KN4GTJ 2019-09-02 17:01:39

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.

tegan1117 2019-07-17 16:44:06

very good for young teens who want to be weather spotters loved it!!!!!!!!

weatherspotter 2019-07-15 13:41:23

I agree with the last post. Correct answers need to be available.

kwikman 2019-07-06 17:05:45

Good information but the correct answers for quiz need to be made available. As a teacher I know we learn from our errors but first we need to know what they were!

gman2019 2019-06-02 01:12:24

Great info to keep in mind

MikeInWV 2019-05-29 07:14:34

Having lived in Florida for 38 years, I learned alot esp living near the Space Center, about the weather and how quick it can change.Went thru 3 hurricaines in 2004 ,and helped provide emergency communications thru Ham Radio.My call W4RTL and thru React towers on 462.675 for Brevard County Emergancy Manangement. This lesson is well done.

KC7BYD 2018-12-10 09:58:06

The lesson Helped me review for Skywarn Spotter requirements .

KWishon93 2018-12-10 08:17:24

I had no idea about skywarn spotters. It is fascinating and clever to know that there are people willing to benefit the community by promoting safety around others.

mazurlo 2018-12-09 17:45:06

Very useful certificate.

jexley1971 2018-12-09 12:41:41

It would be nice to know the correct answers to the quiz so you can learn from your mistakes.

KE4KMQ 2018-12-09 10:06:03

This is very important for those who are just starting and a good refresher with up to date information for the Spotter Veteran.

andrew1023882 2018-12-06 09:54:10

I would definitely recommend this. It may seem like some information isn't useful but when you start to spot storms you'll see the difference taking this makes.

The lesson was very informational.

vcbutler 2018-12-02 15:34:21

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.

mlkoenig895 2018-12-02 13:59:24

Great for new weather spotters and a good review for those who have been spotting for awhile.

It was not clear whether or not this is the Basic SKYWARN Spotter class. Many of the answers to the early questions in the lesson would only be known by those who were previously certified.

rachelsmaid 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.

Bonanzabill 2018-09-07 11:42:34

Coley1982 2018-08-24 06:26:08

To be a successful storm reporter these classes are a must.

Skywarncody 2018-08-23 16:03:26

This is good resource for learning

JBurns727 2018-08-23 14:55:02

Not bad but the format is about 10-20 years old I think. I take CE cources all the time and they have come a long way

winfordb 2018-08-23 11:49:20

Excellent course I would recommend this course to all especially those who live in hazardous weather areas.

K3LBP 2018-08-22 20:51:13

I encourage others to take this course, even if only as a review. Always learn something.

KW5EBB 2018-08-22 18:48:47

Easy love it.

sarpawz 2018-08-22 13:31:54

well done, thanks.

ritterm21318 2018-08-22 09:00:19

once you have read the lesson and tried taking the test it will be easier, but i wouldn't recommend going straight to the test like i did the first time i took the test, i got a 43%, so actually read the lesson, otherwise you wont get anywhere

Laredov 2018-08-22 07:13:10

I was thinking that a more in depth study would be required. However, I am not an authority on what constitutes a spotter.

sjacket99 2018-08-21 18:27:39

It was a nice learning more about weather and the different ways to pass on the information. Keep up the good work. 73.

devonimler18 2018-08-21 00:26:24

I loved this course and i can finally be a spotter

johnsr670 2018-08-20 21:40:12

Very good course. I learned a lot and great information

sjdauw 2018-08-20 19:11:26

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

BobsEdge 2018-08-20 18:53:52

A good course for spotter want to bes.

bemace 2018-08-19 13:37:04

This is pretty basic. Important to know but not terribly exciting.

williewater99 2018-08-19 05:22:35

Nice, basic course. One of the quiz questions doesn't contain a correct choice for an answer.

lbnewman 2018-08-18 18:23:38

This format with both written information and video I found very effective in presenting the information.

ghbishop 2018-08-18 14:47:09

Good format for learning. Would like to see more details on cloud formations and examples of how to describe them in a report.

This Lesson was very informative and interesting I have been watching storms since I was in the 4th grade in the 1960s I'm now 63 and have been a serious spotter continuously since 1989 after I got my Amateur Radio License I also spent 10 years as a firefighter EMT.

I felt to quiz was quite discouraging, had to take it several times. Some answers were to vague, required an educated guess. Overall good information though.

Kat306 2018-08-08 13:30:08

Good basic information. The Quiz and questions throughout were not cover in the lessons. Instead they required an educated guess.

ke8jwj 2018-08-08 11:51:25

The course was informative. However, I felt the course didn't quite prepare me for the final quiz. I think some clarity around the types of weather events to be reported would be good.

terryglass 2018-08-07 23:04:08

I thought this was a good lesson. it used a variety of formats.

WH6FVC 2018-08-07 19:56:36

Being a CERT member in Hawai'i this was quite informative, and pretty relative, however I'd like to see different weather situations added.

LDchaser 2018-08-07 18:57:53

Full of Great information.

Dazedfox 2018-08-07 09:41:21

This lesson is a very good way for an individual like myself who is interested in taking a weather spotter course but does not have the time to take a four hour class in person. The information was very useful and gives me confidence at being more prepared in the future.

