since most of us have had a health class before. Attendance is required but you can easily email her an excuse to get it excused. I would recommend this class to anyone.
