Hunter Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I downloaded Our Night Sky last night for $29.00. I've had my eye on the course for a long time and couldn't pass up the deal they offered me. I hit "buy" when I read a review of someone complaining that the professor was spending too much time on mythology.It's so often the "bad" reviews that make we want a curriculum :-) Has anyone completed this course and really taken the time to seriously study classical/naked-eye astronomy?

MorningGlory Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I hit "buy" when I read a review of someone complaining that the professor was spending too much time on mythology.It's so often the "bad" reviews that make we want a curriculum :-) This made me laugh out loud! I recently ordered the TC Geometry course because some of the reviewers were complaining that the teacher used a chalkboard and flipchart instead of computer graphics. All I could think was..."Ahhh...this is a course for me!" HeeHee! We have Night Sky but haven't used it, yet. I grabbed it during a sale and plan to use it in the future. Sorry I can't help you with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are currently using Our Night Sky. We just started - have only completed the first two lectures. In other words, too soon to tell how effective the course will be for us. I loved your comment on the "bad" reviews, how true! We usually plan our movie and documentary viewing based on the bad reviews.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
