Since this is my first semester in Graduate School, everything is new to me. I have not had any reference points, really, for the quality of my classes.
However, I felt from the beginning that I was getting a good deal in COM502 Graduate Seminar. There was a 30 page syllabus--Wow! But, it was clear. I appreciated that.
My other class, Assessing and Teaching Communication Arts has not been so clear. I've been confused from the start on the content of the course since the textbook is an interpersonal communciations text called "Looking Out, Looking In."
While I've enjoyed the content of the book and the discussions and learned a lot already that I'm applying to my life, the class is dissapointing in that it is not addressing the subject matter found in the course description.
I'm also finding thinking about writing two, yes--two, 30 page book reports, with out a grading rubric, overwhelming. I've been reading the books all semester, so that's not the issue. I've just never written something of this length before--let alone without much guidance.
I may say more thoughts about this, after the papers are written.
