I'm taking a class through Rio Salado, and I have a question for those who have also taken Rio's online classes. At the beginning of the class, the instructor posted that we may not use the threaded discussion feature or post anything on the website and that any questions are to be emailed directly to him. I found this a bit odd. Is this the Rio way, or is it just this instructor?
I've taken several online classes and we have always had discussion threads. I didn't realize how nice that was until I couldn't do it. I was considering doing Rio for nursing, but if this is the Rio way for all classes, I just think I'd miss the discussion and interaction.
