Do you prefer your weekly readings embedded in the activities assignments or aggregated all together under a readings' classification. Maybe it's just me, but it is driving me crazy that the readings are not incorporated into the weekly activities. Not only am I spending alot of time searching for the reading, but I am also printing off the wrong reading since many readings are by the same author. I find this organization requires more of my time. Maybe this organization might work better if the readings' classification was divided by Week 1, Week 2, etc.., or maybe I just need better organizational skills.
Was wondering how other people felt about this setup.
I prefer them embedded in the weekly activities. It makes it much easier to have access to them when you're looking at the assignments. As you said, having to go to the readings page can be confusing. Your suggestion of a "readings page" broken down by week would simplify things for students. I would also appreciate consistency. Sometimes the readings are available on the weekly assignments page and sometimes they are not.
