I have to admit that I was very lost when listening to the first lecture. Unfamiliar content plus no written material made the learning difficult. I asked for the PPT and it was made available. However, I never went back to lecture 1 due to time constrain.
Today I read the reading and listened to lecture 2. With the PPT in front of me, I felt I was more in tune with the lecture and actually enjoyed it this time. Something as small as just putting up the PPT can make a big difference in learning. Talking about universal design!!!
Because I had the PPT in front of me, and maybe the contents are something more familiar, so maybe I was more at ease while going through the lecture. I actually clicked on all the links leading to additional materials. However, I did not actually read any of them. I wonder if anyone in the class did. Maybe this could be a good post-class survey question.
Some observation about the reading material – very dry, academic writing style, suspect not very accessible to general readers
Some observation about the PPT – very busy background, interesting selection of the Buddha statute that resembles a westerner – good choice!
