My favorite thing about the class is that it is online and that I could pretty much do everything at my own pace. I was basically only responsible for meeting deadlines. I liked that the teacher was very accessible and was there to answer ALL of my questions (which is hard to find in an online class). What I didn't like about the class is the fact that the discussion questions had to be posted no sooner than 12 hours apart. This kinda threw me off over these last couple of weeks because I would have rather done all of them at once and when I would think about it again the discussion week would be over. My fault, should've been more organized :).
My only suggestion to improve this class would probably be to change the policy on the discussion questions. We should be allowed to post at will as long as we get the 3 questions answered within the week. I also think that we should be able to chose what to discuss like we do the 3 and then we have optional discussions as well.
I totally feel you on that. In the beginning, it was so easy for me to stay on top of things because I only had this class to focus on. Then when second summer session came around, I had like two other classes on top of that that I had to focus on. Then I went on a trip too and just lost track of things. I never slipped up on the blogs, but I did on the readings. That certainly hurt my later test scores. But things happen, and you learn from them. I like that this class was online too... it was so nice not having to go to class! Lol.
