  1. Lance,

    I enjoyed your presentation and I liked how clean your slides were. You also cited the page and information during it which I found helpful for future presentations we make.

    I found you stuck to the topics and highlighted them well with great examples. I only had one topic for this presentation so I wasn’t sure how others joined the two topics, your presentation really helped me get an understanding of what to do on future topics!

    I noticed your bio at the bottom – Hays has one of the top disc golf courses in Kansas. If you ever take a road trip out west you’ll have to check it out! The course is right by the college here. I also enjoy hiking – I am planning to do the manitou incline in June! We have two kiddos with summer birthdays so instead of parties we plan yearly trips to a different zoo every summer for them (we always choose a new one every year!). This year we are doing the Cheyenee Mountain Zoo – which is why I plan to do the Manitou climb while we are there. We have a camper so we enjoy traveling as well.

  2. What’s up! Lance, great presentation I like how you made it clear for us to understand what you’re teaching. Everything was clean and neat, well done!

  3. Lance,
    great job going into detail on each topic and also providing topics. I liked how you would refer to the page numbers so that if we needed to we could go back and read more in the text.

  4. Lance,
    Great job on the presentation! Very easy to understand and follow. As others have stated you did a great job citing where you found the information. I like the section on how to decide on a method. It was very well broken down.
