Target Audience: My future Health students

2 points: Well organized and easy to follow

Here is the address to my site. Thanks!!

Semester as a whole

Overall, this semester has been pretty good for this class. I definitely learned a lot of new cool things, especially from google. However, I think that although they are very cool, I will never use them again. I don't have a lot of time to surf the web or add all new apps or whatever. I was very intrigued by them but it's not anything that I'm going to continue to use. The class itself was laid out pretty well. I liked the weekly things to do, but I thought the discussions got a little monotonous and I felt like I was writing the same thing for each different discussion. It seemed like busy work for me. Other than that, the class was pretty good.
