John Colton's blog

Every class period I make the Physics 105 students fill out a pre-class quiz on the computer before coming to class. In addition to asking them questions about the reading assignment, I have a spot for open ended comments: "Any other comments?" Today, the last day of class, I was pleasantly surprised to see the majority of the comments, from students who had left comments, were unsolicited compliments about how the semester had gone in our class. Here they are, recorded now for posterity.

Great class, learned alot! Thanks Dr. Colton!

Dr. Colton thank you for being my best physics teacher ever. You are a great professor and I owe you everything that I know about physics. I feel you really care for the students and their success and you are awesome at explaining difficult concepts. Keep up the good work!

I really had a very hard time in this class and I believe I am not going to get the grade I was at least hoping for, but oddly enough, I feel I have a much better understanding of physics now. Thank you.

I'm excited for the final. :)

Thanks for the great semester, difficult class but has been rewarding! Thanks!

This class wasn't half as crappy as I thought it was going to be, thanks for not being a super anal teacher that treats his students like dirty gum that's stuck on the bottom of your shoe.

I liked your class. Thanks for everything this semester!

Thanks for everything that you have done in this course! I honestly felt that this class was the most organized class that I have been in at BYU. The organization has helped me learn and love physics, so thank you!
