Please
give an example of something done well in ECE 321:
Live-Stream
§
There are a lot of labs and a good breadth of
topics covered
§
Office hours were always maintained
Please
give an example of something that needs improvement ECE 321:
Live-Stream
§
In lectures and notes, some examples skip a
lot of steps in solving which can make it hard to understand the process. This
can make the homework feel more like copying past homework instead of
understanding the concepts.
§
More in depth explanations of concepts
§
It would be nice to see a few more examples
within the lecture content even if it is not present during class.
§
i think it
was okay
ECE 321: Fall 2021

§
Bison Academy was such a helpful resource.
When there was a concept that I was lagging behind on, there was a lot of
content that I could go through that would help me gain a better understanding.
Online
§
I just really enjoy taking an online course
with such good resources.
§
Everything was visible all semester so there
were no surprises.
§
To give us every weeks the quiz
§
I like the way we take quiz every weeks. It’s
good method to help us learn.

I wish the format for this class was similar
to ece 376 (in person and in zoom). I do not know how
to explain it, but only online classes just not helpful for me. I need to go to
class in person; it helps me learn better.
Online
§
We were supposed to build a push pull
amplifier for one of the parts of HW3. We hadn't done this before and I ended
up frying my circuit. I think that this would be a good lab portion for a
previous homework. It wasn't a big deal, I just
thought it might be good for the future.
§
Add some small, non-graded problems that
would help re-enforce what was learned in lectures.
§
I need more help
§
You need to change your office hours because
always when I have question I never have chance how to ask that question
because I always prefer to ask in person. Also, the TA office is only one day
afternoon like 5pm. It’s not all students we can have that time. Honestly the
methods you used to teach are perfect it’s just something of us, we are poor in
English that why we need a little bit help to understand better.
ECE 321: Fall 2018
▪ There was so much material presented that it was hard to
filter what was more relevant and what was less relevant. This ultimately made
it harder to learn.
▪ I thoroughly enjoyed electronics. Dr. Glower knows his
stuff and wants to see us succeed. My only suggestion for improvement would be
to do some more examples written out for the students to follow along.
▪ Some of the things on the quizzes were very lightly
touched on in class. HW on everything that is going to be on the quiz would be
helpful.
▪ Dr. Glower is very good at helping students understand
the content of this course . He also does an awesome
job of grading things quickly.
▪ Dr. Glower is very helpful. He wants his students to
learn and succeed. He is always available and wanting to help students.
▪ Not a fan of quizzes being 50% of grade
▪ Please correct errors in your pdf files
▪ Only gave in-between on communication because it is
sometimes hard to grasp material if instructor gets talking too fast
▪ Does a great job getting
information back to us. Makes the class fun and understandable.
ECE 321: Spring 2018
▪ IME101 is not great for a lecture course.
▪ Sometimes there are errors in the notes that affect my
understanding of the material. Sometimes goes through examples a bit too fast.
▪ He's good.
▪ Notes online have some typos.
▪ Dr. Glower is a great instructor. My only complaint is
that he should use blackboard - all teachers should update grades in the same
place. The notes are good and the hw
helped for the quizzes.
▪ Update the notes more often.
▪ Dr. Glower steps through his math too fast and leaves it
out of his notes assuming everyone gets it. It's very unhelpful. Otherwise love
the Godzilla bonus questions.
▪ Go through more examples. Slowly then explain all work.
▪ Sometimes goes too fast otherwise great.
▪ Glower should teach all of my classes.
▪ I loved this class.
▪ Can Glower teach all of my classes?
▪ Love Bison Academy.
