1. What do you feel has been done well in the teaching and adminisfration of this course?

"Great use of different methods to stimulate interest in the subject matter,"

ooThe
instructor created an open discussion, and positive learning environment. Related the topics to
modern issues very we11."

"This was an interesting course with a passionate professor. I think that she did a great job. It got long at
times but I think that was because it was at 8:30am."

"The PowerPoints with videos helped me learn the material better. It pror-ided a visual which always
helps."

"The instructor seemed to be very interested in making sure each student u-as leaming."

"She was the most understanding and caring teacher/professor that I have er er had i, *y entire 1ife. She
understood the struggles that college students faced and she didn't put pressure on them in an1'rlat'. She
always started the day with a video clip to -eet us interested in the day's less n."

"The way she taught the class for a better understanding."

"Relating material to current events."

"The teacher did well teaching effectively using lecture and porrerpoint to add to my learning.''

"The pace was nice and she was always in a good mood."

"Covering the material in a clear manner, bringing in fun ways to remember timelines."

"Stacy is very understanding and very smart in her atea."

"She did a great job of keeping the energl'up in class."

"She made it a fun environment to be a part of. I really enjol'ed this class."
,.Wonderful teacher with a wealth of knogledge. She taught in a r-ery effective manner that helped me
understand the history at hand."

"Good group discussions."

 "The teacher loves the material and enjoys teaching. She is very laid back and understanding, and is'my
favorite professor."

"Videos helped us learn."

"The class was made very interesting. This was a class that I actually looked forward to coming to
because the professorwas very intriguing to listen to. I think everything was explained well."

"All content was gone over and made clear."

"Understanding student's situations, preparation for exams, stimulating interest in content, delivering
lectures, making worthy and interesting assignments, keeping the discussion going."

"She made the class interesting always. She had an inviting classroom setting that made this class
enjoyable. She was the first history teacher that made me enjov it."

course content. and made my learning engaging. I highly recommend her."

2, What suggestions do you have for improving and strengthening the teaching and administration of
this course?

"Finding some administrative $-a\,to make students take part in the discussion if it's not impossible. Sad
to be one of the few contributing in the discussion. This is mainly an issue with students."

"By midsem class discussion was focused on specific documents, I think that should stay that way."

"Maybe taking out the discussion da1-s. I leel it u ould be more beneficial to have a lecture 3 days a week
in order to learn the material and every-once in a u-hile take a break and read primary documents."

"More hands on activities."

"Have the class not be an 8am"

"I would say to ma1-be set higher expectations. Despite my leaming in this class, I think papers oculd
have been graded a little tougher."

"Isurgest that she grade a linle more criticalll only because then there rvould be a gteater sense to
achieve success."

"This course was crazy easl . it u ould have been nice to actualll' rvork for my A."
 "I honestly like everything she did."

"I think she did a great job!"

..NOTHING!!!<3"

"Lecture notes got to be long somedays."

"Don't use the readings(?) It's important to do those types of history and look at different sources of
levels, but it's so dry."
