Course Evaluations
Last night, Meredith and I finished the coding of our semester project. This is exciting for us because that means that we have the rest of the week to ensure that the application works correctly before delivering it on Friday. The application takes project one and expands it to have up to 20 pool balls bouncing on the pool table at once.
After finishing our meeting I went to my girlfriend's, who is a first-year sophomore living in Eagle Hall, to help her put her room back to the original condition. When she moved in, in August, the beds in her room were lofted; therefore before 23-hour quiet hours beginning on Friday for exams, we had to put the beds back up and take out the carpet. This is significant because it involved the dismantling of both beds and shuffling of furniture. I was impressed when I got there after my ISAT project meeting with her and her roommate's progress.
Today, in lab we celebrated the end of the semester with evaluations (as is normal for JMU classes). This is the opportunity to give your opinion and evaluation of the course, the instructor, the workload, the homework, and the lab components of the course.

Here Dr. Altaii prepares to leave the room, as faculty are required to do during the evaluation process, but before doing so he is going over a few details before our last large lecture tomorrow and finals next week. Dr. Altaii has been a great professor, and by the way he teaches the course, it is apparent that he cares about his students and their comprehension of the material. I look forward to having him for ISAT 212, Energy Issues in Science and Technology, during summer session in May.

Here I am finishing my evaluation for Dr. Altaii as the last lab session comes to a close. The form I'm filling out is a standardized ISAT evaluation form. The composition notebook beside me is my lab notebook for ISAT 253.
It's coming to the bittersweet end of another semester.
