28.   Additional Comments
Branden was a really helpful TA :)
Course feels like 2 200 level courses jammed into 1 semester, I feel like I learned a lot of things, but not very deeply which is both good and bad.
I am not a fan of the "reverse teaching" method but it still worked. Thank you!

29.   What was the format of this class? online synchronous (class scheduled for particular days and times) online asynchronous (class conducted online - no scheduled class meeting)

Mean N-Size Std Dev   Online Synchronous ()  Online Asynchronous ()  In Person ()  Hybrid: In Person and Online Synchronous ()  Hybrid: In Person and Online Asynchronous ()  Hybrid: Online Synchronous and Asynchronous ()  Other () 
0.0 15 0.0   14(93%) 0(0%) 0(0%) 0(0%) 0(0%) 0(0%) 1(7%)
