About the reading

After taking this class I feel as though the system worked very well. The reading assignments were never overwhelming or too time consuming. I liked how one version of each epic was shorter and allowed the reader to understand the general plot, then the other version was longer with more content. I thought the balance of reading, writing, and commenting was extremely well balanced and I never thought I was doing too much of any one of those. If I was advising students for next year, I would tell them to do a little bit for this class everyday. At that pace, it is possible to finish the class ahead of schedule and be done by the time finals come around.