TimF 2018-08-06 20:39:10

Extremely informational to prevent tragedies at work

Just could use some updating and streamlining.

SkyLenny 2018-08-04 22:27:04

The lesson would have had more impact if the videos contained more real scenario video and less stock generic photos. Even using better dramatic images would be an improvememt

I think this course is excellent.

Baseballfred 2018-07-24 14:32:42

Lesson was interesting and presented good information, particularly regarding safety. Some of the questions on the quiz seemed to fly in the face of the lists of particulars about reporting essentials and what should (vs can) be reported.

abaddoggy 2018-07-24 14:12:11

This is useful to understand the criteria required in spotter reporting.

I was expecting a bit more actual Skywarn related material like identifying cloud types and weather. During the learning session I found the videos were AFTER the questions they were related to. so you are trying to answer a questioned that you have no knowledge of until after.

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.

AllanRWhitman 2018-06-27 12:17:03

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.

This is a good introduction to Skywarn Spotter training for individuals with no prior Skywarn experience, and should provide a solid base upon which to base further training.

Stryker1123 2018-06-04 17:10:47

It was a very educational lesson and was thorough..Very easy to understand

StormSafe 2018-06-03 21:22:07

I would definitely recommend this website and lesson to my peers.

RobSmith1 2018-06-03 15:49:36

Great class!!

KevinOK 2018-06-01 14:38:47

A complete review of the quiz results should have provided not only the correct answers but also a short explanation as to the reason for each.

kb4lod 2018-06-01 09:39:11

Very good.

sloss2003 2018-06-01 09:34:43

I was stupid on the quiz.

specialks02 2018-05-31 19:17:11

It a lot of information but the quiz can be a little confusing but overall easy!

toddl6843 2018-05-30 19:10:21

I have been slowly getting into Storm Spotting for the last 2 years and still this lesson taught me more than i expected.

bobstalcup@comcast.net 2018-05-30 15:10:11

It would be useful if we could be redirected to the text if the missed questions for review.

Having a question marked wrong without learning the answer teaches you nothing.

i would add a bit more to the videos, to give them more of a realistic feel.

W9AUA 2018-05-27 13:05:09

Have taken classroom weather spotter courses on several occasions

TMBecena0620 2018-05-27 10:24:00

Informative, but I believe it would be a little more helpful if there was more of an interactive component.

thundersnow 2018-05-27 10:01:52

Excellent course. I have taken the local Spotter training give in my area and this course helped me to understand better and take notes. Recommend.

jbush 2018-05-27 07:19:04

To me this material is interesting but this 'program' takes any real learning benefit out of it. I understand that this is a cheap alternative but nothing is better than a good personal interaction with a live person who is equally excited about this or any other topic.

jcbousum 2018-05-25 17:34:52

infomative.

mccweather 2018-05-25 01:17:01

Clear and straight-forward lesson. Designed to help you succeed.

BluRie 2018-05-23 18:54:24

Showing the correct answers to the quiz after taken would be benefical to learning. Knowing what was wrong will allow the user to know what to look into

Robfwa 2018-05-23 12:09:28

The comment I made with question

Remiel 2018-05-23 11:49:51

Questions on the quiz were somewhat ambiguous. I did not feel that the material presented was adequately represented by the exam questions.

vc1921 2018-05-23 08:11:15

great lesson gives you alot of info

Bociba 2018-05-22 20:09:13

Content is fine, however I would like to emphasize that agencies tend to monitor telephone contact, official emails/texting, etc. over twitter accounts.

pepper7185 2018-05-22 17:31:33

Even for the basics, you can still learn a few things.I

I want to get into Skywarn , and this lesson got me started. Interesting and informative .Safety and the form for repeating hazardous weather is the first step to being a Skywarn spotter.

wxguy89 2018-05-18 18:06:58

Excellent course to become weather aware!

The wording on question 1 in the quiz is weird, so plan on being confused by it!

pmpsklz 2018-05-17 22:28:05

The content was slightly boring. I felt that the information was helpful though.

cbgaming_41 2018-05-17 07:20:07

pretty good but should be updated

ocatrina 2018-05-15 11:50:55

I could find no clear answers to a couple of the quiz questions. Questions should require definite answers instead of "close."

smokesters13 2018-05-15 10:08:35

love the online concept

stormstalker 2018-05-14 22:17:13

I was answering a few of the questions correctly and was still marked wrong. The answers need to be improved upon.

quilts2b 2018-05-14 21:55:35

It explained a great deal about what a spotter needs to know and why.

daveaa5hy 2018-05-09 18:47:02

This is a Basic Level of training as indicated by the title of the course. However, I feel it should get a little deeper into the role of Spotters by offering more insight to actual weather conditions a spotter should look for such as wall clouds, rotating storms, downdrafts, etc.

Jules61 2018-05-09 11:16:24

Enjoyed taking this course.

MegaSchultz 2018-05-05 09:00:13

Knowing that it's not as important for you to memorize the lesson verbatim, but to learn how you will apply that information in real-life situations is critical for these lessons. For some of us, it's a method we've desired for a long time.

LoJe 2018-05-04 17:02:04

The lesson provides valuable information.

