HYBRID IS GOOD.

When I first took the so called English placement test and answered the one and only question, whether I want to take the English 101 - hybrid course I wasn't quite sure. Yeah I knew it said that half the classes are going to be online and half in class, but I wasn’t really sure what was going to be done online. On the first day of class when I was acquainted with the course by my professor, it did seem interesting but I still wasn’t certain as to what to do, until I logged on to BB vista and checked the criteria for "Week 1". I was now sure of what the course was about and how cool it was. Unlike the conventional English classes that meet 4 times a week and do the boring literature in class, this class is very unique, student friendly, intensive, and focuses on now.
As a business major, I believe this class is very useful. Reading articles about the current events happening around the globe and analysing the, makes it fun to read the articles which would have not boring otherwise.
On our blog, 32andchesnut, we write about the events that have been taking place, our opinions on the current world, for example Facebook. Such blog entries makes us see things from a different perspective and allows us to express our ideas to our peers and get feedback; it develops are communication skills and makes us smarter.
Our project made an ordinary event like a walk in downtown seem so vast; drawing out an argument about the American culture from it was really interesting.
Our book A n B teaches us how to express ourselves, improve our writing skills, analyse texts etc, and this contributes to are writing in our papers
In just 5 weeks, the English hybrid course has made me more expressive in my writings and made them better than they were at week 1. English hybrid is the best way to learn, and learn fast because of its intensive nature, and I am sure as the course progresses there will be a lot more to learn.
