Q3. Work completed with and/or discussions with other students in this course helped me to understand the subject matter of the course.

a. Moderately Agree. Sometimes it was hard to contribute to discussions because I didn’t have the sense the questions wanted us to answer.
b. Moderately Agree. The opinions and generation of knowledge by other students of the class helped me to understand the subject matter.
c. Strongly Agree. No comment.
d. Moderately Agree. Never had to work with other students, but class discussions were often fruitful.
e. Moderately Agree. Discussions were typically good.
f. (Read Scale Wrong! See comments.) Strongly Disagree. Discussions were very purposeful, logical, and intellectual. I thought Professor Silva did a great job leading them.
g. Slightly Agree. Maybe we could have a little more group discussion.
h. Strongly Agree. Class discussions were very helpful in understanding the readings.
i. Strongly Agree. No comment.
j. Moderately Agree. No comment.
k. Moderately Agree. Didn’t really do much small group work.
l. Slightly Agree. We did not work very much in groups. I think it would have been helpful.
m. Moderately Agree. No comment.
n. Strongly Agree. Getting further questions answered was very helpful outside class.
o. Moderately Agree. The main interaction with other students was through class discussion.
p. Not Applicable/Don’t Know. No comment.
q. Not Applicable/Don’t Know. No comment.
r. Moderately Agree. The e-mails the night before (from the instructor) helped remind the students what to focus on, but not everybody came prepared, so—discussions lagged/accelerated depending on how well students read.
s. Moderately Agree. Class discussion usually interesting. Good that there are no group projects.
t. Strongly Agree. No comment.
u. Slightly disagree. No comment.
v. Not Applicable/Don’t Know. No group/partner work.
