Course is old and outdated, should be much shorter (think KISS = Keep It Simple Stupid) and quiz has answers that don’t match the information provided.You will easily pass and earn your certificate, but read the other reviews about how poor the quiz is; which is obviously NOT what the course developers have done and they DON’T listen to the feedback provided here

The information provided is mostly basic public safety information regarding hazardous weather conditions. It suggests some good ideas, like the ACES concept used by emergency management services. However, some of the ideas and concepts are not very pertinent of actually identifying the types of weather and ways to describe those conditions in clear and communicative ways. Also, based on my current experience, the certificate generation system is broken and flawed, because mine is generated as blank is the area where my name should be.

Good enough to deliver the required information, but there is no indication of the correct answers in the quiz, which is a major flaw. I suspect this is an oversight, rather than by design.
JeremyGruner
2020-05-21 20:54:24
Basic, useful information is covered on the course. That's great! But the quiz was unspecific and based largely on trick questions, and then doesn't show you the correct answer. This is frustrating and unhelpful. I missed one specific part of one question several times, and I still have no idea what the answer was supposed to be, even though I absolutely understand the information the question was covering.

mreeves54
2020-03-11 19:28:46
The content was well-organized and informative, but the quiz used the "trick questions" methodology which really does not test the true retention of information you learned in the course. At best, there should be a results page showing the correct answer on the questions missed. One cannot know which was correct without positive reinforcement.

The lesson itself had a lot of good info. The quiz was very irritating. Having to go back to the lesson in the hopes that you could gain whatever info you missed so you could give the correct answer was time consuming and still got the wrong answers no matter how many times you changed the answer! Has anyone gotten 100%?

Good overall course content. It would be beneficial to be able to see the correct answers for the quiz after the quiz was completed. An important learning opportunity was missed by not letting the person taking the course see this information.
KI5GCQ
2019-08-25 13:10:41
Good lesson except I should have scored higher. If a question asks which answer is correct (click all that apply) but none apply (and even the answers say so) then you should not count a question as "incomplete" for not clicking a choice. That's bad design.
K9WBZ
2019-08-11 08:03:16
Perhaps the test should not prompt you that you have unanswered questions if the test is setup so the correct answer is to not check any of the boxes.

This lesson was very interesting to learn about because it informed me that anyone can become a SKYWARN spotter with the proper training, however the only thing i found frustrating was that in the lesson it talks about all the hazardous weather conditions can be reported by SKYWARN spotters however, on the test there was a question regarding which is NOT a condition that can be reported and they were all conditions that could be reported so i left it blank but i still got it wrong. i just wanted to know what the correct answer was.

2018-09-09 16:45:09
Some of the quiz questions need revision, especially the one about which of the following weather events is not a reportable event, then each of the answer selections were items that appeared on the huge list in the body of the lesson; there isn't a selection that is not among the reportable weather events (hail, thunderstorm, flood, lightening, snowfall amount, tornado). My husband selected lightening and it was scored as incorrect; I tried leaving it blank since we know that they're all reportable events, but I received an error warning when trying to submit my answers re: having left a question unanswered, so I went back to this question and answered it "thunderstorm", which was also incorrect....There are other questions/answer selections similarly needing correction.

A little unhappy, haven't scored a 72 since early grade school.While you list an impressive array of professional contributors, as a corporate trainer for 30 years I would recommend more graphics and repetition. Videos are cute but recommend bullet points with the voice-over. Drill it home for retention. Last page should list correct answers before the quiz. Still unclear about the "spotter number"? Several others are dubious. I've taken the Skywarn through CERT 3 times.I do appreciate all you do..KD0UOO

I really enjoyed taking this lesson. I used to be a skywarn spotter several years ago and wanted to take the course again through the online webinar that was offered by my local weather office. However, due to severe weather events it had to be cancelled, and I opted to take it through the MetEd course. Anyone who would like to become a spotter needs to take this course. It is well worth it.

If your lesson is intended to educate the student, then the incorrect answers SHOULD be provided, otherwise the student (me) does not know what they misinterpreted in the lesson. I thought a couple of the questions to be wierd, but without feedback of what was wrong I have no way of knowing if it's me or a misprint in the quiz.

I wish there had been better examples of required information when reporting weather. One question in the quiz did not match the information given - storm damage report (number of broken limbs, wires down) is not the same as TYPE of hazardous weather. While the TYPE of hazardous weather (in this case high winds) is required, the storm damages are appreciated but not essential, according to NWS.

I have been through Spotter training before in person. This was very well done, but there is some disconnect between the information covered and the answers expected in the quiz--nothing major, but there are some things that are less than completely on point.

Remember if you ask yourself should I or shouldnt I, the answer is you shouldnt .Be safe always... Highly recommend these modules ...

The lesson was pretty decent and involved more real life situations than some other similar training I have taken. I do feel that a few of the quiz questions were perhaps not completely made clear throughout the lesson but I also believe that it made me have to really know answers as opposed to just using common sense

I want to be a SKYWARN spotter to warn and predict convective thunderstorms that form quickly along the North Shore of Long Island, NY. These thunderstorms contain high winds, heavy rain, thunder and lightning and move very quickly I am currently a CoCoRahs observer and have been one for about 18 months..

Even after retaking the course, there were two questions that I could not get correct after multiple attempts. It may be due to my not understanding the question, or due to the fact that the exact wording of some of the answers may be different from the material presented in the lesson.

