Kelly,
At this point in time, slightly brain dead, I would have to say that your rationale sounds fine to me for using this assignment in order to learn about the field in question. No criticism or questions at this time.
Kelly: I agree with you that online environments are easier for some students to express themselves. Besides, given the prevalance of e-commerce, I think it is also educational for students to equip themselves with the most updated techonologies.