SOKYSpotter 2018-05-04 14:58:59

Great course and easy to follow

LCCCTeach 2018-05-03 06:37:44

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.

Blin53 2018-05-02 23:59:23

It was a great experience

IsabelK 2018-05-02 19:54:36

I have always loved learning about weather. If I was studying my major of Early Childhood Education already, I would have went to college for meteorology.

Jhard12 2018-05-02 18:36:23

blink8512 2018-04-30 15:06:16

The way the questions are worded and multiply choose is not good and very hard to figure out

FNB Safety 2018-04-30 12:16:09

I'm an Occupational Safety and Health Specialist, promoting overall safety well-being for the company that I'm employed. I always conduct a Severe Weather Safety campaign in the spring. Have recently had several express interest in becoming Sev. Weather Spotters.

bhalaychik 2018-04-27 04:18:59

The lesson provided very little information related to the topic and needs to be adjusted. Additionally some of the contact information to report weather is not accurate.

JenLang 2018-04-26 19:19:13

This was very informative. I did not know that anyone could be a SKYWARN Spotter. Very good lesson.

A simple course that gets the point across. It could use a serious redesign, but the fundamentals are present.

Shellgirl 2018-04-19 19:29:53

An excellent presentation. I would even rematch it to gain a little more insight.

cmadairy 2018-04-19 10:43:18

The info is a combination of commonsense and patience. Don't forget situational awareness!

k1lho 2018-04-19 10:05:23

People take things for granted, and basic information as in this program can be lifesavers.

Jiller 2018-04-18 18:48:04

I really prefer a classroom setting but that’s my own preference

thetexasrabbit 2018-04-18 07:13:01

This was a great refresher, I haven't completed this training in many years. I cannot wait to get back out there.

Seafarer 2018-04-17 14:27:36

Excellent presentation

DBJohnson 2018-04-17 11:44:51

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.

Danno431 2018-04-17 11:33:39

Wonderful Experience. A Lot of good information

messiahofnaders 2018-04-16 10:30:13

Pretty basic stuff. Don't do this if you're looking to become a "storm chaser" This is a volunteer based "spotter". Spotters are for safety.

gusman321 2018-04-16 10:17:59

Hi

JessicaBebel 2018-04-15 20:00:43

I would like to see the quiz follow the information provided in the quiz. I received 3 incorrect answers and I believed them to be correct based on what I documented from the lab.

Jas700 2018-04-15 19:28:57

Very informative, Common sense is a life saver, I have been through all kinds of adverse weather, Safety is and should always be PRIORITY and these lessons stress that .. Remember if you ask yourself should I or shouldnt I, the answer is you shouldnt .Be safe always... Highly recommend these modules ...

570262 2018-04-15 17:40:42

this course helped me understand the spotter role and the effects of weather and shown me how to be more aware of everything around me

Questions 1is eitherlooking for an answer to discussed or mark correct answer wrong. Question 2 answers are all allowed but question want an answer that is not listed in the answers.

Dust 2018-04-11 13:47:19

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

ShockBucks 2018-04-11 09:47:53

Basic common sense information presented. A good starting point.

Gottin 2018-04-11 08:19:08

This is a quick and fairly easy training method. The intro gives you a brief and handy outlet for what a spotter's responsibilities are, who to report weather conditions to, and how to do it.

Wonderful course!

Bmt1103 2018-04-06 04:35:20

Some of the questions on the quick did not seem to match up.

kenbrannan 2018-04-05 20:50:30

This lesson would be easily understood by someone with no formal education in weather spotting. I have formal spotter education but still found useful information here in the lesson.

Skm306 2018-04-05 19:30:16

As alongtime educator, I recognize a well developed and well presented program

Carson297 2018-04-04 15:19:07

I’d give a 3 re-take limit, and then give the correct answers.

williamweidler 2018-04-03 20:08:46

Video's could be modernized - updated.

sandyfoster15 2018-04-03 10:17:26

Bite sized and interactive.

terryjewell 2018-04-03 09:29:13

the quiz is great and other than how to report it refreshes your memory on what you should do as a trained spotter

erinjensen 2018-04-03 09:08:59

I enjoyed this lesson.

jmach2 2018-04-02 20:34:25

BeckieGaskill 2018-04-01 09:45:23

This was a great way to learn about becoming a Skywarn Spotter.

mydisastertraining 2018-03-31 18:00:15

Overall pretty good. Some of the video content could have been done better. Leave out the story telling and create clear and concise enabling learning objectives.

veheinrich 2018-03-31 13:32:39

Good data. Like emphasis on safety.

psSkyWatcher 2018-03-30 13:02:24

Good focus on personal safety. Clear explanations about what items to observe and how to make reports.

ldhardt65 2018-03-30 11:26:17

Excellent tutorial, I really did learn more about spotters than I thought. Being from Texas I have always been amazed at the weather and a bit scared of it too. A new understanding.

jriffe@lith.org 2018-03-30 11:12:24

mikeboyce 2018-03-30 05:10:34

Neutral

billsalina 2018-03-29 20:48:38

This course covers all the topics in the SkyWarn spotters guide. It uses videos and scenarios that bring the content to life. I would recommend this course to anyone who intends to become a NWS SkyWarn spotter.

