Please provide us with any comments about this course:
Respondent 01: This is the first time I have taken a course that analyzes fiction; while I am sure this was an excellent example of such a course, I am not sure I would take another.
Respondent 02: Jim is an outstanding prof. I am already eagerly awaiting the news of his next course. I haven't been as interested and involved for a while. Keep him on staff. Canvas is a superb addition and Jim used it very well and it really added to his lectures.
Respondent 03: This was a brilliant course. I do have a few suggestions: 1. Focus on 1 story for 1 or 2 classes so deeper analysis is possible. 2. More group discussion. 3. Dr. Sexton please let students finish their sentences.
Respondent 04: I enjoyed and learned a lot. The prof – James Sexton was knowledgeable, entertaining and likeable. I hope he will return and I would take another courses from him.
Respondent 05: Loved prof's passion. Presentation skills awesome. I think he really had fun presenting this class.
Respondent 06: Very knowledgeable, funny, good actor. Enjoyed his easy 'goingness.' Good teacher.
Respondent 07: I learned a great deal in this course. The professor on is extremely well read and learned on literature and presents his knowledge and ideas in an enthusiastic, eloquent and clear manner. I would definitely take another course offered by him, hopefully this fall.
Respondent 08: I liked every minute of that course. Great teaching, great knowledge. Thanks very much.
Respondent 09: The course was very interesting, I really enjoyed it. The more literature courses the better. How about one on Southern writers? Thanks.
Respondent 10: The instructor was very generous and willing to entertain new ideas/arguments and points of view. He's very good – don't let him go.

Respondent 11: Very informative and interesting.
Respondent 12: Excellent teacher, appreciated comments from students. Has an amazing amount of knowledge of literature.
Respondent 13: Will miss the course – could have been longer – lots of Alice Munro stories to cover. Look forward to future courses by this instructor. Learned a lot about techniques to analyze literature as well as greater appreciation of Alice Munro.
Respondent 14: Good use of canvas.
Respondent 15: Lots of extra posted on the bulletin board – yay. Knowledgeable, personable instructor.
Respondent 16: James is knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Enjoyable class.
Respondent 17: Enjoyed the course very much. Learned so much about reading short stories – the layers of meaning. The complexity of story, the development of the characters within the limitations of length. Will apply this to future readings of short stories. Had not read much of Alice Munro before this course now fascinated by her short stories and will continue to read more.
Respondent 18: More by this instructor.
Respondent 19: The course got more interesting as it progressed. The accents and preferences to other literature fleshed out Munro's stories in a very interesting way.
Respondent 20: I loved it. Learned a lot. Would love to take future courses from this instructor.
Respondent 21: Very well prepared instructor and interesting discussion. Website 'extras' for each week much appreciated.
Respondent 22: I enjoyed this course and the instructor. However, many of us do not wish to have a seminar type session meeting in groups and talking about a point. Being seniors, many have health issues and it is too stressful to have to public speak, for instance. I hope to see him again. I liked the notes he put online and his computer skills.
Respondent 23: Dr. Sexton produced an excellent program and made it very easy for wide ranging participation by all the class. Clearly a lot of thought went into the instruction & he actually "bled" for us. (An unfortunate first class, but he bravely carried on!)
