I'm excited to get to know all of the websites introduced this week. The PBL Explained video from PBLworks was awesome! I feel like I finally have quick examples to explain what class I am taking!

I came into this class without any understanding of the negative aspects involved with PBL. I was seeing only rainbows and couldn't find a dark cloud in the sky. Now after reading this weeks' articles, I see that everything isn't cupcakes in PBL!

This website is fantastic!!! It has so many phenomenal lessons! Too bad it is so expensive. I would hope that the school would buy the account for the teacher, but I wouldn't expect that to happen.

I gave up and dropped this class. It is too much for a 10-week session, especially while taking a second course. I would love to be able to take this again during the regular semester, but I just don't think there will be time :(
