couple of my classes.”

Student Feedback
Q: Would you take another course using a resource like this one?
“Yes, because it saved me lots money not buying a textbook.”
“I left my books at home and just logged on to my CGCC account with my
smartphone and read the required reading while sitting under a tree
snacking on a sandwich. I loved it.”
“I felt that the information pertaining to the subjects we discussed was
more accurate than a text book. There were real life experiences and
people.
Reading a textbook for the purpose of memorization teaches us nothing. I
loved that I got to relate with the people talking, use the articles that we
were asked to use, and apply our knowledge creatively.”
