Having an online textbook that you don't have to carry around in paper is nice.

I wish I didn't have to experience it at all. It is such a pain to use and I'm not sure if it's really helping me learn anything anyways.

I'm fine with everything else about my Fitness for Life class and I signed up for it to motivate myself to exercise. What I didn't sign up for was dealing with an obnoxiously slow, busywork online course that makes me really annoyed and feeling like the class is a waste of time. I'm a busy student taking 5 other classes that are more important to me, I don't have time to read through a long chapter 3 times a week and answer 20-30 questions for each chapter. Not to mention, you have to answer 30 questions RIGHT before the assignment is considered 'complete' so that takes about twice as long as it should. So what if it's supposed to help my learning if it were more like a quiz where I was 'allowed' to get a question wrong I'd take a lower score in a heartbeat and move on with my life. It doesn't matter that much to me. And it's so pointless because it brings up new questions instead of allowing you to redo the ones you missed so soon you're looking at content that's not even in the chapter you studied. It's just a headache. I'm stressed out by it and it's not a class I feel I should be stressed about. I'm not sure what the pricing was like for my course because it was just lumped into my fees, but whatever I 'paid' for it I'm sure it was not worth it.
