I think a LOT of advice/comments in this forum will be a bit out of date because of the change to Brightspace. The posters here have been awesome, but the move to Brightspace seems to have changed things quite a bit
For all you guys who did your UMPI classes pre-Brightspace, your timing and challenge level was probably a different experience.
Brightspace definitely seems to have made things tougher and longer.
I took one semester before Brightspace, and now I'm using Brightspace, and the courses seem much much longer now.
I honestly don't see how anyone could do the whole "10 classes in 10 days cuz I stayed up all night!" thing anymore.
The UMPI business class I'm in, has textbooks (.pdf format tho, and not searchable) that we have to read chapters in, videos, lectures, etc. Not super impossible or anything, but definitely more involved than before. Just the two chapters I've had to read so far have been pretty long reads and I haven't made it to my first milestone yet. I still have a bunch more to do before I get to it.