Wrestleman 2018-03-29 20:12:23

I would pass this on to others

mvogler 2018-03-29 15:37:09

excellent training

Dem_t3a 2018-03-28 16:04:03

It is very helpful and Educational. Even if being a spotter, or Chaser is not of desire, I would still recommend on taking this course for the sake of yourself, loved ones, and family

K5OFA 2018-03-28 13:14:55

good way to learn the material. Progress at your own pace.

Doxiemama16 2018-03-28 10:57:18

Questions were worded confusingly and not in line with what was taught in the lesson.

jthreet 2018-03-27 11:29:08

rprechtl 2018-03-27 10:47:55

The quiz questions (all of the correct answers) do not always reflect the lesson content.

bunni 2018-03-27 00:57:10

The videos and audio clips were fun, that was better than I expected. Serious story time for serious kids who like story time. Makes ya learn stuff. My favourite kind of classroom! :)

MichaelGrisham 2018-03-26 18:13:18

I feel more comfortable in my effort to becoming a storm spotter. This was a basic knowledge of information, but I felt I gained a decent amount of information.

ChrisPete49 2018-03-26 17:00:43

I learned a lot about super safety and how to do it correctly and safely

Stormchaser32 2018-03-26 16:28:19

I loved that it gave you stories and then a question

thiel89 2018-03-26 10:58:03

I enjoyed the online class. I just hope it does not totally replace the NWS classes that are being held.

tim283 2018-03-26 10:34:10

good info

clepak 2018-03-26 09:23:11

I completed the first module but couldnt find the 2nd. So I just took the quiz and passed

very good fast easy understandable lesson.

Interesting, practical, and easy to follow

k9viper 2018-03-24 17:55:55

I ENJOYED THIS TRAINING SECTION. IT IS VERY CONVENIENT TO BE ABLE ABLE TO TAKE THIS COURSE ON-LINE!

Jbeltz 2018-03-24 14:47:20

It was not too difficult and pretty enjoyable to do. I even had my son paying attention to the course.

catt129 2018-03-23 21:23:26

I enjoyed this lesson. I have never taken this type of class or a class at this site before. The site was easy to follow and use. The only issue I had, was that my computer rebooted and nothing I had done was saved. I had to start over and answer all of the questions again.

Spikeydo 2018-03-23 15:07:42

Great information. Not something to be hurried through. Requires full attention and study.

markashley 2018-03-23 15:02:19

Reasonably well done lesson, but does not clearly address some of the questions on the quiz. Certainly worthwhile though. Once completed, you'll know what to report and that personal safety takes priority.

clardabear 2018-03-22 14:15:00

Good short video clips!! I think this is better than the Class! Usually take the SkyWarn class in Texarkana.....but others that have taken it like this recomended it....A real winner!

W3RIK 2018-03-22 13:44:15

If you are interested in weather, then TAKE THIS COURSE !!

bjohnson06 2018-03-22 12:27:34

Great lesson. It could save your life one day

zachska87 2018-03-22 09:31:31

Good lesson, quiz portion was a bit strange, should provide correct answers if it thinks you missed some. After course review, I still don't know why it states that I missed some questions.

Skymind1 2018-03-21 21:15:44

This format os most helpful to m,e. Makes mr consider right and wrong options.

Thund3r 2018-03-21 19:24:27

Some of the situational clips are slightly difficult not to be distracted by, however they are informational and furthered my knowledge in weather.

pastolr25 2018-03-21 16:57:27

i love learning new thing;s

cjpartridge91 2018-03-21 15:43:48

It would be nice to see what the correct answers are for the questions I got incorrect.

skulldriver101 2018-03-21 12:44:55

needs minor improvement in how stuff is worded, etc

loradeiter 2018-03-20 18:04:13

Easy to navigate, but I still can't manage to answer one of the questions correctly based on the information provided.

Epinta2015@gmail.com 2018-03-20 12:18:38

Kimbean1960 2018-03-20 12:03:31

I enjoyed the information presented in the lesson and have a greater understanding of severe weather.

lwb2264 2018-03-20 07:40:50

What this teaches you to do is be vigilant and be ready for all weather related occurrences.

Astrogirl 2018-03-20 07:34:22

This lesson is useful even if one does not become a spotter

K5NTT 2018-03-20 01:32:44

Excellent Online Course. I Highly Recommend It.

dhagar 2018-03-19 19:33:47

Good information that reinforced the concern of safety as the foremost reason for such a program and gives a greater reason to participate as a volunteer.

Larson267 2018-03-19 18:40:47

Very informational and it’s information you can use all the time

masonbscience 2018-03-19 18:37:25

Wonderful course if you want to know more about what it takes to be a weather spotter, or just want to know more about staying safe in severe weather situations.

Sensei 2018-03-19 18:25:01

Informative lesson. Some of the quiz questions are misleading but you have the opportunity to retake the quiz.

kaitwx 2018-03-19 09:21:59

Thank You MetEd!

Tcavi2010 2018-03-18 21:23:44

Normajeancalia 2018-03-18 12:42:58

No prior experience. Just a storm watcher

edecker@lith.org 2018-03-18 09:13:13

very educational

xty214 2018-03-18 08:47:42

Great information for a new spotter or review for a seasoned one.

