Summary and Reflections: 
Fall B:  I missed the threaded discussions. I miss interacting with the students daily.

Student Comments:
Fall B:
She was VERY good with the communication. She was always there for us when we needed her! ANY hour of the night or day we could call her. She gives us weekly reports on how we are doing which helps us to stay focused(another way). She also posted several different articles in the library for the class to help us learn.

The major strengths to me were the email that were sent from professor McCall. She let you know when you were ahead of schedule or when you were behind on schedule. Also if you needed help with anything just call her and she was available.

Overall: 3.61 out of 4
