First of all, I want you to know that I am really enjoying this class, and think you have done an awesome making it interesting! I really enjoy how interactive you make the class, and it is much easier to swallow than just a straight lecture class. I usually have a really hard time sitting through classes, but I have had no such trouble with this class.
One thing that I am having a hard time with in this class is the personal evaluations. I am able to give great feedback every week to my partner, but I have a hard time writing about myself. I'm just not sure what you want us to say in those reflections....Any tips? I also feel like the word count in these blog responses makes me stretch my point in order to have 200+ words. I feel like my posts have fluffy portions of them. I do wish that a little more of the class participated on some days (the burden lies on the students, not you), because sometimes it feels like the same 5-7 people participate a lot of the time, and I love to hear from other opinions and voices.
Overall, I am absolutely loving this class, and have very little to critique. I am always looking to become a better writer and this class is doing just that.
I agree that the environment in the class is awesome. I love being able to interact and listen to others interact as well. The class size is perfect and the group participation is incredibly valuable.
