19. If you were teaching this course:
a. What would you do to improve it?
b. What would you change?
|
| Nothing. The instructor did everything to help each individual out to get the subjects known to everyone of us. |
| nothing |
| have a lab assistant |
| Brief Review |
| The course was taught in the best possible way. |
| i liked everything
|
| none. |
| i would lecture a bit more before doing the lab so the students have a little backround information about the lab before jumping into it. |
| The only thing I would change, would be strict on the persons who do not follow the rules. |
| This lab was great. Special thanks to Roberta for making sure we had our fetal pigs on time. |
|
|
20. What do you think of the teacher and his/her teaching methods?
|
| Great. It was easy to understand. If you did not get it, she would keep telling you until you got it. Always nice and well liked by everyone in the class. |
| good |
| Sometimes very vague....her labwork instructions were not clear. |
| she explained everything and always answered our ?'s |
| Well |
| Very clear, articulate and made abstract concepts much more easy to understand. |
| one of my favorite teachers. everything was really good |
| great! Shes the best. |
| i think roberta is wonderful as a teacher and a person, she allows students to learn certain concepts on their own, which is the best way to learn sometimes. |
| I believe the instructor was fair at everything she did. She did her best to prepare us for the test prior to it. She would give us examples. I do believe her teaching method was very good. |
| I like Roberta's style of teaching. |
|
|

22. Other comments:
|
| Great teacher I would take her agian. She is well known now to everyone as a easy going teacher who cares if you know the material. If not, she will help you. One of the best teachers that I have had through out the years of my college life. |
| none |
| Good teacher....gives chances to bring out the best in you! |
| Mahalo |
| It would help the teacher and students if there were more designated space for each class so that one teacher and their class could have their own particular area. |
| If I had to grade her I would give her an A+ |
|
|

19. If you were teaching this course:
a. What would you do to improve it?
b. What would you change?
|
| nothing she did a good job. |
| Everything was okay. |
| The class was taught very well and there's nothing I would change. |
| I really liked the way Roberta taught our microbiology lecture. I might not change anything, except maybe having more visuals on her power point presentations? I'm pretty hardcore about visuals---I know she is too because she brought many different exampl |
| The only thing I would have like was for the class session to be a little bit longer -- perhaps by 15 minutes. Sometimes it felt a bit rushed because of our time constraints. |
| Slow down a little to allow some time ( 15-20 seconds) between material to allow us to absorb the information. Especially the more complicated material. |
| The course was taught in the best possible way. |
| Slow down while teaching. Leave a little room for student comment, questions. |
| nothing. i liked it all |
| Everything! |
| send powerpoint or other things on time and not an hour before class start |
| nothing |
| I would have been more prepared for course and instruction. I personally sometimes felt that she paid attention to just a few in the front row & the rest of the class was left on there own. |
| Nothing, she was great |
| i would no change anything. i liked how roberta taught with the power points but also lectured to clarify complicated ideas,and also realted topics to her own personal experience. |
| I would grade the presentations on complete/ incomplete. I dont think people should be graded on public speaking or presentation effectiveness |
| Nothing everything has exceeded my expectations |
| I would leave it as is. |
| I wouldn't change anything or make any improvements |
| If I was to teach the class I would have the students read alot more from the text. |
| maybe give more homework. |
| Nothing |
| N/A |
| If I was teaching this course, I would just make the classes longer. |
|
|

| Very helpful, and practical. |
| Very clear, fair and interesting. |
| I think that Mrs. Brashear was brilliant in allowing the students to print out powerpoints for each chapter before the begining of classes. |

