7# Feedback on web 2 so far

Thought I'd post a few thoughts about the web 2 program so far. While it's fun to learn to use these applications I think the expectation that we would ony need 15 mins for each activity is way off the beam. Given the fact that most of us are trying to do this in work time, and that work related technology is not always fast or helpful, this estimate is not accurate and should be taken into consideration if the program runs again. The instructions for the various activities and the links aren't always obvious or helpful and one of my collegues suggested that it would be useful to have a teacher look at the program to make it more user friendly. This would also lower the frustration levels for those who are trying to make the program work. Also making sure in advance that the links and instructions do work would be helpful. We always berate teachers who set assignments for students without first checking that the answers are readily accessible and that the materials are available, the same should apply to the web 2 program.

Rita, I certainly can understand your concerns/comments. Unfortunately we all learn at different paces and some are able to spend more time exploring than others. On top of this everything is dependant on a fast reliable Interenet connection. Your comments are very useful and will certainly be helpful if we are able to do a similar project again
