Please help me identify what was helpful to you while learning PHY 111 this Fall Semester (03-01).

 

1.  Did the lectures help your understanding of the material?                    10 Yes  0 No

·         Yes, very helpful.

 

2.  How did you feel the course material was oriented to your technical area? 10 Yes 0 No

·         It was oriented fairly well to Ultrasound.

·         Very related once explained how.

·         I learned about sound waves and how they move thru a transducer.  Import. For my field.

·         The chapters on sound were good to prepare for acoustical physics.

·         Somewhat.

·         Very useful.

 

3.  Did the Internet Homework Problems Hints help prepare you for the test? 9 Yes  1 No

·         They would if I had the internet to use them.

 

4.  Were the Pre-Tests on the Internet helpful as a study guide?               10 Yes  0 No

·         Very helpful.

·         Very much so.

 

5.  Were the Labs incorporated into the lectures?                                       10 Yes  0 No

 

6.  Did Lab concepts appear on the test?                                                     9 Yes  1 No

·         Sometimes.

·         Not that I can remember.

 

7.  Did the scheduled labs match with the material being tested?               10 Yes  0 No

 

8.  Regarding the Data Collections tools in Lab:

 

9.  Were in class demonstrations helpful?

·        DVD’s for Resonance, Harmonic Motion, Constant Acceleration (Shoot the Monkey)-

o       Somewhat

 

10.  Comment on the quality of the Internet site and how it was helpful to you.

·         It was great – I wish all my teachers had their own site that posted all import info (schedules, grades, pretests etc)

·         It is a good site and is very helpful.

·         Love the site because I could get any help and info I needed at home.

·         The Internet site was very helpful.

·         It helped with my grades & just knowing that it was there if I really needed it.

·         I was able to understand the answers to questions @ home, not just in the class.

·         The internet site was definitely very helpful.

·         Great to keep students updated on what’s coming up for the next class.

·         It was very helpful.

·         It gave me a better understanding.

 

11.  Other comments?

·         This class was great overall – I learned a lot about conceptual physics & it was interesting.  I never missed a class @ 8:30 in the am (I missed 1 lab).  The labs were not a self explanatory as they could have been.  I am a more verbal person which is why I like lectures.  I can read directions, but I think you assumed we knew to do certain things in the lab that were not in the directions.  Ie conversions & getting up certain labs.  It was very educational anyway.  Thanks You!

·         You are a great teacher.  I wish you would be our instructor for acoustical physics!!

·         Internet site should be used for other classes as well.

·         I’ve really enjoyed this class.

·         You’re the best Science teacher I have had yet since I have been in school.

·         You might want to put a little more instruction on the labs.  They were good labs but difficult to follow sometimes because its new material for us.  We don’t always understand the lab before going into it.

·         Explain the lab procedure before we begin.
