ECMP 355

In class today we were presented with the following questions prompted by Jackie and Dani's comments on their blogs.
I feel as though I should comment on this topic because I do feel strongly about how this class is moving forward.

First off, my situation. I am in my fourth year and taking six classes, I have experience taking a class through Athabasca.

1.Does the fact that one student sees the nature of online learning less social than the other simply a personality issue or is there something about the experience?
- I feel that everyone takes something different from each experience. I may not grasp a lot of content from this class because it is a lot to work with, but look! I can make a blog! It is up to everyone what they take out of the online learning what they can. This is the same with an online class and one that is face to face.

2. How do we get support? How do you get help in other course?
- I find that we get great support in this class. Dean, I am sorry for emailing you ALL the time! haha. I do find it difficult sometimes because I do not know how to accurately describe my issues without showing what is wrong. This is quite difficult for me because I am new to all this technology stuff.

There were two other questions, but I liked these questions.

As someone who is new to technology, I found this course had TOO much to do. I realise that that there is so much content that we need to cover in the semester, however I had a lot of issues working with it. I think everything went by real fast, and I do not completely comprehend all the topics. I find this a negative about the class.
