About You 5.1) On average, how many hours each week did you devote to this course outside the classroom? 15.8% 52.6% 26.3% 5.3% 1 5.2) How many times did you use the Math Help Room (Carver 385) throughout the semester? 2 44.4% 11.1% 3 0% 4 5 22.2% 22.2% Less than 3 1 5.3) 0% Less than 3 2 3 4 5 If you went to the Help Room, how beneficial was that to you? I didn't know there was one. He never told us at all. I usually went to my TA for help on homework and he was helpful I went in and sat down and tried to do work I couldn't and no one helped me, but it seemed to be fairly busy while I was there. It was to some extent. Except that there was never enough helpers in that room and some hated their job and you could tell. Very beneficial when I did not understand how to do an assignment and needed help before the quiz. Very, I almost always left with my questions answered. Yes I thought it was beneficial but I feel as though they should have more helpers in the help room. 01/11/2011 Class Climate evaluation Page 2 Zachary Voller, MATH 140 Section G1 (F2010) [Zachary Voller] 5.4) How many times did you attend a Supplemental Instruction (SI) session throughout the semester? 100% 1 5.5) 0% 0% 0% 0% Less than 3 2 3 4 More than 12 n=2 av.=1 md=1 dev.=0 ab.=15 A, A- n=19 av.=3.37 md=3 dev.=1.01 5 If you took advantage of Supplemental Instruction, how beneficial were those sessions to you? I did not go to any SI sessions. I was not aware of any SI available for this course but it would have been very helpful 5.6) 5.3% 10.5% 36.8% 36.8% 10.5% What grade do you expect from this course? F 1 5.7) 2 3 4 5 Additional Comments Great Instructor! The homework assignments are too long, the no calculator rule is ridiculous and the fact that half the final exam offers no partial credit is unreasonable. Half the time the instructors don't even get the perfect answer when trying to help students. This is an amazing instructor. Don't be stupid and let him go. He's very devoted to the class and very rewarding to those that work hard. 6.
