I really like the lab manual... Someone has really spent time
thinking about these activities... I think it is a good way to make
sure the student learn and understand these topics.
*Diane Limbaugh, Oklahoma State University, US*
The [lab manual] is easy to read and to follow. The charts / tables
seem to be placed in a logical spot so the flow of the material is
not interrupted. I do see a strong application of this [lab manual]
to my classroom.
*Mary Simpson, Baylor University, US*
[The lab manual's] strengths include introducing various aspects of
terminology, as well as a well-designed wear testing sequence... I
especially like the use of the tables in the chapters, which are
almost like a glossary of information relevant to the appropriate
chapters, as well as the table listing the various test methods,
both U.S and international, that can be used to evaluate different
characteristics.
*Bruce A. Cameron, University of Wyoming, US*
My general impression of the [manual] is very good. I would
definitely use this lab manual when teaching an apparel evaluation
course. The manual is very easy to follow and the instructions are
very clear. The activities involve garments that the students will
be easily able to find in their wardrobes and bring to class. The
evaluation tables supplied to evaluate the quality of different
types of garments are very thorough and complete. ... I feel that
this manual would be beneficial to our classroom needs.
*Kathryn J. Reiley, Art Institute International, US*
I would love to have this in my classes... I think even without a
lab, this book content will be valuable.
