I DO not recommend the online version of this school; it's the worst thing I have ever experienced. I had to take an online course, and the instructor kept changing instructions for assessments that were due. For example quiz 5 was due on 4/28th, and I had to read chapters 12 and 13 and a 48 page article; however, when I went to rake the quiz, he had changed the quiz number. So quiz 5 was not due on the 28th, now it was quiz 6, and i had to read another 60 pages plus a different article just within an hour. YES, I was checking the quiz link through out the day, and he changed it the a few hours of the quiz dealine. The same instructor posted a message that said students had 150 minutes to take the final exam, but when students entered the exam, they only had an hour and 40 minutes to finish the assessment. One student took an image of the instructor's message because that 150 minute post was deleted later. He then told students that because of the time discrepancy, he would not include the final exam grade in the the course mark, but to email him if learners wanted the grade added. In this graduate course, he had a hundred points of the final assignment mark for online multiple choice questions. To me, it's extremely rudimentary to have such standardized assessment in a graduate course; we should have shown our abilities by complaining essays and projects. In addiction, as working professionals parents, and students we need to have structure in graduate courses. in the end, I got a C in this course, which is the lowest passing for grade graduate courses. The university emailed me yesterday and said they have put a low grade hold on my account, and I will not be able to enroll in any future courses.
Update: I apealed their decision based on the fact that there was no structure in the course. They wanted proof, so i sent them the emails the professor had sent to his learners about the final exam.
Thank God they approved it.
There is no structure in these classes. One professor had other graduate students grading students' work and giving them feedback. The professor chose her own book as the coursebook. We had to review her book. I hope she cites the students' comments or ideas.
