I have very much enjoyed it and hope for more. I needed more time per section, for various reasons, not just because I hoped to spend most time on it More...

I do not have much experience with networking. When I participated in the web board, I was answering More...

The main difference is the structure of the BOLD series and its operations lead by the management team's expertise. In addition the resources and the references are unique. Absolutely, the More...

I am really impressed with the idea behind the Rotisserie. It is a great way to accomodate busy people already overloaded with lots of information.

... the assignments are short and easy to fit in a busy schedule, and on the other hand if you want to stay in the rotisserie, you can't lag: you More...

The system is very good for encouraging intelligent commentary, but it does not stimulate community development as much as typical discussion boards. The content of the responses is better than More...

I hope you don't mind the vernacular in my title. But I've seen so many training-discussions peter out here in Old Europe, so it was nice to be egged on, More...

Claude,
Glad you enjoyed this.

Hi,

I enroled in this online program when it was midway through its course. Hence I never got a chance to fully participate in the online discussions.

Overall, I find More...

The Rotisserie discussions were great.  I enjoyed participating in them.  I would have liked more time to really digest and think about each area before being rushed to respond.  Since More...

I agree with the comments in the above post. This post caused me to think once more about the qualities of our online discussions.  I again want to say that More...

I like this idea, though I know from experience that the larger the class size, the more difficult it becomes to respond to everyone.  Perhaps, the instructor could post a More...

For the most part, I  quite enjoyed using the Rotisserie for this class. I felt that, as was likely intended, it did indeed cause me to participate more frequently than More...

Thank you so much for your helpful suggestions.  

We actually included chat in the first years of our online programs.  There are some limitations, however; the different time zones make More...

To respond to some of your points:

1.  I liked having an assigned question.  This made me feel like an integral part of the course, rather than most distance learning More...

i am afraid i joined the discussion far too late. so i can not make a contribution that would be appropriate. from what i see it looks quite good. good More...

Nevertheless, three assignments were enough to convince me that such an ordered discussion has important advantages over "free" ones, in that everyone has to speak up, as it were. Others More...

I like the concept, but it assumes you'll 'want' to respond to what you are being requested to respond to.
I think a simple what you like and don't like More...

Being part of this community,  i think the participants should respond to what is requested by the project leader. The system clearly identifies the procedures for active involvement and the More...

In fact I was impressed with the whole rotisserie format. At the beginning I have to acknowledge that it took me some time to get acquainted with the system. But More...

Please explain how you see the technology enabling cross thinking.

Rotisserie confused me initially. Even now I am not sure if I understand the small details of how it works. I was surprised that one of the discussions was closed More...
