REGARDING YOUR OWN PERFORMANCE
1. What were the three aspects of the assignments I've submitted that I am most proud of?
The three aspects I am most proud of are both of my online labs and the first compendium review. All three of these helped me learn more and I enjoyed doing them.
2. What two aspects of my submitted assignments do I believe could have used some improvement?
The second compendium review could have used a little more effort maybe and the first quiz I took I could have and should have done better on.
3. What do I believe my overall grade should be for this unit?
I think I should get an A or so, I put a lot of effort into this unit and I hope it shows through my work.
4. How could I perform better in the next unit?
Again I could not procrastinate and take better notes as I am reading the chapters for my reviews and quizzes.
REGARDING THE UNIT (adapted from Stephen Brookfield, University of St. Thomas "Critical Incident Questionnaire")
At what moment during this unit did you feel most engaged with the course?
During the cardiovascular readings I was more engaged because my step-father has heart issues so I was familiar with some of the information but this helped me understand all that he is going through much better.
At what moment unit did you feel most distanced from the course?
I felt more distanced in the nutrional and the AIDS portion because I felt like I am already familiar with the topics.
What action that anyone (teacher or student) took during this unit that find most affirming and helpful?
With the big lab project my mom helped me to understand blood pressures better.
What action that anyone (teacher or student) took during this unit did you find most puzzling or confusing?
No action really comes to mind.
What about this unit surprised you the most? (This could be something about your own reactions
to the course, something that someone did, or anything else that occurs to you.)
For the big lab project I did this at my sisters and her husband is a big built guy so when taking blood pressures I took my dad's and my brother in laws and surprsingly they were normal. Now I say surprsingly because we had a b-b-q the night before with alcohol consumption and my brother in law actually has high blood pressure usually. :) So that was definately surprising results! HA!

Thank you for you kind words regarding my blog. I did work very hard. I like to draw and sometimes I have to draw things out to understand them. Good job on your blog.
Laramie, this unit is great...just be sure you see all the assignments...I didn't see your ethical issue essay. Everything else is in basically great shape...just a few minor things to fix and you would have a perfect unit! I'm glad everyone's blood pressure was pretty good after eating barbecue!!
LAB PROJECT: This is great...you present the activities and hypotheses, show your data beautifully—all those graphs open into a large screen and do a good job coming back to analyze what it all means...Your data come as close as I've seen to what would be expected with diastolic staying about the same, but systolic rising, along with pulse and respiration, depending on how strenuous the activity is...nice ujob!
ETHICS ESSAY: I didn't see this essay on food and eating. It's worth 10 points and you can still do it—just send me an e-mail so I can grade it when it's done. Also, you've got another 5 points available by doing the group discussion on this topic on the social network.
COMPENDIUMS: These look great...nice table of contents at start and I like you how you explain everything in your own words for each topic. For the nutrition compendium, you include a lot on digestion, but not much on glucose regulation and nutrition in the diet....that would be my only suggestion. Also, you should cite the source of your figures and information, even if it is all the text or publisher website or course website. You could just do that at the end, but better would be for each figure or image.
ONLINE LABS: These look great...you do a nice job of analyzing your own diet and great job on the b.p. Lab.
