Student Evaluations of their year with Calculus from 2001-2002
I feel I have learned a lot this year, and am prepared for college.  yeah Calculus!!!!!!!!!!!! This course definitely prepares you for the AP test and future courses in college without boring you.
This course helped me to learn calculus easily and sufficiently. This got me ready for college courses and gave me a great understanding of calculus
The positive aspect of the course is that it was taught differently than any other math class I've ever had.  Not only was it interesting, but it was easier because of the way it was taught.  I didn't like the amount of homework or the derivative test, but it actually helped me a lot
it was cool
There really were no negative aspects of the course. The course itself was very rewarding and challenging, and the teacher was outstanding in every way. This class was my most challenging class this year. I learned a lot about math this year, I think, more than most years put together.
  Positive-it challenged my mind and I learned to visualize instead of writing everything down
This class definitely helped prepare me for the AP AND it changed my outlook on math in general. The most positive aspect of the course was the way in which Mr. Rahn presented the lessons; he strongly emphasized the importance of actually thinking about what we were doing rather than just doing what we're told, and that made a huge difference. I learned a lot of new math this year and felt I was well prepared for the AP test. Can I bring you to college too??
The positive aspects of the course, along with the challenge it presented to me as a student, certainly outweigh anything bad.  
This course is excellent for any aspiring math student who can put a lot of his free time into Calculus. I feel very well prepared to take a course in Calculus in college. Mr. Rahn might have over prepared us for the AP exam, but that is better than being under prepared.
This Calculus I AP course is a very rigorous course, however, Mr. Rahn is the perfect teacher to keep the students working hard all the way through AP's. Overall, the year flew by, and very easy to understand the way Mr. Rahn taught. The only negative aspect, I believe, was there weren't any napkins during the apple and orange slices lab.
