What did you like about the course?

Material was well organized and addressed several important topics.

What suggestions do you have?

Almost no interaction, however, the most valuable piece of information I received came from the other student, not from actual class content.

Lesson two was a real eye-opener for me. I have never thought about how safe my parents home is; you can bet my brother and I will look into your suggestions. The worksheets for both the medical and professional information will be useful as well.

What did you like about the course?

I am visually impaired, and the program was amenable to Zoomtext, a program that enlarges and audibly reads the subject matter to me. I am not able to read normal text in a book, which includes large print.

What suggestions do you have?

I would like to be able to change answers during the test. In Question #21 on the test The word "intestate" should be written as a single word. You had it written as "in testate", which is confusing and could cause incorrect responses. I would like to see more instruction on how to do cognative activities as well as higher functioning versus lower functioning activities. Do you have a course that covers activities?

IN this class i feel like the other classmates were a big help and the instructor was right there responding to my requests.

What suggestions do you have?

I find that the audio is important and puts more of a bond between the student and the instructor and information of personal experience. There are just some of us out there that learn better with hearing and watching, rather than reading.

    I think we did a little of this in the beginning of the class. Everyone can put the concerns they have with their parents. There may be other students who have experienced the same concerns and might have some insight on how to handle. I was doing the classes, but I didn't always have discussion pertaining to the class topic.

    What did you like about the course?

    great information - however, my parents both have cancer and are struggling to live on their own on a farm without asking anyone for help. I have found that my taking this course has made them very defensive and they are concerned I am going to take over their independence. They are both in their 60's and don't consider themselves "aging parents". I would have liked younger parents addressed more.

    What suggestions do you have?

    One thing about Web based courses is that it is all on your own - which has its advantages, but at the same time, I would have preferred there be a scheduled time each week that we would have done a group discussion when we were all on-line at the same time. This is what I expected it to have. Once it was all on my own, it got put on the back burner. Had there been a scheduled time I needed to be on-line each week, I would have been there.

    Find a way to get the students to participate in more discussions. I learn as much from reading about others issues as I do from the lesson materials.

I had never taken a course like this and the info was invaluable not only with the class but with the every day use of the internet. Thank you!

    What suggestions do you have?

    Maybe posting lesson once a week instead of two but at the same time it kept me aware that I needed to check on the site at least two times a week thus keeping me interested and going.

    I really don't have any suggestion for improvments. This course was so full of information that I will go over my saved documents again so I can see if there are things I may have missed. I really enjoyed taking the class.

    The reason I didn't give it better ratings, was that it was too basic for me. My only "improvement" would be to somehow identify the level of the course. I'm a psychologist & have some expereince with caregiving. The course was geared to people with little or no background/sophistication.

    The course provides so much useful information - both written and links to websites. It will take a while to go through it all.

    Much of the information applies to my parents, but a lot is also useful for me to know for myself - to prepare for my own retirement and old age.

    The instructor worked very hard to get everyone to participate in class discussion.

    What suggestions do you have?

    I'm not sure why it was so difficult to get students to participate and contribute to the discussion. The instructor did all that she could to encourage us.

    It was a small class, and I'm sure people are busy, or some may not be comfortable sharing anything personal with strangers. I felt reluctant at the end to post messages. This is only because when I did post replies, the other student never acknowledged it.
