Hazen Senior High School Student - 05/02/08 
i like that i have alot more time to complete assignments. the class isnt very hard, but there are too many writing assignments and they are worth more points than they really should be. there should be more reading-quizzes.

Its hard to understand whats expected. It would be easier if it was organized a little bit better.
Hazen Senior High School Student - 01/17/08
Two things i did not like about the course is that the credit recovery was not clear of what you can and can not skip. Also, if there were due dates, students would be MUCH involved and get things done on time and not be behind on any assignments. There should be more clarifiation for assignments and how it is designed so all the students can be more organized.
