Sanddrag,
What skills/talents is a student supposed to possess/master before taking this class?
What skills are students supposed to master during the class?
How is successfully completing the classwork supposed to affect the students' academic or social future?
I think having the answers those questions is necessary before we can help you choose the right tool to use while you do the job.
Blake
