Help can be found just about anywhere. The Generational Community Classroom is a very wonderful idea. Having present students see past student's work is very educational. Every year, computers are changing and new technology is advancing. Though there are advances, some basics still apply.
Students can learn different things from past students.
I am glad to be a part of the generational community classroom. Keep it up Dr. James. The advice I would have to Dr. James is to be more involved with the students in the labs. In the beginning, I had a hard time figuring out what was going on in class. It would be a lot easier if some classes were conducted in the labs.
