Questions, Due January 28

How long have you spent on the homework assignments? Did lecture and the reading prepare you for them?
I probably have to spend as much as 2 hours per assignment and even then it's not necessarily done. That's just how proofs are for me, they don't come easily. I feel like the lecture and reading are basically the same. I generally don't get much more from the lecture besides what I already got from the reading.

What has contributed most to your learning in this class thus far?
The interaction with others (outside of class) - working with peers on homework or one-on-one attention from Dr. Jenkins.

What do you think would help you learn more effectively or make the class better for you?
I think I need to continually review past chapters and their theorems to help me remember which ones to use. I also think it would be valuable for Dr. Jenkins to go over a few homework problems at the beginning of class. If time is a concern, we can skip some proofs, as we already read them in the book, and I don't think all proofs need to be rehashed in class.
