24. Other comments:
|
| It was a pleasure Mr. Parke to listen to your mana'o. |
| Great class. Really sparked my interest in other areas of sustainability and water issues. |
| good video selection, i enjoyed the one on privatization of water in other countries |
| I love this class. It was an eye opener and life changing course. I think there should be more courses like this because it addresses modern issues in our society. If all my classes were like this I would enjoy being in school a lot more. I really enjoy having Dr. Parke he seemed very passionate and knowledgeable. Even though this wasn't an ethics intensive course it certainly fulfilled the requirements of one. I will walked out of this class as a more responsible individual and will always respect and conserve water. The only complaints is that I wish the videos we watched could have shown on the projector slide because the tv screen was too small to watch. |
| Amazing class and awesome teacher! |
| Great course! Dr. Parke demonstrated great knowledge in the topic of water
related issues and expressed a strong concern for the interests of the
students in his class. He regularly encouraged students to ask questions and
to participate in class and was an excellent professors and explained
difficult concepts into understandable concepts. |
| I would love to take more courses from this instructor! |
| Outstanding instructor who definitely knows and transmits excitement for his field. |
| Great structure for the class and the readings were well selected. The projects and assignments seemed to be easy but it really showed when one did not do the reasearch/work. This again attests to the great structure of the class. |
| Michael Parke is a great teacher for Geography 305. He is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject matter covered in this course. It is very clear that he cares about his students' understanding of the material, as well as passing on his enthusiasm to his students. I feel like I learned a lot in this class, and I am much more concerned and AWARE of the issues between water and society today. |
| An interesting and thought provoking course that is well worth taking for students in any major. |
| This class was AWESOME! It was by far one of my favorite courses at UH Manoa. Super interesting and perfect for my major. I hope this course continues in later semesters with Michael Parke. |
| This was one of my favorite courses Ive taken in 3 years. The class format was a very good pace and the structure of assignments was no-pressure, and allowed for learning and understanding rather than getting stressed to complete it in time |
