Hi everyone,
I need to know how dr. PINCIVERO teaches and tests generally because I know he's new to the school.
I am planning on taking kin 2yy3 with him.
I also knows he's taught a life Sci course.

PLEASE PLEASE lemme know asap

I love Dr. Pincivero! I had him for Kin 1F03 and Kin 1AA3. He's such a down to earth and nice prof. When our class didn't want an online lecture one week he's like "okay no online lecture" and when our class needed more time to do an assignment, he extended the deadline to 3 days later.
The only negative thing I could say is his notes weren't the best and his voice is really soothing so it can be hard to pay attention sometimes.

Good guy, quite helpful and his tests were fair. Study lecture notes well and watch the online lectures. Take notes inclass and during the online lecture, and pay attention in labs. Do this and you'll be fine !

Are the online lectures just the regular lectures posted on Avenue, or do they have different material? Will there be podcasts of the actual lecture?

online lectures are extra to the stuff in class. since kin only had 2 lectures when i did it (idk if the 2yy3 will still have that) the online lecture served as a 3rd lecture. They were pretty short however, most of them under 30 minutes, and yes there are podcasts of the lectures, i never used them even tho i missed a few classes because of my laziness to get up at 8:30. I still managed a 9, defs coulda been higher. I felt that his course and test questions were easier than the 1Y03 ones

They have different material. There was only 2 lectures per week for Anatomy/Physiology so the third lecture was an online lecture. They were usually very short, about 20-30 minutes long. I don't know if they're changing it this year though, a lot of people didn't like online lectures so they might just make it into an actual lecture.

Yes there will be podcasts of the actual lecture too.

profs usually post online lectures when they dont have time to go through a certain amount of material with detail, it suually happens if the prof is pressed for time or to make up a missed lecture for some reason
