I know I gave off the impression that all I every wanted from any other class was to be able to choose the curriculum, but it seems to me now that depending on the topic, those kinds of freedoms are a bit too much. If you were in law school or if you were a pre med student it would probably be a bad choice to always choose what you want to learn, as you would certainly fail the bar or MCAT exams.

I agree. Sometimes those freedoms are too much. It is nice to find some sort of a balance between such a strict curriculum and such freedoms. I hope as we were able to have a better feel from last class that within the next following week we will be able to find that balance.
maybe it will help give you structure when you keep in mind that I assess you on the basis of your weekly performance. This would mean that at this point you've done half the work for the class. Since you posted a little more the first week, you get some credit for that. Which would mean I'd assess your effort for 2 weeks as 60 percent. Little engagement with reading, failure to do second assignment, minimal commenting on class blogs. 60 percent is a D.
doing better and more does make up for it; you should have 2 more posts related to assignments 1 and 2; and you should have interesting comments on at least 5 blogs,

I'll have to do better then, unless there is something else I can do to make up for it.
