ACI Learning Reviews

I think the course is good. I'm just a little slow.

Some lab time were cut a little shorter than normal.

I do not know how to answer the question about "time allotted to the learning activity appropriate?" I am baffled about the practice tests that I have taken, I have done very poorly on the practice exams in subjects I thought I understood.

the course was good and a lot of information. i wish that the class was drawn out over maybe three or 4 weeks. some labs were confusing on test out, for someone that has never built a computer i felt lost when we had to plug in pins and connectors before i even had a clue what they were.

The instructor was well informed but this class is not for beginners or someone brand new to networks. Half of the time i was lost and i dont know if i will pass the assessment. This class should at least be 4 weeks long and not start at 7 pm and last until 11pm. People have full time jobs and most of the material is not mac friendly. As a matter of fact i could not do ANY labs because the program does not work with mac computers. And i dont have money to purchase a new computer in such a short period of time.

I wish I would have been in the classroom for this type of course.

More time is needed. Two weeks is not long enough to take in and digest the information.

This course should be much later in the academic journey for IT professionals. I just wasn't prepared and became lost very quickly. I would have felt more comfortable starting with familiar material, working through some labs on that familiar material and then advancing into more complex materials.

This course should be 1 week longer to slow down enough to allow for greater explanation of topics. Everything about this course felt rushed and was like getting fed with a firehose. Im not sure how much I will be able to retain for the test without SIGNIFICANT personal study. This was very reminiscent of "bootcamps" I have previously attended in my professional career.

The eBook references several labs in Boson NetSim which we didn't have access to. It was extremely difficult (even with a large monitor) to see what the instructor was demonstrating as we couldn't perform the lab ourselves. Many students complained of this very same thing. It is very difficult to learn commands if you're not making them yourself and seein the outcome of your inputs.
