“This online course was one of my favorite classes this semester because it was organized so well. I could clearly see the assignments I had to complete each week, and all outside material was directly linked on Blackboard. Dr. Fehlbaum graded assignments fairly, left useful comments on our work, and graded it in in a timely manner.”
