It was important for us to try to
solicit student feedback (See Figure 48). |

change the course so it would fit
student expectations. Finally they told us that doing
15 new lessons was too many. We did 15 weeks. We did a new lesson every
week that we had never done before. The
evaluator suggested we do a few pilot lessons first.
In conclusion those are the results of what the evaluator found. If you
are interested you can get the report
from Dr. Spiegel. |

Here is what I found (see Figure 49).
First of all the computers we used do
not really do multi-tasking. If you have
a set of instructions on the screen and
now I need to use computer-based real
time labs. You have to open up
"Science Workshop" but it comes up
on top of the instructions of what you
are suppose to do. Now you have got the
setup that you are going to measure say
the coffee filter. Oh you forgot what
you are supposed to do now, so you have
to click on this screen here and this
image goes away and a new one comes out. |
