Today it was announced that if we didn't have Chapters 1-16 completed and printed, we could possibly fail. I think the fact that most of us taught ourselves and our classmates a program and have designed multiple versions of our webpages is pretty good considering the lack of direction we've received from our leader.
We could improve our classes by borrowing from the University of Dubuque's class structure: A chapter or two is assigned, reviewed in class, questions are answered, and the knowledge is applied. My sister is attending UD as a freshman, and she has already learned things her first year that I was never taught in my almost four years of Graphic Design.
These opinions are the other class members' as well as mine, although I'm not sure they will speak up for fear of failing or creating even more tension in the classroom. I ask that either Al take some classes or teach himself to use Dreamweaver--If we are to do it, he can too--or someone else is asked to take this class. Even if something can't be done for our class, I don't want this to continue for future students.
