My favorite thing about the class was the idea that it was online and I did not have to get up at a specific time of day to go to it. It was nice how everything we needed to know was in one place and there was always an explanation for everything we had to do or what we have to know for the week. It was nice to be able to post our blogs online because for those who are not Internet friendly got the experience.
I did not like how there were certain times for everything. I understand that we have a week and only three posts, but sometimes during the week it is hard to make time for it. I work Tuesday thru Thursday, so it is hard for me to post during the week. A few weeks I missed the twelve hour time difference because I had class and work, so I missed out on points.
If I could change anything it would be the time slots only because having such a constriction was really hard and stressful especially for people who have really tight schedules to follow by and they picked an online class because they thought it would be easier with the time commitment.
I second your opinion. Having the 12 hours gap definitely did not help out especially with us busy students. I also think that the tests were really hard and tricky because most of the answers seemed to be correct since I was reading from the book, but some of them turned out to be wrong! If there was one thing I would change, it would be the time slots as well as having some kind of human interaction with the professor so that it would help us understand the different concepts better and maybe it could somehow prepare us for the tests and final.
ReplyDeleteI so agree with you and your post. I liked the fact that this class is online and somewhat beneficiary because I didn't have to wake up and get up early in the morning like I do for my other classes. And like you, I didn't like that we had to wait 12 hours to answer another question after doing one. Even though, I didn't have to go to work like you do, it still gave me hard time to find time to do the assignment. Our professor should remove the freezetime for answering question after another so that students who have a tight schedule can just do the assignment in one seating and get them over with and out of the way so they don't have to worry about it.
ReplyDeleteHaha almost everyone posted the same thing about how they love that its an online class. I also loved that its an online class because it gave me time to do what I needed on my own time. It was nice. This course was in fact very organized so that everything we needed to do was clear and easy to find and figure out. I know how you feel I have a very tight schedule and it would have been nice to not have a time limit. It would have been less stressful if we did not have a time limit because it was hard to fit it all within a time span. I would definitely change the time slots for these.
