We have an amazing group of students in class with diverse backgrounds and interests. When we met as a class, only about half the students participate. What can we do to bring all of your voices into the conversation? Leave a comment with your thoughts and ideas. (If you prefer to keep them private, send me an email.)

I think this is an awesome class and I think that you, as a professor, are doing all the right things to provide a fun, educational learning environment. I think the subject matter is simply something of personal taste and discretion, but personally, I thoroughly enjoy the material and wouldn't miss a class (or reading assignment/blog post).
Now that the class is over, I'd like to reflect on what I previously said. I wouldn't change a word of what I said! This class (ITEC-333) was by far the most entertaining, technologically enlightening class I've ever taken. Most definitely the best class I've ever taken at AU. I highly recommend Professor Melander as an educator and as a technology expert. In this class we had to maintain a blog, and rather than turning into a weekly chore, I found myself unable to stop blogging. I enjoyed writing my analyses, thoughts, and interpretations in my class blog. A few of the class labs attached to lecture times showed me neat features that can be included in a blog. I've definitely been able to pimp out my blog, drive traffic to my blog, and provide an enjoyable aesthetic to my blog. (For anyone interested, my class blog was eight-thirty.blogspot.com) I would take this class five times over if I could get credit for it. Technology is rapidly changing, and I'd love to take this class again in the future as new course topics emerge and are featured. No matter what, this class was fun, exciting, and never dull. We had a diverse student body as well. The class was small, which was great, and the students were very culturally diverse! Again, never a dull moment with Prof. Melander.
