Ernesto Peinemann Review of FLVS
things wrong with FLVS:
things wrong with FLVS:
1. you should never have teachers on an online program. you should only have a team of editors and a support team for questions. if you are willing to do an online program then you should know how to self teach. unless you are in a webinar do not include teachers.
2. an online course should not bring stress to the user it should bring challenges. challenges encourage the user to do more and try harder. while yes the challenges might bring a little stress they should never make the user want to quit.stress from FLVS is caused by the "choose your own pace" that they have.
3. "choose your own pace". the choose your own pace in FLVS is very faulty because your pace has to co exist with the teachers ( another reason why to not include teachers and make them editors.). a true choose your own pace would allow you to work when you can for a certain amount of time and remind you daily to work.
4. the DBA. Discussion Based Assessments as they call them are a very faulty way of assessing the user. normal assessments are fine but having to schedule a specific part of your day and week is not an efficient way of learning.
5. video assessments. video assessments are a very strange thing to include in an online course.
