A few years ago I learned about Perusall from Juliana Lima and since then I have found it very useful. For information about how I use it, see this page.

Evaluations

You can find all the student feedback I have received from the courses I have taught at Ashoka in this Google Drive folder except for the Spring 2024 semester because nobody filled out the feedback forms that semester. You can find all the student feedback from the courses I taught as a grad student at UCSD in this Google Drive folder.
