"First, I found the format to be rigorous but appropriate and the readings to be very interesting. Second, I appreciated having an on-line community even if I didn’t always have time to jump into a conversation; I always appreciated being a part of it. Last but certainly not least, I want to provide you with some insight and direct reflection on the wonderful job by [my instructor]... I can whole-heartedly tell you that she went far above and beyond in encouraging and facilitating the development of our group and as individuals – which is quite a challenge since we never meet face-to-face to build a positive rapport is a real strength.
Furthermore, she provided the most thoughtful and detailed weekly announcements and synopsis of the material which encouraged and promoted our learning well beyond the weekly assignment. While fulfilling this state requirement was a heavy burden for the short period of time, working with [my instructor] made the task educational and enlightening."
