I think it's nice for instructors to have course info online, but should still teach the material in class as well. | |||
For the CVM to incorporate more technology into students' learning, improved email service is necessary. The current CVM email lacks features and has too small of an amount of available space available. Such improvements could greatly modernize and improve education for students. |
