"This was my very first online class. It was excellent. The instructor gave immediate feedback and even though everything was via email, she was very personable and easy to communicate with."
"The instructor was wonderful! She gave immediate feedback on each assignment and was very positive. Her site was easy to understand and each assignment was well explained. She also provided access to several wonderful sites. I would definitely recommend this course!"
"I love how this class gives me an immediately workable plan for literature circles. I know this was your goal, but it's kind of a rarity in graduate level courses. Usually it's read a chapter and spit it back out in a paper. This has been much more valuable and worthwhile. I appreciate your forward thinking!"
"Thank you for all your help and support. I have taken a lot of classes (almost to my masters + 30) and this is the best one by far. I feel that I truly learned a lot and can actually go and apply it-tomorrow!! Thank you for not making me do busy work or meaningless papers. This was the first on-line course I have taken and I definitely felt more of a personal connection."
"I really enjoyed the course. I am now equipped with a complete literature circles plan and confidence to try it in my classroom. I would definitely recommend this course to other students."
"Ms. Kvaale was very prompt in giving me daily feedback. She took personal interest in my project, and all the assignments were very relevant. Excellent course, excellent instructor!"
"I appreciated the fact that the course assignments allowed me to create a useable plan for my classroom. So often with courses, the assignments are good but aren't "user friendly". After taking this course, I have a detailed plan I can use in my classroom this fall."
"I loved this course! Judy made the assignments relevant to what I will be doing in the classroom. The web sites provided were very useful, and I will continue to use them when teaching."
"A useful and well-organized course. The instructor communicated expectations and feedback well."
