"I thoroughly enjoyed this class. I printed out some of the information so I could go back and study it again. There was a wealth of information that was given that I certainly will be able to use."

"I feel refreshed and ready for next quarter!!!"

I think that motivating students is the most important part of learning. Keeping even the most intense course fun is essential. It's easier to learn and retain information if it is presented in several different ways such as lecture, videos, games and sometimes pop quizzes to see if the information has been retained by the students. Life and learning should always be fun and energizing."
