Dr. Esdin was very accommodating during the remote summer session and he always had our best interest at heart. There were a lot of quizzes (lecture quiz and a separate quiz based on a weekly paper) and daily participation quizzes. The final paper was pretty extensive but he gives you an interesting topic and enough time to do it. The exams were tough; we were allowed to use our notes but it was not helpful for the exams. Overall, this was an amazing class and I highly recommend!
Love Dr. Esdin ! I took PhySci 5 online spring quarter and he adapted to online learning so well. His lectures never went overtime, were always recorded, and he is very good at communicating with his students. All lectures and exams are very straightforward, and the final project is tedious but easy. Highly recommend this class as a GE, or even for personal information honestly.
I took this during quarantine which is why I could have mixed feelings about this class. The lectures were recorded online, discussions are mandatory and tend to run long, tests were harder than the quizzes. One project was covered over the entirety of the course along with a program that was $100 that I would only use for a week so that was a bummer. The work if not kept up with it tends to pile up pretty overwhelmingly. I would give this class an overall solid 6.5/10.
The Lifestyle Assessment project was exhausting so make sure you give yourself plenty of time to complete that. Dr. Esdin was great! He was effective in his asynchronous lectures and left them on the website to review throughout the quarter. Some topics were repetitive and kind of common sense, but it was interesting and I still learned a lot. The class is an easy A and very helpful in life.
I have learned so much from Dr.Esdin this quarter. He can be really funny sometimes, which makes lectures even more fun and engaging. LS7C was definitely more content heavy than the other classes in the LS7 series. However; the material is more interesting and applicable. The exams were multiple choice and true/false. Exams are hard as expected and in order to do well, you need to go back to the learning objectives and make sure you can understand/do them after each lecture. I also rewatched all the lectures and went over clicker questions. The last 3 weeks were not as fun as the first weeks, but it is definitely doable. Overall, Dr. Esdin was an awesome professor and you should definitely take LS7C with him if you have the chance.
I genuinely loved this class. Dr. Esdin is an engaging and funny instructor, and his lectures reflect that he truly cares about the topics he teaches. The topics you learn about in this class will undoubtedly be applicable to your own life, and Esdin honestly inspired me to take my health more seriously.
Workload was pretty light. Points were divided between attendance quizzes (taken after EVERY lecture), lecture quizzes (biweekly), laboratory quizzes (biweekly), lab participation, a pretty large project, as well as a midterm and final. My TA Alice was very attentive when it came to assisting us with our projects, and Esdin was willing to answer questions about the project too.
The only problem I had with this class was the lack of clarity in some quizzes/exams. A lot of the tests had wording errors that confused students. I didn't run into much trouble in this regard, but it wasn't uncommon that students had to address these kinds issues in Esdin's office hours.
Textbook isn't mandatory but I found it very helpful, especially because some topics weren't covered as extensively in lectures as in the book. Textbook can be a lifesaver when it comes to quizzes. The material is pretty expensive, but I'm glad I got it.
This is a decent class and I'm glad to have gotten my lab requirement out of the way with it. Lectures kind of feel boring/repetitive at times so I often watch them at a faster speed. We have a participation quiz for each lecture which is just a bunch of free points and should be easy if you watched the lecture. The good thing about the participation quizzes too is that they keep you from procrastinating/delaying lectures. The lifestyle project is pretty big but completely do-able, just start early! If you start a week early you should be fine, but keep up with all of the stuff we do in lab. Lab is long but I'd so much rather be in that lab than like a chemistry or physics one. The lecture/lab quizzes are poorly worded so make sure you have good notes.
Professor Esdin genuinely cares about his students. This class is awesome. His passion for health bleeds over into his teaching and truly inspires the class to adopt a healthier lifestyle. The quarter long lifestyle project is a lot of work, however, it is fairly interesting and manageable as long as you stay on top of it. The quizzes and exams are occasionally tricky/subjective. That is why it is important to study hard so that you do not second guess yourself. Overall, this course is AMAZING and I would recommend everyone take it.
Professor Esdin has hands down been my favorite professor of the LS7 series. I did not do as well as I had hoped in 7A and 7B, but I was able to do well in 7C because Esdin was such an engaging and interesting lecturer. The tests were difficult (as all 7 series tests are), but I found the material very interesting. 7C probably had the most launchpad out of all the other classes, but I found it to be way more helpful than for any other 7 series class. As long as you understand the cycles that Esdin goes over, you will do great in the class. Also, after each of the midterms, he offered an "exam wrapper" which is basically a mini quiz you can take to get upwards of 8 extra credit points added to your midterm score. This really helped me be less stressed about the grades I received. Overall, I highly recommend taking 7C with Esdin.
