I spend about 3 hours per homework assignment, so about 8-9 hours per week (not including the reading/blog post, which I spend about a 30-45 min on each). The readings helped prepare me for the lectures, and the lectures prepare me for the homework assignments. I am glad we are forced to read the textbook because otherwise I don’t think I would, and it has been very helpful. Working in groups and coming to your office to ask questions I still had about homework, even after having had lecture and reading the section has helped immensely as well. Probably the most helpful is the homework assignments – when I cannot understand a question, there are ways of getting help from you or others. This extra help has probably been the most helpful to my understanding.
Office hours for me are not possible for me to attend because I have a class. I sometimes come right before or right after class to ask a question or two, even though those technically are not office hours. I have really appreciated your time you have given to help me during these times – I feel when I can understand the homework, I can understand everything more thoroughly, and there is nothing more discouraging than not being able to understand the homework or material. So anyway, I hope it is alright when I stop by with questions. This is my only comment about the class thus far, other than I love it!
