Dr. Kiemel is a really nice professor who is understanding and easy to contact. This class is very straightforward with 3 exams, discussion assignments, and weekly online quizzes. Attendance for lecture is not necessary, but in order to do well I would recommend going. Attendance for discussion is mandatory and is where you do most of your work for the class. The class's grades are majority based off the exams, so studying and being prepared for these exams is extremely important. Dr. Kiemel makes this relatively easy as he provides practice quizzes and recording to help prepare. The exams are all MC as well. Overall I have nothing bad to say about this class. Dr. Kiemel's lectures can get boring, but overall this class is relatively easy. He provides some extra credit opportunities which can help as well. If you get lazy like I did, your grade can slip pretty easily.

Very nice professor but has boring lectures. Taking this class made me realize the KNES major is not for me, but that is good! Not the professor. Just not interested in this type of stuff anymore. The discussion assignments are easy and time-consuming, but if you follow the rubric, you'll get a 10/10. The exams were very tricky, but that also could've been about I'm not interested in the content. The extra credit assignments help your grade so DO THEM. Do all the turning points and the study.

Professor Kiemel is a very dry lecturer BUT the information is very interesting. I personally found his exams to be pretty easy ESPECIALLY the weekly online ones. He exams are pretty straight forward as long as you study his lectures and PowerPoints. He also gives lots of opportunities for extra credit by participating in studies, writing a paper, and then coming to lecture and doing turning point. As long as you put time and effort into it you’ll get an A. As for the “lab” it’s literally a discussion and I got a 10/10 on every assignment. Would definitely recommend this course and professor!

The class is super boring and he goes over exactly what is on the slides. If you are a good test taker, then this class is an easy A for you, Quizzes are super easy and directly relate to the content you are learning in class. DO THE TURNING POINT AND EXTRA CREDIT!!! All exams and finals are multiple-choice, which is easier to prepare for. Really not hard to get a good grade in this class, but the hard work comes from discussions. My TA was terrible and was a tough grader and the assignments were difficult and oftentimes way too complex for what we were learning compared to lecture content.
