With an online, hybrid or face-to-face course, teacher-student interaction can be

unique. Students are encouraged to share questions and/or concerns through a variety of
communication tools (office hours, Gallaudet email, MyThread, GallaudetIM, Gallaudet
videochat, Blackboard and more.) Did you find your instructor to be accessible and
responsive?

Dr. Harris is really encouraged me to benefit the education course a lot. Thank you!
Dr. Raychelle is very effective in his teaching. Not many are able to stimulate the students to the extent Raychelle
does, so she provides a great environment to learn.
Great class!
I admire her for being a great teacher she is. I would definitely recommend other students to take any course under
her.
I have learned so much from this course. She is the best PRVAB professor I ever had.
I learned a lot about assessing student work and how to apply it to sign language teaching. I learned many things that
I did not know before and feel that it will greatly benefit me when teaching.
I love to work with her and looking forward to work with her in one of her courses in the near future. Please raise her
pay!
I was a little disappointed in the unit plan sequence- I wish we had the entire two weeks to work on it, instead of just
during the last week. Overall, the class was wonderful and I learned so much.
I'm so fortunate to have Dr. Harris as my professor! I love how she cares that her students are learning and how she
provides ongoing feedback. I have grown tremdondously through her courses!
N/A
Needs to show/add a workshop/class relating to mental health, disabilities in many areas. Not effective in group
projects.
That course is helpful for me
The best course ever I had in my entire life, academically. I walk home with a rich knowledge of Assessment. I feel I
am going to be the best teacher from now on. I got a B plus grade which it was disturbingly wrong. The group ripped
my grade from A to B.
The course helps me improving knowledge of assessing students and course with rubrics! Professor did great job!
Unit plan project was tough. Especially with the instructions on what we needed to do, it was somewhat vague in some
certain areas. It would be great if there was a clear checklist on what we needed to do since the rubric was not
straightforward clear.

Wish the Unit Plan were understandable to be able to grading. But overall was great.
cutlural sensitive training for students was not available. student who is not culturally sensitive inferrenced my learning
experince in the classroom.
instructor grading on ASL usage was a bit too much for some students...a bit too prescriptive in perspective as
community ASL differs from Academic ASL and students don't know what academic ASL was and has been graded
for not utilizing academic ASL
