I think there\u2019s a bunch of flaws in the system. From what I\u2019ve heard, it\u2019s going to make the professors be more on top of working with the system and updating our grades, so they have to input that information. My teachers have told me that it\u2019s really easy to switch over to it. . . Of course it\u2019s going to have flaws, but it would be better if the professors worked with us more instead of just not giving us our grades. I think that was the biggest issue in ANGEL.\u201d<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Vanessa-R..jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"360\" align=\"Left\"\/>Vanessa Ras<br \/>\nLiberal Arts Major<br \/>\n\u201c[ANGEL] is horrible. I can\u2019t get into half of my classes. I\u2019ve worked with ANGEL now for over a year and it\u2019s not cutting it. It is too slow, I can tell it\u2019s too much for what the school can use, and blackboard would be much simpler. Most people are trained in blackboard, and people have used blackboard many times before. It\u2019s been around a lot longer than ANGEL. So that would be the best answer I can give.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/mike-P.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"360\" align=\"right\"\/>Mike Profitt<br \/>\nCriminal Justice Major<br \/>\n\u201cI\u2019m so used to ANGEL, I\u2019d rather just keep it the same. I haven\u2019t really checked out anything on eLearn. I\u2019d rather just stick to the basics, that\u2019s how I feel about it. I\u2019ve heard other things about it. I just started coming here last semester, so I\u2019m fairly new to it. I hope it\u2019s better. I mean, only time will tell. I think ANGEL is pretty easy to use, myself. I just have to look into eLearn to compare them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/DevinR-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"360\" align=\"Left\"\/>Devin Routson<br \/>\nBusiness Administration Major<br \/>\n\u201cIt\u2019s probably a good idea. ANGEL has been pretty buggy for various different classes that I\u2019ve had to use it for. It\u2019s had a lot of issues, a lot of different problems that they\u2019ve encountered. I think it would be nice to have a fresh interface to work with, especially something that\u2019s more updated. Maybe it won\u2019t have as many issues to deal with, so it\u2019s a good idea, actually.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Allison.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"360\" align=\"right\"\/>Alison McQueen<br \/>\nRadiology Major<br \/>\n\u201cI\u2019m nervous about it, just because I\u2019ve gotten so adjusted to ANGEL. I really like ANGEL. I\u2019ve never had any problems with it, but I\u2019ve heard people have had a lot of problems with it, and that\u2019s why they\u2019re switching over. I\u2019m just nervous about running a new system and switching over. I like how it\u2019s set up. . . I don\u2019t think it\u2019ll be worse, I just think it\u2019ll be hard adjusting to a new system, that\u2019s all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kevincopy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"360\" align=\"Left\"\/>Kevin McCartney<br \/>\n Medical Billing and Coding Major<br \/>\n\u201cI think anything would be better than ANGEL. ANGEL breaks down way too often, there\u2019s too many glitches, it\u2019s always hung up, sometimes it freezes, and I\u2019ve had it happen in a test. There\u2019s got to be something better. . . I would sure hope it would be better, I couldn\u2019t see it being worse. I don\u2019t think it could. I look forward to the new system.
