6. Which aspects of the course were most valuable?
|
| The different methods and hands-on examples of different techniques. |
| Suzanne is a very capable teacher and has very good insight and information to share about
embellishing low fire pieces, her personal antidotes and encouragement really made this course
worth while. |

13. Please list your suggestions for improving the course and/or the instructor's teaching style and methods.
|
| Nothing, but the safety tests should be given out earlier in the semester. |
| I found it difficult to keep up with due dates and as to what exactly was expected. I felt like
Suzanne assumed that most of her students were familiar with low fire ceramics and sometimes
would brush over important aspects, like certain demonstrations. Her teaching style is lax, but she
expects so much. I think a better correlation between her demonstrations and her final expectation
for pieces would help the course. Also, I think that too much emphasis was put onto Laulima. For
a course like ceramics, hands on experience is key, I don't want to read about what to do, I am in
school and I show up to class so that someone with experience can show me first hand about what
to do. |
