Re: Iowa Western Community College vs. Metro Community College

I was hoping to find someone who had Todd Templeton for Human Anatomy. I am so glad to hear that you liked him. Can you tell me a little more about his teaching style? I have Alan Wasmoen now for Intro to Biology and I think he is a hard teacher as far as the amount of information that he gives you to learn for each test and the wording on his tests. I like him for the fact that he gives extra points for labs and homework assignments to help bring your grade up if you don't test well though. Can you tell me a little more about Templeton's way of teaching. Thanks!!!

YESI05 -I applying for fall to Iowa Western, and if there are no more openings I will apply for the spring. Maybe I will see you there! Good luck on a & p 2, you are brave! I could never do A & P 2 online.

Liz- I had a friend who had Alan Wasmoen for Intro to Biology, she said similar things and really disliked him as a teacher. Todd Templeton does lectures. You have to take notes. He will never have you do fill-in-the-blank notes or just hand you printouts of slides, so be prepared to write! The labs are always explained and he is very available and helpful.

He normally does not do extra credit but he does give 20 extra points for perfect attendence.
You probably will not need extra credit. Just be sure to study the notes and review sheets.
I hope this helped! If you have any more questions feel to ask.

Thanks Christina for the info on Templeton. Does he break things down pretty well for memorization and how much time would you say you studied weekly for his class? Did you take it with any other classes and/or would you recommend doing so? I've heard A & P takes ALOT of time because of all the memorization, so I am trying to prepare myself and make sure I have the time available to get a good grade. Did you take him for microbiology?

Re: Iowa Western Community College vs. Metro Community College

So I remember you saying you liked working at the Nebraska medical center, I am currently enrolled in a CNA class it starts May 18 and goes to June 27, and am hoping to apply to work there in August when I move to Omaha. I liked that you said the nurses are very good about wanting to teach you stuff for when you start a nursing program. I've also checked out the website you gave me thanx for all the help!! I was so stressed about looking for job and have found a great place 2 begin
