Only after the first few weeks did I fully realize how well the course is organized, the wealth of material and the way that the course's week to week consistency allows students to know what to expect in terms of their work.<br /><br />Like favorite.fruit above, I also find myself spending a huge amount of time trying to complete the assignments and leaving some things out (and English is my first language!). It is definitely time well spent, but it would probably be more enjoyable if it was my only course and I had more time to invest in it. But that is life, and it's a good reminder of how some of my students probably feel as well (especially in a class like English). In the end, a good student just had to push himself to be disciplined and consistent in his work.Shalomozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00330691540851048608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876700296864873986.post-40310707270920280392013-03-22T02:45:46.498-07:002013-03-22T02:45:46.498-07:00The course is really well organized but it is not ...The course is really well organized but it is not possible for you to anticipate all of the pitfalls that befall the novice in this area. I have spent many, many hours on completing the various activities required for the fourth session and that is just on posting and reading blogs without actually preparing the lesson. In all I am finding the experience extremely frustrating without sufficient support. favorite.fruithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06058114755533587501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876700296864873986.post-68073884328339933782013-03-02T11:36:33.985-08:002013-03-02T11:36:33.985-08:00Avraham,

Everything is so clear, the checklist at the end is extremely helpful. We are also very excited to be the first students to explore and learn from your course. Good luck to all of us!sarah Gatenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01313535897441467544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876700296864873986.post-74701350871937343382013-02-25T01:06:27.456-08:002013-02-25T01:06:27.456-08:00learning disabilities

What did you use before for online courses? <br /><br />I am also surprised that <i>special education</i> doesn't come up in the collocation search but then I don't know what corpus they use in Prowritingaid. If you search <a href="http://corpus.byu.edu/coca" rel="nofollow">COCA</a> it comes up as the MOST frequent collocation for <i>special</i>.<br /><br />By the way, guess what is the most frequent noun that comes after <i>learning</i> ?<br /><br />I am glad that you've resumed blogging.<br /><br />LEOLeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16077987567636970527noreply@blogger.com
