19. If you were teaching this course: a. What would you do to improve it? b. What would you change?

A mandatory group presentation is nice. I really do not know. I know to improve it she could not teach over a TV, but she was still effective.

20. What do you think of the teacher and his/her teaching methods?

Excellent. She uses many different medians to explain and enhance her lectures. She was very practical, and the methods she used to present concepts we were unsure about made them not only more understandable, but interesting. I think considering the circumstances of her being in Waimea, she was fabulous.

21. Has he/she contributed to your general knowledge or to learning job skills?

I have a better understanding of history rather than a knowledge of just facts. Yes.

22. Other comments:

She's a wonderful teacher. Giving us the break during class really helped with the whole 3 hour class.

23. The instructor stresses important points in lectures/discussions.
