Semester	Improvement needed	Improvement actions
Spring 2013	A. Need to explain a little better how to solve critical flow problems (DA = 4.2)	Review the equation of critical flow
	B. The meaning of dynamic waves (DA = 4.3)	Review the concept of dynamic wave
Fall 2013	A. Need to explain a little better how to solve critical flow problems (DA = 4.8)	Noticeable improvement
	B. The meaning of dynamic waves (DA = 4.7)	Noticeable improvement
Spring 2014	A. Need to explain a little better how to solve critical flow problems (DA = 4.7)	Statistically insignificant deviation
	B. The meaning of dynamic waves (DA = 5.0)	Perfect assessment; significant improvement
Fall 2014	A. Continue to have problems on how to solve a gradually varied subcritical flow problem (DA = 4.3)	Statistically significant deviation
	B. Continue to have problems on how to solve a gradually varied supercritical flow problem (DA = 4.0)	Statistically significant deviation

OVERALL COMMENTS: This class is a senior elective. The number of students is relatively small, due to four offerings per year (Fall, Spring, and Summer, and SDSU Panama). This favors better communication with the students, which may enhance the learning experience. Using the online videos, students are able to review the lecture before and/or after the class. Understanding of the material has tended to increase in the past four semesters of record.
