         QUESTION 4

         1. You are a department head for the University of Northern Iowa. Your employee, Jay Schmitz, recently completed teaching an Organizational Management class via zoom and in-person hybrid learning. While we hope to never have to do hybrid again, you need to review him as if hybrid is here to stay. Please write a review citing what areas of the class worked, what needs changed, and what you’d like to see more/less of. Everything is fair game from the lack of activities late in the semester (Instructor Schmitz claims to have stopped them because he didn’t feel they were effective on Zoom…but can he be trusted) to the PollEverywhere classes earlier in the semester. Please be honest. Your effort will your determine your score not the nature of the feedback. Positive and negative is both encouraged as I want to make sure the three hours future students spend in this class gets better each year!
