Week 12 Discussion #2
The Mission Critical website was useful because it seemed to resemble the textbook for the class. It bolded important terms and gave a few examples to back up the concept being discussed. I felt that the website was just an e-book type for the course textbook. This method is possibly better for most people because it can link you to topics quickly instead of rummaging through hundreds of pages. Furthermore, I found the exercises to be most useful in this website. I generally do not even attempt to look at exercises in the books mainly because they either do not have an answer to them or they do not explain why one answer is better than another. However, in this website, the exercises were helpful because it told me why one answer was a better choice than the rest. This further helped me understand certain concepts because it eliminates any doubts and questions I have.

Hello EsconeQueen!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, i enjoyed reading it. I do agree that the website really resembled the book, i thought it was just too similar that i felt like i was reading the concepts over again, which was time consuming in my opinion. But i do have to agree the exercises were very useful. I liked how if you got it wrong, it explains what the correct answer is and why, and i thought that was very useful. Again, great post. Very easy to read. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
