“Takes very long time .could be done shorter without multiple repetition and modules can be consolidated to save time”

“Appreciate that there is auditory, visual, & text to get in formation across. Didn't like that the module audio/video had to loop through multiple times to "run down the clock" for some lessons.”

“it didn't I found the course to be to difficult especially for older generation, and if fail a module one don't know what questions one had wrong and have to watch the whole thing over again, and unlike final exam module test questions are not in line with important parts of the module.”

“I didn't like how I had to retake the whole module after failing the quiz. The way the content delivered was good but you need to emphasis the points on the test more.”

“Well I was very frustrated bc of the course. It was very time consuming. The final exam was great! Even better when you pass! Thank you”

“I find you can review the content in most lessons much, much quicker than the the time they allocate to it which makes the course take a lot longer than it needs to be since you can't move on before the timer's up. You spend a lot of time just watching a timer waiting for it to expire so you can move on. Set aside some time for this... it's definitely not quick.”

“I think this took a lot more time to go through each lesson, each quiz and the final exam than expected or required!”

“Great program. I was more than disappointed to read the book for a week straight only to find out I had to spend 5 hours doing the program online with out the option to just write the exam.”

“Self-directed layout. Multiple media options to choose from. The time requirements were a bit frustrating in that some pages required you to stay well beyond the video/audio were done, let alone being able to read the text much faster than the allotted time. I get the need to use the timing so people don't click right through, but it shouldn't be longer than the provided media for each section.”

“The content and how it was presented in videos was very easy to understand. The state-specific information was interspersed at the right time. However, every new lesson, I had to scroll down to get the whole video on my screen (using a MacBook Pro 15" screen and Chrome ). Also, the timing of the video did not coincide with the timing of letting you go to the next lesson, so the video would start repeating itself and I waiting until I was able to move to the next lesson. Finally, the questions weren't always the best. For example, if you teach that navigation rules can be broken to avoid danger, then make sure you don't have a question that says, "Why must navigation rules always be followed?" with no choice indicating they can be broken to avoid danger. (Perhaps that example wasn't on the quizzes/test, but it servers as a proper example of what I experienced on a couple questions).”

“It was nice to be able to study the material at home and I thought that the quizzes at the end of each module were good. Being able to write the final exam in front of my computer was a good and relaxed way to do it. However, I found the study sessions were much too lengthy and believe that I would have been better off to have the book while doing the online course. I will be purchasing the Boatsmart book and keep it on my boat for reference.”

“Good Website”

“Lots of good information but at the same time a bit redundant some modules tell you about the same things as others do. Most of it is common sense and if you don't have that then you probably shouldn't be driving. I would recommended boat smart to a friend only because you have to have it to drive a boat (government money grab) the only usefull thing is the navigational and right of way modules in this course, to spend a few minutes teaching ppl to use soap and water to clean a life jacket is a waste of time, maybe clean up your guy's videos course and delete the stupid redundant stuff that wastes time”
