Reading List—History of the American West |
|
It is important that the student allot sufficient time to complete all the assignments. On average a student should be working two to three hours outside of class for each hour in class. That means for a three-hour history class, you should be working six to nine hours a week outside class. Since this is an online course, students should be working on their own at least nine-to-twelve hours a week. That means taking effective notes from the reading, exploring the websites posted on my website, and exploring the Internet on your own to bring new material to the learning process. |