Michaelin2 2018-03-17 21:27:43

Real life examples, spot on instruction. Definitely worth the time to review.

nvflora 2018-03-16 19:29:34

ccoduto 2018-03-15 05:24:50

The questions in the quiz are poorly worded.

CPLSeraphim 2018-03-14 18:47:25

This is a great intro to skywarn class. I am using it as part of my training for my local ARES.

gintay2 2018-03-14 15:41:00

Educational

keithrt 2018-03-13 20:22:21

Good introduction to spotter basics.

krenee0116 2018-03-13 18:34:15

This lesson was very helpful. Although a couple of the quiz questions were answered in the lesson, the answers were not counted as correct when I feel they should have been based on the information provided. I really enjoyed it.

Drunruh 2018-03-13 14:49:30

Make sure the answers to questions are apart of the available options.

W0GUS 2018-03-13 12:13:42

This introductory course should be a "must complete" before you go to your local severe weather class organized by your local weather gurus / emergency management personnel.

Wbrinker 2018-03-12 18:45:55

Great class, very interesting

Desertrat214 2018-03-11 20:35:51

This lesson was well planned in a logical order and informative.

Eman2018 2018-03-11 18:23:35

This course is a great way to becoming a storm spotter.

E016267 2018-03-10 13:08:18

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.. I am currently teaching a Weather course for the United States Power Squadrons.

Dopamine2004 2018-03-09 19:07:42

Well constructed lesson. Quiz was challenging.

andrewj_j 2018-03-09 12:55:13

Very well organized course. I recommend that everyone should review the material to improve their knowledge.

enlightest 2018-03-09 11:18:54

I thoroughly enjoyed the topic included and the preferred requirements for the safety of each and every spotter.

alonzojadams 2018-03-08 13:23:31

kyoung21 2018-03-07 17:15:05

I learned a lot about Skywarn Spotters.

sylmorellc 2018-03-07 16:02:43

The video portions of lesson need to be more in-depth.

2018-03-07 12:10:40

Good Information

cbullard 2018-03-07 07:33:39

Our family has been a NOAA weather station for years.

TrooperGirl 2018-03-07 06:02:41

Extremely user friendly. Should be a basic requirement for all responding emergency personnel.

jpgrln 2018-03-07 04:54:48

I would like further clarification on types of weather that isn't reported and the "7" key components may be difficult to remember. An acronym for them may be helpful.

okieman98 2018-03-06 17:49:37

shows basic training very well

daisy4812 2018-03-06 17:38:18

KF5RNF 2018-03-05 15:21:38

Great Skywarn Training

brybaker 2018-03-05 14:52:53

Very good foundational knowledge of the role of the SKYWARN spotter.

RWWhite 2018-03-05 13:43:50

I think there should be more information included on the types of storms and what to look for

tomcsmt 2018-03-05 11:59:23

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.

eversong 2018-03-05 09:59:51

Interesting facts

Hogmal 2018-03-05 08:22:56

The information in the lesson was great and easy to follow. I have learned quite a bit about being a spotter and what it takes and how much it means to the community.

Great training initiative to advise on the proper procedures and actions to take while storm spotting to help the general public.

creatived1 2018-02-28 10:18:39

Good overall introduction to the subject.

jr.conover 2018-02-28 08:11:46

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.

Nimblebee 2018-02-27 18:55:27

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.

Very well constructed and useful information for my discipline (ARES)

danwebb25 2018-02-21 14:10:46

Other real-life scenarios for ALL weather-related events and a clear and precise mentioning of how to contact emergency personnel and other NWS personnel to report incidents.

Dansweather 2018-02-21 12:59:09

Try to make it a little more interactive. I know, safety in a weather event is the key factor.

finbully 2018-02-21 12:06:32

Good overview on spotter basics.

OPPDtrainer 2018-02-19 08:14:39

Well presented information for individuals and non-emergency response personnel.

IndianaDan 2018-02-18 20:53:34

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.

markriaboy 2018-02-18 12:00:55

I would like the questions in the quiz to relate closer to the text in the course. I felt a number of the quiz questions were ambiguous and could have been answered differently.

jkeulen 2018-02-12 17:19:18

Test questions that have ‘check all that apply’ or multiple choice without feed back don’t do anything to strengthen the test taker’s knowledge. I like to learn from my mistakes so I can be accurate in my knowledge instead of leaving me questioning my newly learned info.

As a novice, and being introduced to the Weather Spotter role this initial presentation was user friendly, and helped to open my awareness.

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" ?

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.

This is because yo now can have a chance to be part of a process that just may warned and prepared other and maybe save a life.

