Teaching Feedback

The tool below allows you to quickly read as many or as few of the evaluations that the students in my classes have given. In the interest of fairness, both positive and negative comments will be shown. There's a caveat though — I have classified the comments using the GPT-3 model by OpenAI and it can make mistakes!

All comments are real student comments, anonymized for presentation here.

Note: You might need to wait a few seconds or click twice for the free tier of Azure to kick up enough bits of information for the first two comments to show up. If you see an error, use the IT department trick: reload and try again (preferably, Ctrl+Shift+R to reload with fresh cache for this website).
