16. What are the instructor's major strengths as a teacher?
|
| He uses his own brand of humor to make topics interesting and the learning
environment friendly. |
| Noah is a great teacher who uses humor to help students to better understand
the subject matter. He is very charismatic and I would definitely take him
for another course. |
| He knew the subject area very well and his way of teaching was very helpful. I like how we're supposed to read the chapters first, take the quiz for understanding and then the following days go more in-depth on it for further clarification. |
| Very knowledgeable and energetic. |
| Noah is VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE in his work field. Made me think for myself, and taught us more
than what I expected to learn in class. |

18. What changes, if any, do you suggest to the instructor?
|
| To stay more toward textbook questions for the 100 level introductory
courses. |
| give more examples to make things clearer |
| None |
| I would greatly appreciate it if he took the time to give more examples involving NUMBERS. It would
help me understand MORE cause physics does a GREAT deal with numbers, but when he gives
examples its more like letters.. and then solve the rest. =/ |
|
|
19. How did the instructor show concern for students?
|
| Made himself available for outside council. |
| Noah was always willing to shift exam dates and repost quizzes after their
due date to give students a second chance. Noah is very friendly and it's
always a pleasure to be in his class. |
| He would ask if we understood the material and sometimes he would just get that we kinda don't and gives further examples but other times he would just go on because nobody spoke. |
| Kept in constant contact with us. Included our opinions |
| Gave opportunity to students to a few days to take the quiz if they missed it.. |
|
|
20. Would you recommend this instructor to students? Why or why not?
|
| Yes, the class is fun and entertaining as well as informative. |
| yes, because it is a fun and easy way to learn from him. |
| I would highly recommend Noah to any student, whether they have an interest
of physics or need to take a science course. |
| I would for reasons such as he's a really nice, friendly, funny, and a laid back kind of guy. As a teacher, he's okay but you just really need to know your stuff. But his teaching styles are really great. |
| Yes, he made the class fun yet informative |
| Hummm.. somewhat? Depends.. Well the reason why I liked his class is that we had homework,
quizes, exams, and extra credit which was good cause then we could get more points. |

22. What else would you like to say about this instructor?
|
| He excels at not taking himself overly serious. This is accomplished by
establishing a uniform status with all of his students (he tries hard not to
belittle students with his teaching degree). |
| Noah, you're a great teacher. Try teaching some other courses so I can have
you again! |
| I just really love his teaching styles and his homeworks and projects are pretty easy as well. |
| He should teach other instructors about student interaction |
| Honestly.. he is a wonderful person, very fun, intelligent, good personality, but when it comes to
the test.. the average of grades of all the students had in the exams were very bad. For example
the average for our most recent test of 20 out of 50 (that's pretty bad). But what can I say.. physics
is a very tough subject.. but you think.. this is physics 100? |
