29. Comments about the Course On-demand internet class, video conferening, they're all fresh things to me at the beginning of this semester, and now I got some ideas, knowledge of variety of Englishes I'm glad to join this course, the most interesting part is all the lectures are eye opener. If I have a chance, I will choose to continue learning through this project. I really learned a lot in this course. In this online lecture, I've learned many materials from the Internet. I'm also glad to meet and discuss World English with so many students from Asia. It's an interesting and comprehensive course.
30. Comments about the Course [Factors to Consider] Work is too much, we have lots of contents that Ss consider Projects are heavy for Ss. Spends more time than other subjects, but it is a useful course. various topics better, repetitive, affect students' patience and interest conflicting time schedule for live conferences, reduce the amount of group project Online lectures are too many. We don't have enough time to read and write lots of things. The subject can be more interesting.
