    Learning Experience: I really enjoyed the online course. I thought it was well planned and layed out, easy for me to follow. The work load(h.w. & test)was just enough, so i could finish everything with enough time, learn about the topics and not feel over loaded and rushed.
    Faculty: in my other online class the instructor sent out a message at the end about the grading scale and said we could stop when we received the grade we were shooting for. I was wondering about the grading system in this class too because sometimes if you have a B in a class and there is no way you could get an A or a C no matter what you do then stopping might be the easier way. Well, in any case it IS good to know and I never heard of that approach before but it makes sense. I guess it all worked out in the end. The course was everything you said it would be, fun but a lot of work. And it was! I enjoyed the web-labs because they were a lot of fun and easy to understand. And the answers were usually somewhere in the text. I also liked the assignments that required us to get online. Sometimes articles aside from the reading book gave me a better idea and understanding of the subject for that week.
