I'm working on the beginning Wicca class, and most lessons will have LOT of content. Now, as a student, would you rather all of that content be on one page, or would you rather it be broken down into Lesson 1A, 1B, etc? I'd really appreciate your input.

For myself, I think it depends, if there's so much content that it spills over onto different pages, then, I think maybe it could be split into 1a, 1b, 1c, etc, but, if not, I wouldn't mind it being in one thread, but, that's just me.

I find that when content goes beyond one screen, it's better to split it up, because it makes it easier to read and absorb. Online people tend to have a touch of ADD, and having to scroll through paragraph after paragraph after paragraph gets entirely too boring.

i think it would be better for me if it were broken down, especially if you were to add little quizzes after each section...that way i could make sure i totally understood everything about that bit before going to the next...then, at the end, having all the bits come together and make one big picture...

Broken down into lessons, for the reasons others have said. :)

Thanks, all. I'm breaking the giant lessons down into smaller ones. :)
