1. What were the three aspects of the assignments I've submitted that I am most proud of?
I am proud of my cell model in total. I am not very creative in an artistic and I think it turned out fairly well. The other aspects of my cell regarding mitosis and what not were not bad either, again, because I am not very good at that type of work
2. What two aspects of my submitted assignments do I believe could have used some improvement?
I did the best I could with my work but I suppose with better time management I could have improved everything.
3. What do I believe my overall grade should be for this unit?
An A because I am anal-retentive and I can only handle 1 B a semester and since I am taking a math class (which I suck at) it should be there and not here.
4. How could I perform better in the next unit?
BETTER TIME MANAGEMENT!!!!
- At what moment during this unit did you feel most engaged with the course?
Making my cell helped a lot, but it is hard to be disengaged from a course completing a compendium review.
- At what moment unit did you feel most distanced from the course?
Trying to do all my other homework.
- What action that anyone (teacher or student) took during this unit that find most affirming and helpful?
All my e-mails and questions were answered and I felt comfortable that the behavior would continue.
- What action that anyone (teacher or student) took during this unit did you find most puzzling or confusing?
N/A
- 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.)

SELF/UNIT EVAL.
Thank you for this detailed and self-reflective review…and your incredible urge to performance. Is that true that you’re considering changing majors—yeah! What more could we ask for—inspiration—biology is incredible1
COMPENDIUM REVIEW 1: CELLS
Both compendium reviews are outstanding. I can’t believe the images you found…and every one of them cited…I’ll have to steal some. Well –organized, complete, easily readable. Really a model…keep it up… What you said in your self/unit eval was true and I’m glad you’re considering a science direction because you clearly have a talent for it.
COMPENDIUM REVIEW 2: GENETICS
See above.
MICROSCOPE LAB
Perfect lab write-up. Nice images in the scope, good background and you define all the pieces.
DRAGON GENETICS
This is also perfect. Great images and nice background with all the definitions done.
BUILD A CELL
This is an outstanding model. And so beautiful…especially the beaded DNA…do you make jewelry? Could be an inspiration for a new line. But more than anything, you can really get a feel for protein synthesis, you do a great job labeling everything and a good feel for what a cell might be like…all those little pieces that aren’t really so different since they’re all made of the same molecules of life. Nice job!
ETHICAL ISSUE ESSAY: GENETIC ENGINEERING
Your essay is very well-written, shows sophisticated understanding and does a nice job of presenting different viewpoints and seeing their pros and cons without becoming polarized—way to go.
Niki,
Please don’t forget to do your peer color group feedback on their ethical issues essays—you’ll probably find it interesting to see some other blogs also. And get started on Unit II if you haven’t already. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this feedback or your grades which can be seen on the YC Blackboard site.
Really exceptional job…a perfect unit…not easy to do, especially on this unit which is so much work. You dedicate yourself to every project form the cell model to your essay to the basics of the notebooks. I know it’s a lot of work..and thanks for doing it so well…Keep it up for the next unit—I think you’ll find it a bit less new information,
LF
