Good advice to keep in mind

Here’s some advice from previous participants in this class, offered through the final section of their portfolio:

• don’t worry if this class feels strange to you Δ for me it was a very unfamiliar way to learn, but it works!
• don’t get behind in your reading, it’s fun Δ and getting too far behind means that you won’t understand what’s going on
• if you can do the reading and book quizzes ahead of time — do so!
• take Mary up on her offer of feedback Δ she’s willing to look at anything you want to share
• don’t hide your questions, some of the best discussion we got into came from what somebody thought was a “stupid” question
• take course books with you to the bus stop (they’re great reading to do even when you’re not very focused)
• if your small group is having problems, ask someone for help
• don’t blink, or you’ll miss it!
