Would you want other classes be taught ITS style? If so, which classes and why. Personally, I think one or two of my classes could strive in an ITS environment. I think the idea of ITS Civics wouldn't be too bad. We could do contracts like the overview lecture, independent learning, textbook hw, and glencoe quizzes for civics (if one actually exists).

I am personally starting to like ITS. It seems more fun and also more productive. I also think it would be interesting if we did ITS in civics. But I do not think it would be a good idea to have ITS in Chemistry. That to me seems more challenging than it is now!!!!!!! But for now I am happy, that I have at least one ITS class.

I went to an ITS-type school for all of middle school, and while having one class this way is fun, having five to six classes taught with the ITS system can be frusterating. I for one would rather not go through that again now that the subject matter has become more challenging than what we were learning in middle school. I'm grateful for my one ITS class, but one is plenty.

I wouldn't mind having ITS in all of my classes. I can really improve my time management skills and work at my own pace which I really think helps me study better than being pushed to get things done. ITS is something new for me this year and something I wouldn't mind doing for the the two years left of highschool.

I am nervously awaiting for my first ITS unit in Chemistry! I have no idea if it is going to be a disastrous situation or a decent one! I think this is a great opportunity for students to try out the ITS system in another class besides Physics. I am hoping for the best! How do you feel about it?