33. What things did you get from this course that will benefit you personally?
|
| knowing all the bacteria that is growing all around us. |
| Through the presentations that everyone did the class, I learned a great
deal and has made me aware of how to hanle things we take for granted in our every day life.
|
| I feel I learned MUCH about different diseases that many people face. As a nursing major I will be able to apply many of the things about different microorganisms to my job situation--different symptoms of certain diseases caused by certain organisms--I l |
| It made me have a better sense of awareness of the environment which we live in, and also it's impact on our health. |
| General knowledge of microbiology |
| THe subject matter has always been interesting to me and I learned so much more than I every thought imaginable!
It also gave me the tools I need for nursing and nursing school. |
| It has taught me more about being a team player. |
| i learned alot of new skills that will be helpful for my career |
| Nothing. |
| I already had some experience with this stuff before, but it was nice to go into depth about this things. |
| ability to speak to audiance |
| All the parts of the body |
| just more of a general knowledge of microbiology. |
| Now, I know that there are microorganisms everywhere. And now I make sure my daughters wash there hands clean and to be sure not to stick anything in there mouths or nose. |
| personally i am more comfortable speaking in front of the class and learned that every class you enter is like a family. everyone learns from eachother and can help others in need. |
| I learned about different microorganisms and how some could be beneficial and some can be bad. I learned a lot of new information that will defintely help in my daily life. |
| A new found knowledge and understanding of cells, their functions and microbes, DNA, aseptic techniques that will help me excel in the nursing field. |
| i learned how much this field of study applies to everyday life |
| The information about pathongens and diseases. I can relate this to the medicle field. |
| it helped me understand new things about bacteria. and i think it will be beneficial to my major. |
| I know what is out there that can potentially harm me. |
| I learned how to work better with others, especially not knowing them. Ive learned many different skills that could be useful in the future. |
| I have learned of the other world that has always existed..that is the world of Microbiology. I am more aware of my surrounding, the environment and what other microbes are out there that we should know about. |
| i learned my learning and study habits and how i should improve them |

45. My overall evaluation of this instructor is....
|
| over all the professor knew what she was talking about and she made it very interesting for us to learn. |
| This class was straight-forward and easy to follow. I enjoyed how she was able to simplify difficult concepts for us in ways that allowed us to grasp the point. |
| she is an excellent instructor. I would take another class from her. |
| A+ |
| Roberta is a very good teacher who knows her business. She should continue teaching because of her different teaching tatics which prove she enjoys what she does. |
| I would highly recommend this class with this instructor. Science was never an interesting topic to me until I enrolled in this course. Much appreciated. |
| She did a very good job! |
| Great instructor that is very interested in students learning. |
| GOOD |
| she needs a raise! |
| She just didn't help me learn anything, infact when we asked for help she would tell us to do whatever and just focus on her favorite students!!! |
| I think the instuctor did a very good job. She was very informative and made sure that we tried to do our best. She knew what we were capable of and it was inspiring. |
| A+ |
| I think she was well oriented in the subject matter, however she could have been more organized for class instruction. I would have liked exams to be more challenging. |
| I thought she was great, she knew the information that was being talked about. She didnt need the textbook. I always thought about how does she have the time and energy to do all of these things because I am in four of her classes. She made it through thi |
| roberta is a good teacher who although is strict and clear with her standards, is also personable, helpful and understanding to all students. |
| very good |
| I think this instructor does a great job in teaching this course. She clearly understands this subject and it shows through her teachings. I will most likely end up choosing another course with her as the instructor. |
| She is an asset to this school. She is the perfect example of a great instructor. I look forward to taking another class from her again. |
| excellent instructor |
| she's awesome. good teacher. look forward to having her next semester! =] |
| She was a awesome professor. She was realistic and didnt make us to unrealistic things such as memorize 5 chapters in 3 weeks like some other teachers. You cant learn that way. |
| she was very inspirational to me. Throughout high school I never liked science of any kind. But after taking this class I have grown to love it. |
| Ms. Brashear gives many information on subjects of microbiology well. She hits all the points that is needed for us to learn about a certain subject. She is fair in all her dealings with all the different students. She will come down to your level to m |
| shes all g (good) |