4 stars was because this is important information for the spotter presented in a quick and useful manner. I would suggest taking this course after a course provided locally. At least in Oklahoma the local course is more thorough and provides regional guidance as well.

When it comes to learning they need to tell you what you're going to learn tell you what it is you've learned and then tell you what they told you. This way everything is Crystal Clear what you're supposed to learn. After taking this quiz and looking over the questions that I missed, there is still some confusion as to why one or the other was the best answer. I can go back and review the lesson but I feel like if improvements were made there could be no confusion to the answers.

Informative course. Glad I took it. A good use of my time. Final test doesn't always agree with what I've read on other Skywarn informational pages. (Some pages suggest there IS a minimum age to be a Skywarn observer, that you SHOULD report lightning IF there are injuries.) Is ID number part of my name OR contact info? I don't know. As long as I give the number, does it matter how it is classified? Would like to see test improved.

Portions of the lesson were vague, yet questions on the quiz were specific. Example: Snow was a reportable item, but when and what to report were never specified. The quiz asked for a specific element related to snow. In the spotter conveyance, the spotters ID was to be matched, but it became a guess, because the possible answers did not state spotter ID, so was the answer "name" or "contact" ?

This course is a great pre-study opportunity for anyone.

I honestly found some of the quiz questions confusing. Just as an example:Which of the following is NOT a weather event that can be reported by a SKYWARN spotter?Choose all that apply.Snowfall totalsLightningThunderstormHailTornadoFloodingI tried checking none, but it wouldn't let me. Beyond that, I'm just guessing and there's no place to find the right answer. I tried all of them but was never able to get the answer right. So now I'm questioning what you taught me, and have no way to clarify.

I have joined the A.R.E.S. in my home county. We also, volunteer as spotters. This is a great step in enhancing your knowledge of what to look for and how and where to report this information to better serve your community. I recommend these courses of interest here at your level and the NWS. Community preparedness is everyones responsibility for response to disasters at home.

2-3 of the questions are worded in a confusing manner. For instance, when the question asks "Which of the following are NOT...", there should be an answer option that says something like "All answers ARE...". Otherwise, leaving the answer to the question blank actually is the correct answer. This is a very unusual artifact of a multiple-choice quiz...
N7GPP
2017-09-18 12:53:18
With a question that required no answers to be checked to be correct, it is not well engineered that the "did you finish all the questions" checker flagged that right answer as being incomplete.

As an educator, I would encourage anyone who is old enough to participate to learn how to become a weather spotter. I think the service it provides is invaluable. We let kiddos take a course for Hunter's Safety, which could save their life or the life of another, so why not teach our youth to become spotters which could potentially save their life, their families or even hundreds of others? This is a great program.

I should have 100% on the quiz, however the question in the quiz regarding to matching the text to the spotters communication is either not accurate or extremely confusing. I have taken this test multiple (emphasis on multiple) times with no success to answering this particular question right.

There were a couple of things that were confusing to me. 1, I thought giving your spotter number was required, since in all examples the reporter gave her number. And I didn't see any weather that would not qualify as something to report. I think some refinement, to make these issues clearer would have helped.

Good overall introduction to the Skywarn program with important emphasis on personal safety- We are NOT 'Tornado Chasers'!
Some media updating to more use of video will likely occur in the future.
I found a few of the quiz questions to be based on points which were not (to me) emphasized strongly... but maybe I didn't pay close enough attention. IF you do you will likely pass- maybe score better than I did- but will surely be educated in this important area.

I just feel some of the topics could be explained beter, also with that being said I also feel the videos can be a little more informative.

I would add in a couple of things, how to accurately determine the size of hail, the amounts by depth, and how to measure rainfall. Just something I am suggesting. I have done it before myself, but others may not know how accurately to do this.

Nifty little module packed with information that wasn't terribly dumbed down or patronizing.

Write down your quiz answers at the end! You'll receive indication of which ones you answered incorrectly, but it doesn't indicate what you answered or what the correct answers were - not helpful if your goal is to really learn this stuff.

On the question about the important components of spotter's severe weather observation report, you'll need to drag and drop the answers from the right column into the correct order on the center column. When I took the quiz, there were no instructions other than to "match" them.

I recommend this training to other spotters that may have only taken the local spotter talks given by the NWS. It goes into more coverage of the basics of spotting, and does it in a not-so-technical way, as it would be during spotter talks.

Some of the questions are very vague. When answering some of these questions, what are suppose to be right are marked wrong. Still made a 91% first time. So this shouldn't be an overall issue.

The format was good in that there was a mix of graphic images, videos, and text. The frequent quizzes help the learner but focusing on important concepts, though not all concepts on the final quiz had been covered by the preliminary quizzes.

This lesson was helpful because it uses situations you could be placed in as a storm spotter to help you learn the correct actions to take. I found it very helpful.

In my opinion,it is of great use for those who want to become a skywarn spotter.however,it can not meet the need of meteorological teachers and students and just let us know the program.

The lesson was well designed and informative, I had some preconceived notions about certain scenarios that the lesson did well to correct me on.
I was quite annoyed by lack of ability to access the correct answers for the questions that I answered incorrectly on the quiz. I would have liked to have seen where I went wrong, but it didn't appear that that was possible. That really should be a feature, and if it already is, it should be far more obvious.
