Same teacher different class, same grade. This class is a carbon copy of the last. There is almost no deviation from what she says and how she conducts the class.
+ She is structured and fallows the course outline
- This might be a sign that she is losing her enthusiasm for teaching and has not imagination.
I understand that the same material is suppose to be taught for each class, but it would be nice to see some personality.
During the test the students are allowed to keep their head-phones on. I DO NOT AGREE!!
Academically it is clear what the teacher wants done, because she writes it down for the students to see.
One student cheats on the test—she either acts like she doesn’t see it nor does nothing about it. I will not tolerate cheating.
Class is silent: Student throws something across the room—teacher does nothing about it.
She has to regain/demand control of the class room by changing her voice, but does not yell. Instead of switching back and forth between doing nothing—then doing something (in reprimands) I feel that the teacher should always have control of the class and be consistent.
She ends the class with a speech on the importance of grades and how two students used their time wisely in the class
I do not agree with singling out students in front of the class for good or bad. If you want to praise a student do it in private.

Interesting class.
I have to say that the whole headphones in -class thing drives me crazy. Some teachers allow it, some do not - even when the school has a "policy" on headphones.
Good luck with this class. Sounds like it will be a good learning expiereince.
