2.   My overall evaluation of this course is...
This course was fun and interesting. It gave me a better understanding of the world. One of the valuable skills I got from this class was learning Chicago Manual Style which is what the profession I’m pursuing is for. The class is not hard and would recommend to my fellow peers.
Awesome! I liked that this course involved a lot of discussion—both in small groups and as a class. I thoroughly enjoyed each section of the course and the nuances of our conversations.
this course has taught me many of Asian Americans that is probably no teach at most university. I really like this course as it taught me about Asian American history.
I thought the Asian American History was an amazing course. The course humble me as I was expecting it to focus on the Asian American accomplishments, which it did, but showed me the history of oppression. Growing up, I wasn't made aware of White Supremacy and the horrible impacts it inflicted to anyone who wasn't White.
This course was certainly surprising to be a part of. I learned more or another side of American History as well as a bit of myself. 9/10 would recommend -1 because of the blended class issues.
awesome!!


3.   If this course was taken to fulfill course requirements for your concentration/major, how did this course enhance your personal and/or professional development in your concentration/major?
It taught me how to look for primary sources and how to cite the sources using Chicago Manual Style.
It helped me to analyze readings at a deeper level and strengthen my writing skills whether it be through organization, grammar, and clarity.
This has developed my way of understanding history of this ethnic and racial group in the United States.
The Asian American History class gave me a new perspective and being able to spot what oppression looks like and what to look out for.
This course has enhanced my concentration because it showed me another side of American history by focusing on Asian stories.

6.   Please comment on the activities or resources that could be added to this course to improve your learning.
I’m not sure what could be added but I believe that it would help if some of the other resources were put in a category of weeks to help students locate them if they are not on the schedule.
I think more hands-on activities could be added such as adding our thoughts and opinions to a white board. I also suggest keeping the ungraded in class quizzes on the readings! It helped to test me on my knowledge and know what I should be taking away from the readings.
N/A
There is so much history that it is almost impossible to fit everything. I wouldn't oppose new content and thought everything was fine
A conversation circle, so that people may see each other and take turns speaking.

17.   Please list your suggestions for improving the course and/or the instructor's teaching style and methods.
I’m not sure what could be change.
I think it would be helpful to ensure to add the class slides prior to class so that students could refer to them and take additional notes on them as needed.
Instead of the small groups, I wish we could all discuss the topic.
Better hold on tech issues, showed improvement throughout the semester.
