22. How did the instructor show concern for students?
|
| Sarah was always eager to answer questions and make sure that her students thoroughly understood the subject matter. |
| Was concerned about late assignments. |
| Sarah showed great interest in hearing from all her students, and opened many venues for class participation. |
| making sure we all grasped the material. |
| Paying attention to and respecting all the students ideas and views. |
| She constantly emphasizes the importance to ask questions and voice opinions. |
| The instructor would notice when we missed class and would always be more than happy to help us get caught up. She would also give us more than enough time to ask questions to ensure that everyone had asked all the questions they needed to ask. |
| She was willing to meet after class with students |
| Concern for the students? She... lets us turn in our think logs late? But no, this instructor definitely wants her students to succeed and learn, and understand the subject matter. She is very easy to talk to, and very thorough when it comes to explaini |
| opportunities to improve on bad grades. Help for improvement also. |
| Sarah always made herself available to talk to outside of class, whether it was for answering questions or reiterating something that was talked about in class. |
| Through her general interest in both issues facing us as students, as well as her willingness to lend an ear when personal issues were causing problems for us. |
| When one don't understand the materials she will try to explain it in a different way. |
| The instructor does try to get to everyone and their questions. If anything happened outside of class or anything else class related she does try to follow up on it. |
| Mrs. Hadmack was always available whenever I needed her or was quick to return phonecalls and emails. |
|
|
23. What did you especially like/dislike about the way the instructor taught this course?
|
| I really enjoyed compiling the portfolio assignment she gave early on in the year; it allowed for ample introspection as well as a conctructive creative outlet as did the majority of her assignments. |
| Wouldn't try to freeze us by turning down thermostat so low. |
| I especially like the reading quizes, think logs and portfolio assignments as they created opportunities for reflection. |
| She was never predictable. she made sure we participated. |
| She know the subject well |
| I like how all her assignments were a mix and match of different activities. |
| I liked that the instructor was very organized, but allowed time for the students to explore new ideas too. For example, if we were talking about the Buddhist religion and we had a question about Tibetan Buddhism, she would take time to explain it even if |
| The class was fun and the discussions were interesting and also fun. |
| I'd say the personality of this teacher is pretty genuine. She's a very happy and energetic person, and it really shows in the class. It makes the subject matter very interesting, and even some of the more depressing topics that came up in class were ea |
| i very much liked the motivational and encouraging atmosphere. i believe that creative assignments in class with colored markers should be reserved for elementary school |
| she is just very enthusiastic about her subject. |
| I didn't expect the class discussions to get so intense. Sometimes it was difficult to engage in conversations regarding religion because i'm not very familiar with any religions. |
| I enjoyed the way class discussions and debates were encouraged. I felt they gave everyone an oppurtunity to understand the concepts and themes being displayed, and since she encouraged everyone to contribute their thoughts, we had a complete understandin |
| nothing! |
| I'm not one to talk much so I didnt like the class and group discussions too much which was everyday. Other than that she is very enthusiastic about teaching and getting us to learn, very well planned out and student oriented. |
| She made us realize that not everybody feels the same way about stuff like the soul or an afterlife. I had never really considered that. |
|
|
24. What else would you like to say about this instructor?
|
| Not boring at all. I don't like group activities but many of them like Silent Socratic dialogues were interesting. |
| Sarah approaches religious studies with a sensitive and open mind, and encourages her students to do the same. |
| very impressed with her dedication. |
| She's very witty, don't mess with her. |
| She is really nice and has a cheery attitude. |
| I liked how cheery and friendly she was. She made sure no one felt like she was cold toward them, and I also liked how she wasn't afraid to joke around too. It really made the class much more interesting, though she was very careful not to offend anyone |
| Geat teacher made class fun and creative. |
| She's really happy? Like... REALLY happy. But in a good way of course! |
| very cheerful and wonderful teacher, triggered a lot of constructive criticism and reasoning in students |
| She smiles a lot. |
| i appreciate her willingness to listen to everybody's opinion with complete objectivity. Religion is a |
| Overall, she is and excellent teacher, and I will be recommending her classes to others. |
| She's funny and the class debate was very Interesting. |
| I enjoyed her class. She does try to get everyone involved. |
| Sarah Hadmack was an excellent teacher. |
|
|
25. Would you recommend this instructor to other students? Why or why not?
|
| I would recommend Sarah Hadmack's courses in an instant. She was inexplicably pleasant and an excellent instructor. |
| Yes. See rest of survey. |
| Yes, I have recommended Sarah in the past and will continue to do so in the future. I believe she opens new ways of thinking about religion and the big questions...why are we here, where are we going, what is good and evil, etc.... in ways that are nonthr |
| absolutely. for above reasons. |
| Yah, She's cool. |
| Definitely, she is awesome! She makes learning about different religions FUN!! :) |
| I would definitely recommend this instructor to other students. She really knows the subject she's teaching, and you can really learn a lot from any of her courses. |
| Yes. I learned alot about other religions and the people responsibe, but over all I enjoyed the class b/c she made the class fun. |
| Yeah I'd recommend this instructor. I mean, why not? It was a fun class, and the instructor definitely made it that way. Coming into this class, I thought it would be really boring and dry, I mean, it was the study of religion after all. But I think I |
| absolutey, because of all oof the above |
| Yes. I learned a lot and I I know other students will get a lot out of it as well. |
| YES! i would recommend this instructor to other students because Sarah shows that she cares about her students and she also loves teaching religion. Classes are always easier to sit through when the teacher is excited about the subject they are teaching. |
| Yes, because she creates a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere where you are willing to contribute your thoughts and ideas. |
| Yes, if they one to have a class that they would like to learn and enjoy. |
