First off, here's a nice background for a lesson on figurative language--and by background, I literally mean background.
And as for this course, I’m a huge fan. I’m a big supporter of the “learning by doing” method, especially when it comes to technology. The way the class is set up allows for a lot of hands on, creative work that we can individually adapt to our content areas. Basically, I feel like I get to do my own work while learning a lot of new programs and operating systems. The one improvement I suggest would be to have it a little more clearly stated in class what we are required to do—exactly what assignments are due when, etc., especially because it appears the original expectations have changed. This could be fixed by a single clear explanation in class. On the whole, I am enjoying and benefiting greatly from this course!