Good introduction to becoming a SKYWARN Spotter.

ljettinger 2017-11-09 09:50:53

There were quiz questions asked requiring information that was not directly contained in any of the lessons, in particular, nowhere in the lesson does it state that lightning or thunderstorms are not to be reported and also nowhere does it say that the ID

I found that some of the questions were not answered in the lesson content. Also, some of the questions were very misleading. I also think it would be nice to see the right answers to the questions that I have marked wrong.

cmgardape 2017-10-18 08:58:54

I like the way the course are broken down. It makes it easier to learn. You can also move at your own pace wit no time limit on the course which was optimal for me

SkyWarnVermont 2017-10-16 06:32:46

I feel this was a great way to run over the main components of being a SkyWarn spotter. Not only did it provide current information, but it also put you into a hypothetical situation and provided historical information aswel

Aro2u 2017-10-15 20:34:35

Good project for the entire family. Looking forward to working with the program

dlloydmcl 2017-10-15 14:19:08

I was not familiar with spotter responsibilities. This lesson was interesting and very informative.

skate2ice 2017-10-12 01:08:18

I've taken this before... both online and in person via Memphis and Greenville, SC. This is an excellent refresher course for me.

LAblueskies 2017-10-11 21:02:29

These lessons are great for weather enthusiast who would like to be more involved in helping their community during severe weather situations.

TamraLynn 2017-09-28 16:02:13

The question with no correct answer needs to be re-written.

gdomena 2017-09-21 18:36:44

I believe it was a good lesson and worth learning. However, even after reading through the print out lesson and the online lesson I still was unable to receive 100% on the final quiz. Specifically in regards what the Spotter ID number.

malloryjn 2017-09-21 13:27:07

This was fun yet informative at the same time. I enjoyed it!

kd2oai 2017-09-19 10:03:08

To the point, with proper information.

K4DSC 2017-09-19 09:51:24

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.

Lunavega 2017-09-12 20:53:35

I'd like to see this module updated to reflect the current times. We have come a long way in 7 years (especially technologically-wise), and there are much more possibilities that we can use to help the Sky Spotter program. We have smart phones now, with all types of ways for contact such as: social media, apps, weather devices, photos, etc.

prsmith 2017-09-11 14:33:24

As good as or better than the in-person workshops. My only suggestion would be to include why some question choices are incorrect (is spotter number NOT identification? Why not?)

KarisGiuliano 2017-09-11 11:03:46

It was informational and quick. It covered the keys components to spotting and how to do it correctly.

navinsinghweather 2017-08-11 23:36:06

This lesson did an excellent job explaining the role of the Skywarn spotter, however there should be a page emphasizing what not to report in spotter reports (for example, winds < 50 mph as per spotter network guidelines).

In this day and age the ability to make a quality video production with little or no experience is common. Some of the static power point type slide presentation could be improved upon.

It would help if when an answer is incorrect an explanation of why the answer is incorrect is given.

RescueMJ 2017-06-28 00:10:05

Format is user friendly. Photographs are very descriptive. Test questions could be narrowed more. Instant feedback on why quiz question was wrong would be beneficial.

I thought the lesson was very good and I'm going to view it again.

w1ttm 2017-06-19 15:32:34

There were a number of questions in the question pool that were barely touched upon in the material. for example which of the following weather events are not notified by skywarn was hardly covered in the online material while the safety stuff was covered multiple times.

Found this lesson to be very interesting. Was able to stay focused.

heloskick 2017-06-18 16:28:23

The module could be a little more user friendly. Some of the quiz questions are a little confusing due to the fact that the answers vs the information is not the same.

Erica78 2017-05-27 23:41:26

A bit out-dated.

Very informative and easy to use system

PrizeOx 2017-05-27 16:37:45

As a hearing impaired person, I was sorely disappointed at the lack of closed captions, and I have no idea why they were not included. Why not open this up to more people? Really.

Great course.

AngelMo48 2017-05-26 12:54:00

I have always been very interested in weather and how it works, and how I have help others when it comes to the safety

lynn.duran@gmail.com 2017-05-26 11:29:59

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.

twistedlulu 2017-05-24 12:56:24

nice information for learning to keep safe during storms in general

mec535385 2017-05-24 09:27:09

w2bcx 2017-05-20 17:02:17

It would be worthwhile for everyone, not just spotters to take this brief course. The biggest take away for me was the importance of personal safety. I will always bear in mind and be guided by the the ACES acronym.

Mike Keding 2017-05-18 18:01:08

Great course, but a little too general.

kendramuncie06 2017-04-07 13:34:30

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.

armckennon 2017-04-07 09:42:29

Some questions are misleading and contradict themselves.

pete_reynolds 2017-03-18 13:16:41

This is a nice introduction, or if you're like me refresher, on the basics of spotting.

Kzoo 2017-03-18 10:48:31

Excellent

KC3HID 2017-03-18 10:48:20

Good course before the main basics course

sehie1975 2017-03-18 00:11:08

good lesson

Timothyb196 2017-03-17 20:02:12

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.

jrmac 2017-03-17 19:10:29

Need to show the correct answers after the quiz.

ashlabee1988 2017-03-17 18:20:03

I liked it.

2017-03-16 14:57:31

Was very informative and easily understood.

lancerferguson 2017-03-16 13:15:51

The scoring results indicated I'd left some questions blank when this was not the case. Still passed so not a huge issue but kind of an odd thing to see.

W7EMP 2017-03-15 22:10:52

It was informative and I learned some new things.

skully622 2017-03-15 19:15:01

Very informative

iceman1026 2017-03-15 17:00:24

Excellent introduction to weather spotting.

