| Bella's excellent performance on the quizzes is evidence of excellent note taking and studying skills. More importantly, her work on the assignments has been creative and very well done. Not only have her projects been interesting, but also well written and thoroughly evaluated. Keep up the great work! |
Senior Project- Becky Thomas: Pass
| Bella's project is off to a good start. She has a question, she has detailed plans about how to investigate the question, she's already submitted the necessary materials to the IRB, she's found the software packages she needs and is currently working on making sure they integrate properly. She's done well with finding background reading on topics she needs to learn in order to carry out the project, such as research methods in psychology/user interface design. She's working consistently and efficiently, and I look forward to finding out what she learns. |
European Jewish Literature- Brent: B
| Bella, good presentation of major themes in Sholem Aleichem in your first paper; and I like the way you used the Zhitlovsky essay. Does Tevye's decision to support Tseytl suggest that despite his endless quoting of scripture, there is another tacit value system that is in fact more basic. If so, what is that value system and what does it tell us of how it might be possible to adapt yet retain one's identity. Must Tevye inevitably come into conflict with himself? Will it end happily or tragically-like Tseytl or like Hodel? Is this an easy problem or a very difficult one? It would be good if you could press yourself further in your analysis. But your definitely on the right track. |
Justus and Flamenco grades haven't been posted yet, but I assume A's.
