13. What did you like about this course, such as activities, projects, assignments, etc.?

Liked that it fully explored the textbook. I learn a lot from Barbaras classes and enjoy the structure of the class. I liked how she gave us a heads up on what was to be on the quizzes so we didn't have to memories the whole chapter but we could focus in on certain topics and really study them, to get better grades on the quizzes There wasn't an over-abundance of work to do outside of class, and the tests were fair. I really enjoyed the way this class was designed. I was allowed to learn many interesting things. Even the more difficult subjects were clearly explained so that I was able to understand them. I loved how well the content was taught. I appreciated that the assignments were straightforward and easy to follow. All assignment work was relevant to the subject.

14. Any suggestions to improve this course?

Keeping quizzes more straight forward and doing one chapter at a time. None, its a great class and helped me understand human biology and anatomy. None. We covered what was needed to be covered in the appropriate time, and covered it in enough depth. None come to mind I think that this course is good as is. I think that I have learned a great deal about the subject matter over the semester and the amount of work provided was fair and appropriate.

15. Other comments:

I wish I had taken the Lab alongside the lecture. All the experiments sounded very interesting. Overall, a great class, a great teacher, and I learned a lot. Thankyou!!!
