Mr. Fisher... or should I say MR PHYSICS!-- has revolutionized the way i think of science. Instead of being subjected to countless hours of homework, lectures and boredom, the ITS system has me doing my work on time and correctly. Even in the short time I've been in class I've learned a great deal. ITS is an effective and efficient method of teaching and I'm very pleased with my choice to take the course.
The most effective element of the program for me has been the LVD and MAC tutorials. They lay out the concepts in a simple way, allowing for the student to grasp the subject and then work their way towards more advanced concepts.
Thank you Mr. Fisher! ;D

I also think that ITS is a wonderful way to learn. It makes students responsible for their learning and that has really helped me. My homework is more complete than most of my other classes and I spend more time doing it (paying more attenion to what I am doing), so everything sinks in better. Being able to choose when to do contracts has also been beneficial.

Ch. 4 went really fast, I like the longer contracts(more time for information to sink in!) Also having more student time was really nice.

ITS physics is quite nifty although, I sometimes become lost and/or confused I like how it all come together on test days or on find and fix days. Josh M.

ITS is great, the only thing that 'killed' me were vectors... Too little time =) But overall, ITS great, and helps me with my procrastination problem... Riiiiight....

i love this class, the way it is layed out makes it so much easier. the only thing i have to say is that he needs to check test days, because this friday I have two test, a project, and another half of a test to complete so I am feeling so overwelmed. Oh well, life as an IB student.

ITS is a great way of teaching/learning. The students can learn at their own pace. My problem, though, is having to avoid procrastination.

At the beginning of the year I thought that I wasn't going to learn much from ITS. I'm more of a traditional learner but the ITS seems to work very well. This spin on learning gives a fresh aproach to physics, and I definately don't become bored as often as I do in other classes, especially with Mr. Fisher.

After the last chapter I really appreciate the ITS system. The structured learning environment didn't work with me in Physics and ITS really lets you be your own person when it comes to Physics. Everyone can learn at their own pace and you dont have to conform to one exact way. ITS makes learning a lot easier.

I also like Its physics, except for the fact that I keep on misplacing my work.

The helpsheet on one of the white boards was very helpful. I suggest copying it and using it because it helps even more than reading the chapter.

I think that Mr.Fisher should have more study guides, like the one he gave us for the momentum unit. I think it might help slower people. ;D

What happened to Do Nows. Those really helped. I miss them.
