I saw improvements from the professor that also taught 101B. Lecture summaries did its job on keeping me on schedule with the lectures and looking at the notes afterwards. However, I still think the homework assignments should have harder deadlines because it is hard to make them a priority amongst all other class work (when due at the end of the quarter). More in class practice problems would help versus strict theory and conceptual explanations of the course content. It is also expected that discussion would be attended as it is hosted by the professors and not TAs. Also, I found it very unfortunate that the one lecture I missed because I was very sick was the lecture where extra credit was given out to those in attendance.

Heat transfer is hard, trying to follow the lectures when you have to look out for mistakes in lines and lines of derivations makes it more difficult. I personally was always behind in this class because I had a heavy quarter, and because this class was held at 8am. The homework assignments should have harder deadlines because it is hard to make them a priority amongst all other class work (when due at the end of the quarter). I did not find lectures engaging since they were so math heavy, and I only enjoyed the small conversation of the real-world applications of the concepts. From day 1 of this class, I found Peterson to be an interesting guy. Being so statistically focused and trying to organize partnered exams was definitely a distraction. The lecture summary sheets were pretty organized and helpful, I think they could have been more complete as the homeworks did require other equations that were not included on them at times. A curve may save my grade in this class, but I will admit that I am probably not going to remember anything other than the generic topic headlines after this class.
