Class Feedback on Humanities 11


Class A
Class B
What is going well?

-Willing to communicate with students
-The pace
-Group work time
-Like having choice of when to work on assignments
-The content is interesting (Different perspective)
-Providing lots of ways to understand readings
-Honors is going well because it's not too much extra work
-DP is very well organized and very useful
-Being able to email and share documents is a relief
Fun class
Liking the topics
Good context
Seemed to always understand the topic when done
Like the way the honors works is going
Like the way the DP is set up very helpful
Like Edmodo
Better understanding of morality.
Good pace
The activities
Liked how we have spontaneous debates

What needs refinement?

-Scaling back on the amount of readings. Do more in class work (Notes, investigations, lectures)
-Lots of readings about a similar subject. Sort of helpful, but more repetitive. Would have been more helpful to have an overview
-Less student teaching student. We don't always understand the subject
-Doing something with the reading. Do something in class to help develop a perspective on it.
-Go more in depth. We need more understanding
-Starting new things while we are finishing up others
-Hard to keep everything straight and understanding why we are doing what we are doing. Confusing.
-Doesn't tie together
-Too much overlap of subjects
-Handouts can get lost really easily if they are handed out prematurely. Would help to have a recap. Less paper, more talking.
-Enough time to get the products done but not enough time to make it as good as we can. Our work doesn't really reflect how good we really are.
Too much reading to comprehend in a certain matter of time
More detailed lecture/ more overall pictures
Coordinating with other teachers
More in class work time
More in depth understanding/ more activities/ more hands on
One project on top of another. (Wait till we finish one project before going onto another)
Overview reading (so we know what we are getting into)
More class debates
More time to digest
More verbal projects
