ALIGN Courses

[laughter]

She took the course after she was enrolled with TESC. She wasn't into taking CLEPS so she doesn't have the experience to compare it to them. However, it was difficult compared to all the other courses she took at two community colleges and two four year colleges. The grading rubric was terrible. Long, time consuming assignments were worth only 4 points so the only grading options were perfect (4 out of 4) or a "C" (3 out of 4). She was always an "A" student and had never gotten a "C" on an assignment in her life so she was appalled. When she mentioned that during the course evaluation, she was told that others had expressed concerns as well and that they were thinking of changing things. She was not interested in ever taking a course with them again so she doesn't know if they did change things or not.

Thank you very much for your feedback. I checked the course syllabus for one of the courses I'm considering, and it seems like the 4 point scale is still in place. So, I think that's a no-no for me.
