One of the worst things about Capella is that it doesn't integrate technology into its courses. There are no Power Point slides, no telecourses, no video feeds or rental tapes, etc. In fact, all you can expect to do at Capella is read and write (in the traditional, visually unappealing, and very boring way). There is actually very little teaching going on, except for what you are teaching yourself through your own efforts (reading and writing). You can expect to learn more from your fellow classmates than any instructor teaching at Capella. At least that has been my experience and I have taken 6 classes with 6 different instructors. Whatever you choose to write about in your discussion posts is fine. There are no corrections in your thought process or interpretations because there is no teaching going on. They make you use APA but it doesn't matter. Why? Because if you get your grammar and punctuation wrong, no one bothers to correct it. Again, there is no teaching going on. I just don't understand why quality instruction can't be provided by a university with no actual campus and high tuition rates. Can't somebody please summarize and highlight the important points in my text through, say for example, a slide presentation? How nice the staff and administration are is secondary to getting a proper and useful education. Don't you think?