KE5CDR 2017-03-15 00:11:15

Information is presented very dry.

Shooz 2017-03-14 16:45:39

The only problem I had was that I did not download the course and my internet connection went out twice and the battery died once while I was taking it. But I had fun with the presentation and the information was good.

mgraczyk 2017-03-14 11:43:44

Program helps to display the important roles spotters play in aiding in public safety in various situations, not just hail, storm, and tornado events.

David1980@ 2017-03-14 10:13:18

great information

Jwrobinson1986 2017-03-14 00:56:08

The information contained in the lesson plan is very important to storm spotters

belangerc 2017-03-13 18:35:46

Great information to help you with your training.

behningbarry@yahoo.com 2017-03-13 04:53:51

Very useful and valuable information.

511059 2017-03-12 22:28:16

I have been somewhat trained by my friends and teammates on Metro.

Hornbrook1 2017-03-12 18:51:06

I thought the teaching and testing were very understandable and knowledgeable. It is in line with my other safety training in the fact that personal safety must come first to be able to complete the task to help others.

Nnovelli 2017-03-12 15:08:49

this was a great class. I think i liked it better this years since i took in online compared to my other years of going to a in person class the last couple of years.

mcgeed6 2017-03-11 21:29:14

Great way to lean how to be a spotter. Really good program!

skipoliver 2017-03-11 18:18:09

It was a well organized, thought provoking lesson.

OMoore 2017-03-11 13:16:45

More personal accounts would be very effective.

Safety4All 2017-03-11 11:52:19

Thank y'all so very much for providing accurate, important information that will further assist in providing accurate weather information to the public. Great job!

Jaynell73 2017-03-11 10:52:06

This lesson was easy to understand. It took you step by step in every situation possible. I would highly recommend this to anybody wanting to do Storm Spotting.

DaveK 2017-03-10 09:17:26

Good information especially as it relates to reporting

acunaju 2017-03-10 08:03:00

Overall, good course.

metwin59 2017-03-10 00:36:52

The lesson provides the basics to become a safe storm watcher and the quiz reinforces the material.

N8DVU 2017-03-09 21:22:15

FIRST LESSON I HAVE TAKEN. I FOUND IT TO BE INFORMATIVE AND WELL STRUCTURED

Rainman78 2017-03-08 20:12:44

Good exam with very useful, educational and informative info/questions for anyone interested in weather spotting

type117 2017-03-08 12:21:35

There were some things that I did not know when reviewing the lesson. I strongly advise that people read the lessons and quiz themselves before taking on the force of weather.

asmorris19 2017-03-07 20:29:59

It would be helpful to have more scenario's just to help reinforce the protocol that is used. Also now that twitter is a very common use it would be helpful to have a section on what the twitter protocol's look like. In all though the content was helpful.

tonytanner50 2017-03-07 19:43:18

Very informational

stormwatcher177 2017-03-07 16:10:37

If you love weather you should look into these lessons I learned several important and interesting facts

jwilhite 2017-03-07 08:32:32

Very informative

Jekyll424 2017-03-06 20:04:24

Only one of the questions was a bit confusing. I look forward to completeing many other courses here online.

advcomm88 2017-03-06 14:58:13

This lesson was very informative.

Ramesjamsey 2017-03-06 13:03:38

solid overall lesson. certain descriptions of situations that unfolded seemed a bit corny, but the situations themselves are very serious and should be treated as such. rookie storm spotters can learn quite a bit from this.

jkottkamp@fourway.net 2017-03-06 11:48:16

Good

jplanck 2017-03-05 01:23:02

Very informative course.

bradreed 2017-03-05 00:35:13

Great training info.

TSSAR1701 2017-03-04 15:09:21

This is an excellent way to begin or refresh ones knowledge

WJY111 2017-03-04 11:36:41

Not all pages appeared in the module - perhaps because I was using an iPad. It was infrequent but still annoying.

Coltonroady 2017-03-03 22:02:08

It was really well put together

Ellemichelle25 2017-03-02 18:25:22

Really great lesson! Learned a lot.

dharrell15 2017-03-02 08:19:01

I have had a great experience with this course and hope to become a trained spotter after just as a hobby. I would give this course a 10/10

CaplanTX 2017-03-02 00:26:42

Great course, really covers the basics of storm-spotting.

RobCarey 2017-03-01 13:27:53

Great course

Heather.Key836 2017-03-01 11:40:29

The online training has improved but the quiz has a couple questions that tricky.

ffkuvfd99 2017-03-01 10:48:04

good training

WildLatin 2017-02-28 22:39:33

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.

ttruesdale 2017-02-28 19:30:00

A very concise & informative lesson.

NieseJ 2017-02-26 15:41:25

This is an excellent tool to boost understanding and distribution of knowledge to more potential weather spotters.

w9dba 2017-02-26 12:37:44

Very well put together training program.

krnewell 2017-02-26 06:01:34

The course was made more interesting by combining written text and video.

Yostie 2017-02-26 04:30:09

Great refresher for me! Sometimes we get caught up in the drama of an event unfolding, this was a great reminder on how quickly something can happen and how to always stay safe!

dean1984 2017-02-25 10:39:19

It would be cool to do field work like track a tornadic storm in the training.

