Not at all that I expected. Lecture are pre-recorded from years back and a very rushed final and midterm exam. Non-consistent markers with the essay project and no feedback from this essay.

Interesting, but not what I expected in terms of the content. It was very much focused around learning about different models of health behaviour, which is a bunch of rote learning. Otherwise, the concepts are all quite interesting and applicable to your everyday life, and most of it is common sense. I actually really liked learning about health advertising, which sounds boring but was pretty cool! I didn't bother buying the textbook, which made some quiz and exam questions difficult, and the exam was pretty rushed with 100 questions in 90 minutes, but it was easy enough to get a distinction.

Easily the worst subject I've ever taken at Macquarie. Assessments marked with no standard between markers, for one student that gets a P, another with the same quality of work gets a HD. Final exam was an absolute joke, takes random lines from lectures that do not relate to the learning outcomes - how are you meant to learn from this? Also no feedback sheets given out at the end of semester. What a waste of a subject.

Good unit with engaging content that was easy to understand. Marking can be a bit harsh at times, but overall an enjoyable unit.
