KINE 2000

The class itself isn't too bad, it is a very general overview of many different topics related to kinesiology so it is definitely a good introductory course. There also isn't much work outside of class and Professor Saliba is good at expanding upon things in class to help you understand them better. The tests weren't too bad, although each one had a few questions that could trip you up but if you study well you should be fine. It shouldn't be too hard to get at least an A-.

This class is a prereq for Kinesiology major, but I took it for personal interest as I'm from the college of arts and science. I received an A for this class, and I think the overall curriculum is great paced. The course is broken down into 6 modules with a total of 23 small units. Each unit quiz is 5 points, and each module exam is worth 25 points. You get to drop 3 of the lowest quiz scores and 1 lowest module exam. You also have around 10 group assignments that's worth about 100 points. Toward the end of the semester, your assigned group would work on an assigned research group project, which has a super lenient grading rubric (basically everyone gets a 100). The course material is quite dense that touched upon many aspects of kinesiology, human anatomy, neuroscience, sports training, health, etc, but I would really recommend it if you are looking for a fun and worthwhile class to take.

Easy A class. Make sure you come to class when you are doing group work and also when you are expected to participate in the group project. The only bad thing is that one of my group members never even showed up or even bothered texting and she got the exam same grade as us on it.

As a first-year Kinesiology major, I LOVED this course! Kinesiology is such an interesting and vast subject so this course gave you bits and pieces of everything from musculoskeletal anatomy to health disparities. You can get the main idea of the lectures from just looking at the slides, though there have been times where she tells you exactly what will be on the test during lectures. For the most part, lectures/slide contents are pretty straightforward, but I highly recommend studying in advance for the anatomy and biomechanics segments as those lectures are a bit confusing at first.
Group lab/discussion is a huge part of your grade and the groups are randomly assigned during the first week of classes. There's a weekly 10 point lab quiz (in total ~40% of your grade) that go over the content of the two lectures, so be sure to do well on those (especially since they're open note)! There are four 25 question module quizzes that weren't too bad, though the TA's always say that the second quiz (pertaining to musculoskeletal anatomy) is always the worst. They ended up dropping our lowest quiz but I'm not sure if that's standard every year.
The final consisted of an 100 question exam (completed during the final block) and also a group poster recorded presentation due a week before (during your lab/discussion block). The final is cumulative and I found studying from my lab quizzes as well as the modules quizzes the most helpful. I found the group poster really easy as you had 1-2 class blocks to work on it and my group knocked it out in one 2 hour study session in a study room. You get all the material/data to make the poster, you just need to make it (on PowerPoint or Slides) and record yourselves talking about it for ~5 minutes.
Overall, highly recommend this course!
