 | 1. | The
groups are not working well for me...my two group mates in the front
dont even turn around and talk to the two of us behind... | Mon, 3/16/09 5:23 PM |

 | 3. | Sometimes,
I feel the groupwork in class takes too much time away from the
lecture. A lot of the time I get out of class knowing a new formula or
concept, but not knowing how to apply it. The book is at times
difficult to understand-- I can't always see how it gets from one step
to another-- and so I have trouble with the homework. | Mon, 3/16/09 9:09 AM |
 | 4. | Sometimes
the attitudes of people in groups especially by people who are familiar
with the concepts that are being taught in class.I feel people need to
understand that different people have different types of learning. Some
learn fast while others are slow learners. People should be considerate
of those that are learning the concepts for the first time. | Mon, 3/16/09 8:11 AM |

 | 6. | There
is very little that I can think of that is not working well for me in
this class. Personally, I am not a huge fan of the Mathematica
assignments, nor was I last semester, but I understand why we have to
continue with them. | Wed, 3/11/09 5:30 PM |
 | 7. | I
am not too enthusiastic about the group work. The problems and
exercises are so easy that it is really hard for me to actually work in
a group because the answers are just so obvious. I would rather work in
a group on a problem that is so hard that I have no idea how to
approach it myself.
I am also disappointed by the quizzes and tests we have. I feel like
all I have to do to get good grades is to repeat what you have shown us
in class with different numbers plugged in. I don't feel like I am
evaluated on my actual understanding of the material, and neither is
the course pushing me to develop a higher level of understanding. | Wed, 3/11/09 2:06 AM |
 | 8. | During
class lectures, I sometimes find it hard keeping up with the professor
talking and writing down the notes at the same time. It sometimes a
little to fast to me to handle and take down at one shot. | Mon, 3/9/09 6:15 PM |
 | 9. | There is too much homework per week, so sometimes it get difficult to cope with | Mon, 3/9/09 12:55 PM |
 | 10. | the
group assignments.Working in groups is a good thing but most people in
class are familiar with the concepts being taught in class and are
sometimes inconsiderate to people who are learning for the first time. | Sat, 3/7/09 7:48 AM |
 | 11. | it
seems as if we move very quickly through the topics this semester. last
semester we spent more time on each topic and so the material was less
overwhelming. | Fri, 3/6/09 5:32 PM |
 | 12. | I often don't test well and I feel like the test may not be a good measure of my understanding of the material. | Thu, 3/5/09 8:09 PM |
 | 13. | everything is pretty great | Thu, 3/5/09 3:06 PM |

 | 20. | Nothing really. | Thu, 3/5/09 8:18 AM |
 | 21. | Due to time conflicts I cannot attend either of the TA sessions, something which has placed me at a disadvantage. | Thu, 3/5/09 7:27 AM |
 | 22. | I can't make it to most of the work sessions or TA sessions, but that's really my own fault. I have a very full schedule. | Thu, 3/5/09 7:19 AM |
