Withdraw & take later?
posted Saturday, 18 April 2009
I am toying with the idea of withdrawing from a class and taking it in the summer. The deadline is today to withdraw. The class is DIVERSITY. Not the best subject in the world. It is taking up too much of my time & I am not spending enough time on the other classes I am taking.
Now this is a blended class, which means we meet once a week for two hours. Then we use the online discussion board as a class participation thing. Problem is we meet on Monday, our assignment is to read three chapters & write a 1-2 page discussion board comment BY THURSDAY at 5PM! THEN comment on two others BY SATURDAY, & then blog about your weeks reading & questions or thoughts by Sunday. If this was a traditional class, or other blended class I've done, we would have a week to finish the assignment. It is too much pressure.
But I have already completed 2 weeks; there's only six weeks. Should I suck it up or should I drop it? I have a case study due on an article that I don't understand. It's worth 20% of my grade :( I want to drop it, but I am torn.