2017-02-25 07:16:38

The material presented was the same as normal training, informative enough, but somewhat repetitive and time consuming. Faster than a normal training meeting, though, since you can read at your own pace.

b.weir63@hotmail.com 2017-02-24 16:31:24

Having no prior experience, I feel that this course was very helpful and informative.

raylecom@centurylink.net 2017-02-24 15:57:58

MennoHawk 2017-02-21 18:58:31

Great beginning course for learning how to communicate as a spotter and safety situations.

lbking49 2017-02-20 14:59:45

roachy21113 2017-02-20 13:42:45

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.

langdst 2017-02-20 07:43:19

Pretty well done, as a past Firefighter in Michigan this was a great review for me to re-certify!

k5qle 2017-02-19 20:16:59

Good stuff for all spotters.

bbarker17 2017-02-18 11:04:07

Basic, informative and gets the point across.

jdfain 2017-02-18 10:00:39

angelamargrave 2017-02-16 19:53:06

Test questions are not clear

Dragonbard 2017-02-16 10:21:23

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.

StormShy 2017-02-16 09:52:28

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

jasonw120 2017-02-15 13:38:12

oscarjcortez 2017-02-15 10:29:42

The information presented was very good.

shnelleyp 2017-02-13 11:41:59

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.

eshults75 2017-02-13 10:56:41

very informative and easy to understand with

lawyurup 2017-02-13 10:54:40

Information seems random and elementary. A "live" video presenter with visual aids would be more suitable.

gevans5603 2017-02-12 17:28:19

kwasz 2017-02-08 08:00:25

great learning tool

wd4aog 2017-02-07 20:00:53

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.

9y4C 2017-02-07 19:32:22

Information was well put together for easier understanding

ArtApplewhite 2017-02-07 14:30:17

Seems like a lot of 'check all that apply' that seem tricky.

jjc4 2017-01-29 17:52:34

Good intro for beginning Skywarn volunteer.

traumaemt 2017-01-29 13:17:35

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.

boogerjr 2017-01-29 12:04:25

The flow of the information prior to the quiz seemed appropriate.

Bombero474 2017-01-29 10:06:46

Flows smoothly, Videos are a good length for interest and retention.

jeremy.choate 2017-01-28 15:23:15

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.

StormEagle 2017-01-26 19:46:42

I learned a lot from this.

benner44 2017-01-26 14:52:33

jholladay 2017-01-25 18:39:53

Very good training.

KN4AAO 2017-01-24 12:41:24

I feel it made me more aware of the importance of staying safe. I think this prepped me best for becoming a proper skywarn participant.

Gingerlily20 2017-01-23 20:51:35

Mike Stone 2017-01-22 11:23:41

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.

coopesg 2017-01-21 15:01:27

Very good training format.

wolf1964 2017-01-21 10:50:25

JesseVFF 2017-01-16 02:48:54

Great Easy Quiz Passed!

KK1TLS 2017-01-15 13:05:56

Good lesson but videos are a little slow. Some of the test answers seem a little ambiguous. Overall, very helpful.

NOHaver52408 2017-01-14 18:35:17

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.

feicuiyi 2017-01-13 19:46:58

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.

amerritt79 2017-01-13 15:22:03

Easy to use, yet very informative

jtwrightjr 2017-01-11 14:47:46

Good introduction to being a spotter. Some of the information about means of communication could have been presented with a bit more clarity.

kasper73 2017-01-10 08:34:58

Great lesson for those interested in weather!

Birdbot 2017-01-10 05:08:16

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.

LDMatheson 2017-01-09 12:37:00

Great training.

babydoll3133 2017-01-07 23:47:43

The Skywarn Spotter test was extremely interesting to take. I love learning about weather.

KF5I 2017-01-03 14:11:27

Good overview. I would like to see more information on questions missed so I can review the relevant section.

WxDstallings 2017-01-03 13:12:21

Good review of the concepts and practical real life situations.

TSTORMZ 2016-12-26 03:12:39

This lesson is good for audio-instruction of possible situations as well as the availability of multiple choice questions that are scattered throughout the lesson before you take the quiz.

glock19 2016-12-25 21:40:34

it was ok

Markbachman 2016-12-11 20:49:50

I would make sure that you go through the lesson more than once. Be sure to study up!

fshaghafi 2016-12-11 15:51:12

I am using a kindle fire device and therefore unable to utilize the plugin devices. Since it is easier for me to use this than my laptop, it would have been more useful to have had the option to watch the videos prior to test taking.

Thunderstruck401 2016-12-11 13:21:00

The quiz targeted several good focal points but not a complete quiz for skywarn spotters as to majority of quiz was over primarily one objective which is to report, however I feel in order to report as a skywarn spotter its imperative that additional material in regards to visual focus on hazardous weather events/severe weather, guidelines on what to report and why, no additional scenarios needed that section is adequate unless you improve it as an actual video of a skywarn and or chaser near the area of present hazard with an indication of commentary as to things to do which could easily be obtained by request of individual uploaders contact information on YouTube there are thousands of videos that are severe weather related and could possibly be used as informational and educational purposes. Read uploaders information below any video, usually the uploader has own website in which the uploader could be contacted directly.
