Student Evaluation

Student Comments:

Very responsive, encouraging, and interactive. Gave great detailed feedback. Uses diverse methods of communicating with students.

Professor Cheng gives detailed and specific feedback on each assignment. I appreciate her insight and knowledge on the topics discussed.

Dr. Cheng was so great! When we were notified that the class was too big and we were  going to be split into two different sections I was scared to be taken out of her class and the good news is – I wasn’t! I wanted to stay in her class because she is a young, new graduate and I knew that she would have 21st Century teaching styles. She also introduced to me several new websites that I am now obsessed with including Animoto, Canva and more. She always made sure to comment on my work and she truly interacted with students on multiple different occasions. She was fantastic.

The instructor was actively involved with the students, providing solid feedback and engagement with our work. She was also flexible, supportive, and understanding given the added constraints and challenges that we experienced this semester. Thanks for all the great feedback you gave on each assignment.

The instructor did a great job designing the course structure as well as providing her students with engaging reading materials.

I liked that she provided feedback along with grades that included additional resources. I liked that with the VoiceThread assignment we were able to test it out the week prior to being tasked with an assignment using that.

The professor was always responsive, and helpful when I had questions. I appreciated her encouragement and support!

Instructor was very organized and communicated very well

Dr. Cheng kept the course organized and gave timely feedback. When I contacted her, she got back to me over the weekend, which I didn’t expect.
Overall Dr. Cheng supplied good feedback and insights.

The instructor is very responsive. Whenever I had a question or confusion, I email her, and I got satisfactory help right way. I remember one time, I forgot to update the title of the book, and she reached out to me and asked me if I am having any trouble selecting it or if I need any help regarding it. I was thankful for the reminder because it skipped from my mind and I could have lost points.

Thanks also for allowing for multiple means of expression throughout the course. Even though I mostly chose to write my responses in the traditional manner, I found that I also really enjoyed the option of submitting audio responses and that is a new door that was opened for me that I will definitely take advantage of in future courses.

I really can’t think of anything to suggest. I appreciated the variety of formats she encouraged us to use for responses, which was a true advantage for students entering the field of technology. If anything, I would just say – don’t stop that kind of opportunity! I loved using various technologies for assignment submissions and think that added a lot of value to this course. Please keep teaching like you do

I think she organized the course really well and for now, additional updates are not required.

Very helpful course on computer technology. A class that I recommend everyone to take.

I think this is a very useful course that thoroughly covers the importance of technology, not only in education, but in the students’ future professions. I enjoyed how it was half in-person and half online. Although this hybrid class allowed for barely any face to face time, the instructor always managed to get in all of the information that she needed to for the week. Difficulty of the course was below average, but still very stimulating.

This class was a very informative class and I felt that I know a lot more about educational technology that I can apply in my future career.

I believe that your approach to this class made me want to learn more and was very helpful in giving me that opportunity. The fact that you believed and gave us the chance to do our best was great!

The course structure flows well and is not too difficult, but also allows you to use a wide variety of tools. I cannot think of anything to change within this course.

This course taught me a lot about a topic that I thought I already knew almost everything on. Literally everything I learned in this class can be used in my profession and the professor ensured that I recognized this through each assignment.

It was helpful and I learned a lot of tools I can use in the future.

At first I thought this course was going to not benefit me that much because I thought I knew everything I would use as an educator when it comes to technology. After completing this course though I have learned how to use tools that I didn’t even know existed, and many of them i know that I will use when I am an educator and also as I continue my own education.
