Midterm Feedback for KINE 223
Howdy Ags!
This is a survey that will help me with planning for the rest of the term and for future terms. You
are not required to take this survey, but it helps me to know what is working well and what is
not! Your feedback is important enough to me that I'm giving assignment points for completion
(NOT CONTENT, or positive vs negative feedback) of the survey.
I truly appreciate your feedback.
1. Please comment on the amount of content (things you are learning). Is it appropriate for
a 3-credit course?
a. There’s way too much content/work; I’m overwhelmed.
b. There’s a little too much content, I feel challenged but able.
c. The amount of content seems about right.
d. The course seems a little light on content, it’s really easy to keep up.
e. The course seems VERY light on content, I feel like I’m wasting my time.
f. Other:
Comment please: It is sometimes a lot of information to process, the GABA and glutamate
information especially, took lots of time for me to understand.
2. I am regularly investing time in reading the materials, practicing example problems, and
studying topics that I don’t understand well.
a. Strongly Disagree
b. Disagree
c. Neutral
d. Agree
e. Strongly Agree
Comment please: ***Please communicate approximately how many hours/week you spend
on this course outside of class meeting times, and do your best to accurately estimate the
time. - 3 hrs? it is very specific to the week, it could be much more or none at all

timely.

4. Please comment on the number of assignments/tests.
a. This course has too many assignments. I'd prefer to have fewer, high scoring
assignments/tests.
b. This course has about the right number of assignments/tests.
c. This course has too few assignments. I'd prefer more assignments that have
smaller scores.
Comment please: I feel that more assignments will allow for a more positive grade, maybe
more ted talk videos? The Tests feel too heavy as I did not my best but ok on a test but it still
dropped my grade by almost 4 percentage points.

workout as a late reminder to get it done.

I am very happy with this course and it is one of my favorites! There are just one
or two small things that need attention. These problems could be from the impact
of covid.
