Teaching Evaluations

1 the switch over to Twitch was effortless and effective for his style of teaching
2
Schoology- for assignments and updates
Twitch- for class livestreams
Slack- for interactive group discussion
3 Loved that it was a live stream and not a conference call. Thought that was much more helpful to keep me focused.
4 I think both YTLive and Twitch worked well
5 I liked the use of Slack for group work, and the live streams worked well.
6 Frequent communication via email and Schoology. A combination of synchronous class and asynchronous aspects (video-watching, assignments, etc) was especially helpful.

very passionate about the work he does in and out of the classroom! makes amazing connections of the topics to the real world and is overall very engaged in the class and
how each person is doing
Professor Pilarski put so much effort into making this class a success, despite the transition to remote learning. He is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about his
area of expertise and I always enjoy his classes immensely!
Professor Pilarski is extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about different forms of media and technology. He taught class in a fun, interactive way, encouraged student
feedback and discussion, and sincerely loves teaching.
Nick is an amazing professor! Such an intelligent man that brings his big ideas into the classroom. I have so many classes that are black and white, and don't focus on
issues that I find important like feminism, race, and other hot topic issues. Nick was able to successfully tie New Media into all of these topics, and taught me to think
bigger picture, more philosophical. Amazingly talented.
5 He was very enthusiastic to teach us and to help us learn and understand.
