1. Did the lectures help your understanding of the
material? 13 Yes 1
No
| Yes, the lectures helped me to have a better understanding of the
material. | |
| Yes, it helped me very well. | |
| The lectures were very clear & concise. They were in laymens
terms so that anyone would be able to understand. | |
| Yes, I felt the lectures help in understanding the material. | |
| Absolutely. | |
| Most definitely! I think
thats the only way to learn the material. | |
| Sometimes yes. I found the
material hard to understand with reading and lectures. Sometimes lecture confused me even
more. But mostly it helped. | |
| Very much so. | |
| Yes, the lectures were helpful and helped with understanding the
chapter readings. |
2. Were the Quizzes helpful as a pre-test? 14
Yes 0 No
| Yes, the quizzes were very
helpful because they were the same type of questions that would appear on
the test. | |
| Yes, the quizzes were a great
outline of the information that was on the test. | |
| Very helpful. There were no surprises on the test
because we already had an idea from the quizzes. He also went over quizzes step by step. | |
| Yes, they were helpful because
we could review. | |
| Yes, definitely. | |
| Yes, they were. | |
| Yes, very. | |
| Very helpful. | |

for the tests |
3. Did the homework
problems help prepare you for the quiz and test? 12 Yes 2 No
| Yes, I found the homework
problems to be helpful. | |
| Yes, the homework was great
practice for the quizzes and test. | |
| The homework helped me to get
an overall idea of the concepts Dr. Lynch was looking for. If we had questions he would review. | |
| Yes, they helped but they were
always much harder than the test. | |
| Most of the time I also found
some of the problems within the chapter helpful, too. | |
| I dont believe they did. I think the homework questions were a
lot more advanced than what we were learning. | |
| Not really. Even when I work through the homework
problems, I still have trouble with the tests. I need to have my notebook to help me
understand and on the test I get lost! | |
| Yes, except when there was the
odd problem on a test that didnt fit. | |
| Sometimes they threw me off a
little. | |
| Some did, not all. | |
| Most of the homework was
confusing until we went over it in lecture. |
4. How did you use the Pre-Lab questions on the Internet before lab?
| The pre-lab questions helped me
to get a better understanding of the material we were going to discuss in
lab. | |
| They were very effective in the
way that by the time lab started I understand the lay-out of lab. | |
| The Internet helped me to know
if I was giving correct answers on PreLab. | |
| I used them to help me prepare
for the lab and answer the unknown questions. | |
| I would try to answer the
questions myself after reading both the chapter and the lab; then Id
check my answers against yours.
Sometimes I wrote in an answer I didnt understand, so I could have
it with me to learn or ask about in lab. | |
| I never ever looked on the
internet for the pre-lab questions.
I did them on my own. | |
| Rarely used it. | |
| They were good for preparing
for lab and being familiar with what we were doing before getting into the
lab. | |
| Sometimes. | |
| I used them to verify my work
was correct. | |
| I used them as a reference, if
I had a question. | |
| Didnt. | |
| The pre-lab question
were a good study guide. |
5. Were the Labs incorporated into the
lectures? 13
Yes 1 No
| Yes, the lab was incorporated with lectures. | |
| The labs were very incorporated into the
lectures. | |
| I would say they were more like visual examples
of theories discussed. They helped
me see the math as a real thing occurring rather than just as math. | |
| Not really. | |
| Yes, and labs were helpful in understanding. | |
| Pretty much. | |
| Yes, when he could. | |
| Some of the same pre-lab questions were the same
as the homework so that helped to practice. |
6. Did Lab concepts appear on the test? 13
Yes 1 No
| Yes, many equations/problems that were similar to
the ones in lab were on the test. | |
| Yes/no more of homework and quiz, but lab was he;
for practice. | |
| Yes, what we did in labs were on the test. | |
| If they did, they were more incorporated into the
general theme of that sections focus. | |
| To a point they did. | |
| I think not. | |
| Some did. | |
| Most of the concepts appeared on the test. |
7. Did the scheduled labs match with the material
being tested? 13
Yes 1 No
| Yes, it was right on time
even throughout the snow days. | |
| Yes, except for snow & holidays. Dr. Lynch is very consistent. | |
| Not really. | |
| Most of the time. |
8. Were in-class demonstrations helpful? 11
Yes 0 No
Containers for volume conversions-
22.4 liter box for ideal gas-
| Yes, seeing things visually is always helpful. | |
| Yes, they were helpful in visualizing foreign
concepts. | |
| They were for me visuals always help bring the
work off the page for another way to understand. | |
| A little. | |
| Yes, seeing how thing work I think is more
effective then just a lecture.
Visual demonstrations help me to better understand. |
9. Comment on the quality of the Internet site
and how it was helpful to you.
| The internet site was great help especially for the lab
questions and recommended sties. | |
| Very useful. | |
| The Internet site was an excellent tool for
references at any time. | |
| Loved the Internet site. I wish that when you posted the first 2
lectures you did them all. They
were awesome study guides. | |
| It was extremely helpful, from the snow line to
the links to knowing there was easy access to you. Thank you for being so organized &
helpful. | |
| I liked the site, I was able to look at my grade,
reach you for questions, and look up homework, lab assignments. | |
| Good, very helpful in checking grades and
homework. | |
| Internet site was great. I used it a lot for grades, schedule, homework, etc. | |
| It let me know how I was doing & what I
needed to do to improve my grade. | |
| The internet was great,
it allowed me to see my grades before the next class. It also helped if I didnt understand a
lab question. All teachers should
use the same idea as you. | |
| The site was very helpful,
I liked how you could look at grades. | |
| Lovely. | |
| The Internet site was very helpful with lab as
well as keeping us with homework questions. |
10. Other comments for improvement?
| The class was great and so was the teacher. I wish he taught other courses. | |
| Dr. Lynch is a wonderful teacher. Very organized and available for any
questions we may have! | |
| It was an amazingly accessible and comprehensive
and fun class. I cant tell you how
grateful I am to have had you as my professor. | |
| No J. Thanks
for a great semester! Even though I
struggled a lot, I felt this class was good opportunity to set my
standards straight. I have been
getting tutored throughout this entire semester, but I dont thin it
helped me as much as I thought. I
hope to pass this class on a somewhat of a good basis. If not, I look forward to seeing you
next semester! Great teaching
techniques. | |
| We used like ¼ % of the textbook, what happens to
the rest? | |
| You are definitely one of the best teachers Ive
ever had. You made it fun. There were just a few times I didnt
understand what you were talking about, but you always fixed it. | |
| I just thin as a teacher you were very helpful
when needed and very fair.
Sometimes you did throw me off during the lectures though. | |
| I thought you did well. | |
| Nope, doing great. |
