It was wonderful to feel like a literature student again. The course instructor was helpful and responded to my emails immediately, and the materials where easy to access and follow. I especially liked the unit outline plan assignment, as it is something I may use one day. I very much enjoyed not having to make any discussion board posts as well. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

I appreciated that this course was self-paced and included much student-choice. It was also helpful that it was so practical, and it was wonderful that I was essentially preparing a future unit while also gaining CEU credits. There was one section of the course where it was difficult to determine whether students were to read two or four articles to complete the course. Reviewing the directions under the "Secondary Readings" and "Completing the Course" to ensure they are the same and clear would be helpful for future students.

LIT-906 British Novels was a great experience, allowing me to read, think, and write at my own pace. The class challenged me to read classics I have never read before and examine them with a critical lense. Overall, a worthwhile experience that I can use to help me grow as an educator.

The syllables and detailed assignments for this course were set up in a way that was easy to follow and complete. The novel selection was impeccable and I feel that I gained so much out of the assignments; in particular, the literature response assignments gave me a new lens to focus my reading to analyze and better evaluate the novels I chose. The professor did an outstanding job of communicating and left no questions unanswered. This was the 3rd course I have taken with now with Elaine Reimer-Pare, and each one has been an outstanding experience!

THE COURSE HAD AN EXCELLENT FORMAT WITH APPLICABLE AND USEFUL ASSIGNMENTS. THE LIST OF NOVELS ALLOWED ME THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE NOVELS THAT WERE ON MY CORE LIST IN MY SCHOOL DISTRICT. THE INSTRUCTOR WAS PROMPT IN RETURNING CORRESPONDENCE WITH E-MAILED QUESTIONS. I AM TAKING ANOTHER CLASS WITH HER BECAUSE OF THIS.
