Student Comments on GGR 241
Thank you for a nice class in this and 240. I enjoyed 240, which was taken as an elective over the summer, and needed still another elective, so I took 241. The last time I took geography was in high school and I wont say how long it was, but this was my second time back to college.
I have encountered many different varieties of on-line classes and yours was amongst the higher quality. Your instructors and you responded to e-mails within a reasonable amount of time and grades were always prompt.
Comments from annonymous end fo semester course evaluations
A well structured class that was easy to follow, the instructor would answer
e-mail within 24 hrs or less. He was more than fair in grading and evaluations.
The class was structured for learning.

This was my first web class in my college experience and after taking this
one I will take more.

Course was very organized and easy to follow. Test, exams and essays were planned
ahead and the student knew what to expect, when. Good class!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This was certainly the best organized course I have taken. The instructor was
very prompt in replying to e-mail and extremely helpful. I wish all of my courses
were comparable to this one!

This was a great class that increased my interest in geography. I am an accounting
major and it was nice to have some different material in my coursework. I would
recommend this class to others and am looking forward to taking US georgraphy
in the spring. The only downfall of this course were the quizzes. They tested
very specific facts that were hard to find and remember.

This class was a lot of fun. Learnt a lot. Thank you
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Excellent teacher, I especially like the idea that you can retake the quiz
and it is open book and gives you a chance to completely cover the readings
over and over again to understand the text. I think that is excellent and I
did learn a lot.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I loved this class though it was difficult and very rushed. Thanks for the
knowledge I gained and the knowledge you possess.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It really is a great class and even though it is a web class, I am amazed at
how well you can learn about the professor and how much they know and how much
you can actually learn. It took some work but it was indeed a learning experience.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Interest class which gave me some insight about other cultures throughout the
world, which I know I will not be able to visit. It was great to finally get
an idea what the other regions are about. I enjoyed Dr. Lew's class and I learned
a lot.
