Gene Expression

Biochemistry by Georgina Cornwall is not good at all, she reads all the time and she doesn't even know what to talk about.

She didn't talk about the template strand. the prof fumbled with the coding strand and im actually confused if the coding strand, or the tremplate strand matches the sequence of the mRNA. She definitely seems disorganized. It didn't flow at all.

SHE IS NOT CONFIDENT IN TEACHING AND RUINS THE MOOD OF LEARNING

i liked the details and visualization. should have been there more mobility in the slides tho.

Need to explain better as it is very complicated and confuses us even more than we were before

It is a good introduction for the following classes. It's not confusing, but more information could be added

I suppose it depends on your learning style. That is, most of the medical students I've spoken to, appreciate concise and coherent lectures - Unfortunately, in my personal opinion, this micro-lecture lacked the fundamental high concentration of information that most of us are looking for - to take notes, and practice the spaced repetition model. Instead, her speaking pace, and vocal expression are slightly too fast and the way in which she attempts to outline a basic idea isn't linear in nature which leads the viewer wanting to know more, while simultaneously trying to ignore the off-topic rants. Note: Clearly, she's qualified to teach - however, valid of a point that may be, doesn't mean she has the practical communication skills to do so. Therefore, this is not a question of intelligence, rather - communication and linguistic expression. There will certainly people who prefer this method, I however, can not recommend.

I had many doubts but with the lection, I improved much better

The lectures seem to cover all the necessary contents, but it’s often difficult to understand the topic until I go over the video again for several times.

This lecture clearly points out the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells in protein synthesis. It would be helpful for those who wish to briefly know how proteins are formed in each type of cell.

the explanation is complicated it could be simplified more better

Each RNA should be shown in the picture like above

This is one of the few videos in this video series where the video cuts before the lecturer is done talking or before she's done with the material for the section. For example, in this one she only discusses E site and video cuts... what about the other 2 sites on the ribosome?

The instructor reading off the podium is not appreciated. It doesn't entice the viewer to keep watching.

Didn't explain clearly and concisely which each type of RNA was as well as providing its clear function. Additionally, it is best to provide the correct definition thus, followed by an analogy. Starting with an analogy of how the different RNA types can make the lesson hard to follow as well as, causing confusion in the actual definition of the term. This particular video was hard to gather information from.

she was understandable! i liked her! i am so prepared for the next test we will be doing

The professor did not do a good job explaining concepts clearly, went too fast, covered little material

Easy to understand...high yield information....great graphics,well done!

I feel that the delivery is good but the content is not detailed enough, e.g. when talking about splicing, I think it would have helped to talk about what ‘snurps’ are involved and how this relates to initiation.

it is really good ,some hesitation at the beginning but the diagram is very informative ,whopple hypothesis needs more explanation.

excellent she is a very good teacher, the grafhics are didactical she explains in a very simple way, i like it

Thank you Dr. Cornwall, I really think genetics is quite a difficult concept so you are doing your very best, i must admit its very confusing at times i will need go over the concepts again.

I am having my genetics exam soon and this course was extremely helpful to better understand the information. Thank you !

Dr. Cornwall hesitates a lot, and seems unprepared and unsure. Make people feel like she is reading the material and even not familiar with the reading materials. It is really confusing.

Dr Georgina is amazing. Thank you for making all these difficult concepts easier for us.

Don't replace her. Good OVERVIEW/REVIEW of the material at hand. Her pace is good. Her voice and expression and everything else is dynamic and engaging.

Please replace her. Explanation is very poor, she hesitate a lot, and seems unprepared and unsure. It is confusing and in comparison to a lot of lecturers you have here, the standard is incredibly low!
