  3. I thought the review packets we got for some units were extremely helpful for test preparation. It made me realize the importance of full unit reviewing and now I do it for every test we have.

  4. I felt the comprehensive review tests were incredibly helpful, though I struggled to understand when we would need to verify a trig identity in the future, so therefore struggled to master that curriculum.

  5. * I liked understanding the homework of a chapter and knowing exactly how to do a similar problem on the test.
    * I did not like finding out I didn't put an effort to fully understand a section of homework, on the day of the test.

  6. I found the flipped lessons to be a useful tool for learning, because I could take my time and really understand the material at my own pace before coming into class to work. Also, being able to do most of the homework in class helped ease my overall workload throughout the week.

  8. -I really liked the reviews before tests, as they recapped most of what we learned each unit.
    -I struggled with knowing when to use the different probability rules.
    -I learned that doing all of the homework means I'll be less stressed on the test day.
    -I gained the ability to recognize what is important and what types of problems or concepts I had trouble with.
    -Making us learn at home and allowing us to ask questions during class helped me learn concepts faster.

  12. - I like how you share personal experiences with your students
    - I struggled with focusing on homework in class
    - I learned not to study for tests the day before
    - anything valuable gained
    - I like how i get to take my time learning a new topic with the flipped lessons, instead of trying to keep up with a live teacher

  14. I liked the review packets
    I liked being able to have notes from the flipped lesson before the teaching in class

  15. -I really liked the flipped lessons because I always got more homework done in those units when I had more time in class to ask questions
    -I think that it was harder to focus with the two classrooms learning next to us
    -I learn that I do best on tests when I do some homework the day its assigned and then go back and do the rest as a review for the test

  18. I enjoyed the review days for the tests, as well as the flipped lessons
    I struggled with the probability rules
    I learned that learning the lesson outside of class then doing the homework in class helps more than doing the homework at home by myself.
