How have the readings and exercises helped or not helped your learning? Helpful Not helpful ------- ----------- ++++ Learned useful information - Humor is distracting +++ Interactive, like exercises -- Exercises are annoying/unhelpful ++ Step-by-step, repeats key points - Pace too slow ++ Not too dense, accessible - Content is sparse ========= What's something you want the class (or me in particular) to sustain after fall break? What's something you want the class (or me in particular) to improve after fall break? Sustain Improve ------- ------- ** Reviewing key points * Less review, more new stuff ** Class activities ** Do more activities ***** Discussion * End class on time *** Considering multiple perspectives ** Write more code * Daily agenda * Use better coding practices * Instructor availability * Make labs shorter * Labs as a "crash course" * Make lab instructions more clear * Make difficulty of pre-class exercises more consistent ========= What's one topic you want to learn more about after fall break? ** Design patterns (x2) - will do. You can also buy the optional book! ** Multimedia (x2) - I'm afraid we don't have enough time! * Databases - was already planning to do * Different kinds of software development tools - everyone * Web standards and validation - 1.5 * Sequence diagrams - 1 * More on TurboGears (be more specific?) * More on Python (be more specific?)
