I just started my first course last Monday. I'm taking the Eastern European: Languages and Alphabets course right now. I've been trying to determine if there are actual due dates on the assignments for each module, because so far I haven't found any, though I did just now see a Course Completion Date for the entire course. Where would I find the specific due dates for each module if there are any?
Welcome Alana!
Hi, Happy to meet other students. I joined this group since I just started taking a few classes. I would like to know what percentage is awarded to the homework for each module and the final exam to then give a final score. Thanks
I have been completing the Social Media Tools for the Wise Genealogist, and am wondering if I have a general suggestion for courses, would I suggest it on the Student Suggestions & Recommendations section?
Is there a post somewhere of the recommended order of courses, both for prerequisite purposes for the compulsory courses, and guidance with the elective courses? I know we don't HAVE to do it any particular way, but it would help plan to see something that says "think about doing x and y before taking z class".
I do know that when I tried to sign up for "Skills: Transcribing, Abstracting & Extracting" the page mentioned you should have taken Met 1 and Met 2 first. However, I'm referring to some kind of master list or flowchart. Or even just a list of which electives are Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced level courses, without having to click through every course offered.
Also, I was reading the posts in the NIGS FB group and someone further along than I mentioned it's better to take Analysis & Skills Courses at the end of the level. That's the kind of stuff I would like to know about.
Thanks!
