Hi Phil, thanks for sharing some details about your class, it is very interesting to me.

It sounds like a really fun class! I think that it's a great idea to switch between different software packages - I think that you're right that it should benefit them and increase their "learning flexibility".

Well that's ok - I mean it is not required that you only have to use a tablet with MoI.

That would be really cool, I would love to hear their feedback!

I've put a lot of effort into trying to make MoI easy to use, and in a lot of ways this type of student introduction course is kind of an "acid test" for how well that is working.

You're in a great position to notice if there are any recurring trends with confusion about particular areas. If you notice anything that seems to be a common problem, please let me know!

I'm looking forward to it!
