Clock Talks were actually pretty fun. And I guess they are pretty valuable because we all should get used to holding a conversation with people who we aren't exactly friends with. Looking forward to doing again! -Waleed A.
I loved it! It was so much fun to talk to people I wouldn't usually concider talking to! My first two dates were sooooo much fun and I actually really want to talk to them more. I can't wait to do more! I'm learning so much about holding up a conversation (though I didn't do very well with that myself > <) I hope I can be friends with everyone in the class! <3 -Cathy E.
The clock talks were very helpful and fun. This really helps you get open to people who you don't know and also the clock talk helps you on how to communicate in a comfort zone that you have to adjust into. This is why I love this class, you get learn something new everyday. I hope we get to do this activity again!
I really liked the clock talks. It was cool because I'm not exactly close friends with 24 people in the class, so i was forced to branch out and talk to different people. It was really fun and i hope that we can do it again sometime next week. I also really liked how we wrote topics of conversation on the board so when we were talking there wasn't a lot of awkward silences! -Andrea Cozzi
The clock talks showed me how to listen fully and not give my own opinion about things. Focusing on the other person's story is a great exercise. Christine Ross Cano
The clock talks were actually very interesting. Normally, I zone out what people are saying all the time but this fourced me to actually listen to what someone has to say and learn more about each other without butting in and talking about yourself for a whole minute. I really like them!
I think that the clock talks worked well. I could talk with other people that I did not know. We could not have a long conversation, but at least we could share our basic information or names! I really enjoyed playing this game! *Jeesoo Won
The clock talks went really good. I listened without giving my thoughts on what the person was saying and really understood what their take on things were. It was fun to talk to people I've never met before.
The clock talks where pretty fun and interesting. You get to learn more about other people then you normally would with just a generic back ands forth conversation.
The clocks activity is one of the most enjoyable activities i have partaken in during a gym class by far. The ability to be in a position where someone is truly LISTENING to you is one that isn't found very often, and the ability to return the favor is rewarding. Although we are only two dates down, i know more about two of my classmates that i did before, and that i don't think i would have ever been able to do that without this activity.
I liked the clocks because there were so many time slots that we had to find people we didnt know. I hope we do it again so that we can meet more people and learn to listen better.
I liked the clock talk activitity. I talked to people that normally i wouldnt! I liked that it caused us to leave our convert zones or our convert groups and talk to knew people!
I thought the clock activity was great because you not only had to listen to someone, but it also made us talk about ourselves in a way we usually don't with people we might just be meeting for the first time. It was really fun, and kinda funny too because we ended up laughing at some of the things that ended up coming out of our mouths.
I think the clock activity is a great way to meet new people and listen to what people have to say. i really enjoy listening to stories of people i have never met. Its a great way to see what people are like and what kind of personality they have !
very helpful i must say , i liked how we had to listen to the other person and not comment it gave me a chance to really listen and consentrate on what the other person was talking about & it was FUN. i loved how we could only pick the same person once because i talked to people i would never go up on my own and it turned out they were pretty cool it helped me branch out. i really did enjoy this activity and its been one of my favorites so far
We got pretty off topic with my conversations, but I had a good time, and I think that my dates did too! (At least I hope so.) I think this is a cool way to get to know people. I'm excited for my "date" with Mr. H. -Ali Maniscalco
I really liked the clock activity. It was cool to just sit there and listen to the other person talking. You got to learn something different about them and maybe find something that you have in common. Making the clock itself reminded me of my days back in elementary school cause I used to make them all the time. So it was fun!
I think the clocks are a good idea to talk to a bunch of different people. My talks went pretty well and I enjoyed getting to know the people I talked with. I also think the clocks can be a good way to partner up with people we don't normally talk to. Hopefully, we can get to know each other better as a class through these talks. Michelle Baum
The clock talk were actually pretty fun and interesting. It forces you till listen to people. It's also a good way to learn what people are like that you normally wouldn't talk to. I liked the clock talks and I can't wait to do them again. -Tom McClure
i really enjoyed the time with my ‘date’. And I tried to be a good listener all through the conversation. It is always fun to know new people, and I believe we are building up a lot in this class！
I really liked the clock talks. It was good to listen to different people without interruptions or distractions! I also liked how we picked 24 different people instead of 12. I don't know all the people in the class and this will be a great way to meet them! -Maggie Bednarek
I really enjoyed clock talks. I don't think a lot of people understand the value of LISTENING rather than talking. I love getting to know people and randomly talking about yourself is the best way to open up. I think the activity is extremely valuable because talking to people and learning about them what you can't see from the outside is really important.

I enjoyed the clock talks because it gave us a deep insight into other people's lives. Normally, conversations are superficial, and people don't really pay attention to what other people say. Since w had to actually listen this time, we really got to know the other person better. Soumik Biswas
They were really fun and I had a great time being able to talk to alot of different people. I wish this was done in every class. It was fun to just get to listen to people and what they had to say and they listened back. Over all super fun activity.
The clock activity was kind of awkward because you couldn't have a real conversation with the person. You just had to sit there staring at them which was weird but good at the same time because you were paying full attention to what they had to say. Kelly Dudar
The clock activity was a great way to interact with others. I really enjoyed this activity because it was different. I found out that although we are all different, we have some similar interests.
I liked the clock talks. It made you talk to people you wouldn't normally talk to. It was good making yourself listen or talk for a full minute. -Amanda Jensen
