  • "The class was very informative. I like that it used modern and up to date information. It was current and so was the book. Reading out of format order, jumping around was a bit challenging, but I love the web pages for backup and to see that things were as it were taught. Class interaction was good. We were able to dialogue with student and teacher. Almost like it is with my college online courses. I was impressed. This was good." - Priscilla Estes
