The first week was great but the second week needs lots of work although it does have some good information. I think the drop in responses between the two weeks shows the need to bring the second half up to the level of the first. All the sentences about "in your school" need rephrasing for this online course. While the youth program looks wonderful the final round table is embarrassingly racist, sexist and classist and should be removed immediately or offered as an example of what not to do.
It would be nice if "Next Steps" could be a short follow-up module. Thanks you for offering this.

I really enjoyed the interesting ideas and concepts this gave me and it probably gave to the entire community who signed up for this. I am looking forward for more.
I want you to include Native Americans in this. Thank You!
Very disappointing. The material is very basic and very focused on U.S issues. The moderators seem out of touch to say the least. (I received a brief email on the night before the course ended from one indicating that she had "just checked" the quiz and it was working properly. This was reply to a concern about the quiz not scoring correctly that I had made 12 DAYS BEFORE, and 10 DAY AFTER THE ERROR HAD BEEN ACKNOWLEDGED in the discussion board and I took the quiz with a 100% result.
This is a great effort in addressing a crucial and burning issue. And it will bring definite positive results, I think this teach should be extended to all educational institutions, religious organizations and of course to politicians/business community.
Very well organized. Appreciated the opportunity to read and respond to other students and the diversity of the group. Wish there was a course on evaluating community organizing. Most of all, this course helped restore my hope for my profession and my ability to continue in it. Thank you.
Very insightful, and the resources are great!
Bringing new ideas on teaching, but the contents should be focused to the reality approach.
