Thank you for all your feedback! I was super excited about this topic so I tried to squeeze in too much content. If this was a longer lecture, I will definitely provide more explanation to some of the terminologies and allow time for listeners to ask questions.

  1. Thanks Yiwen! This might be considered curricular -- but it's general enough, and not the math curriculum, so that is fine!

    great slides, they weren't too text heavy and had clear diagrams. I liked the learning map showed at the beginning and end that showed what was covered. The explanations were good as well, although I might have needed some background knowledge on the topic!

    Nice quality of content. You have great content with detailed explanations about the subject. However, it is sometimes hard for newbies to get the concept immediately and use them. You have already done a good job explaining the scientific terminologies so that we could understand, but maybe include simpler contents(maybe cutting down some words) / more videos from social media.

    If you have more time, I think you could do more explanation about some terminologies. Thank you for your presentation.

    Thank you for your comment. I realized that the material is too detailed for a intro class to metabolism. Will definitely cut down some context and do more explanation next time.
