Appendix: 31.
I'd appreciate any comments you have about what you liked or disliked about this class or suggestions on how to improve Honors Physical Science at SHS?

Data
Code	Value
19749025	match students on the computer (for programs) depending on grades to get an idea of how fast/ slow they take to understand a concept. That way if a fast learner is paired with a slow learner, the fast learner isn't held up and the slow learner doesn't just copy off of him/her.
19749560	A little more keynotes and a little less computer programs. I find tough material much easier to learn when it is audibly being taught to me by a person, and a little more challenging when i'm learning it by reading off a screen (or book).
19750063	It was hard.
19752859	The inquizitions were also a good idea. The one for the final helped a lot.
19752952	duh+2
19753162	Enjoyed your class. Thanks. :)
19753239	the class was difficult but very fair and benefiting
19753937	A difficult class that prepares well for the future
19753870	good teaching but too much work at one time we have other classes with homework and having multiple assignments a night in just science makes getting all your work done hard. making grades in other classes drop as well as this class.
19753894	maybe give more examples to help understand the concept more
19754088	It was a very hard class and I often felt overwelmed, but I learned alot.
19754075	it is a good class and it is very interesting but its too hard and if you fall behind it is almost impossible to catch up no matter what you do
19754221	study sheets too hard and concept maps take awhile to do too.
19754219	It was a hard class but i learned a lot. Lots of kids probly can't handle it, but when you try hard anythings possible
19754099	Make study sheets more interesting its all just boring work. Put some fun into it.
19754548	it was a really hard class. i learned a lot maybe in the up comming years dont give as much work i mean their only freshman
19757929	ok well i think that your class helped me alittle bit but i think you could of explained it better because somtimes i didnt really understand some of the things you were talking about , also i liked the pre test we had ever new chapter they seemed to help me a little better . Other than that i thought your class helped me understand science a little better .
19758404	less home work
19761544	I would've liked to see more keynotes for more chapters, because they're easier to study off of. I also would've liked to see variety in the topics for the extra credit brainpop, such as diseases. Also, I think that Mr.Gilliland should use more visual representations, such as using more models during the class. I think that Mr.Gilliand used creative and effective techniques to teach us students. He is a great teacher!
19771982	Thanks for a great year! The way you teach works, and is very interactive. Your class was my favorite class and I learned a whole lot. Thakns!
