COMMENTS:

Thank you Dr. Weinstei for making physics part of my life!!! I loved your lectures. The best part was voluntering and your little experiments. It helps a lot to visualize physics.

Outstanding professor, kept class interesting and light while teaching hard subject
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Very interesting class. Professor Weinstein does an excellent job on making sure topics are understood and gone over thoroughly using experiments, videos, and homework. He is very fair in his testing. He wants you to make an A and will give you the opportunity to do so. His lectures are informative and fun to listen to. Thanks for another great semester...

Very effective teaching style, however, tests are MUCH harder than should be expected for a 100 level introductory course.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
AWESOME INSTRUCTOR...HE LOVES PHYSICS AND TEACHES THE CLASS VERY WELL. HE BRINGS IN DEMONSTRATIONS ALL THE TIME AND THE CLASS LEARNS AND UNDERSTANDS MUCH BETTER.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The demonstration were very helpful in explianing ideas. Some time the wording used in the lecture would be over my head and would confuse me. The homework assiagnments were very helpful my understaning of the material.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I learned a lot in the class. The material was interesting. I loved having a cheat sheet to have as a security blanket.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I enjoyed the class. The class notes being together is the best. It makes it easier to understand the concepts. The first semester you gave specfic reviews for each test and did not this semester. I liked the specfic reviews for the test.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Prof Weinstein was a strong and knowledgable professor. Since the material is difficult it was hard to understand at times, but Prof Weinstein is extremely helpful with his demonstrations and taking questions. Most importantly is he offers for any questions to be asked periodically throughout class. Too much weight on homework; the homework is very challenging and if a firm grasp of the material is not had the homework is almost impossible. More midterms might be better so there isn't so much information on the midterms. For this course, Prof Weinstein was an excellent professor and enhanced my knowledge of physics massively.
