I am a bit discouraged by the high level of technology that seems to be required to get full benefit from this site and the courses. Even the homework assignments in the "30 Days" text require the watching of videos. I, and I'm sure many more people trying to take this course, live in areas where high-speed Internet is simply unavailable at this time and for the foreseeable future. I can go to the local library and download some material using their high-speed Internet service but they do not allow the volume to be turned up (or headphones used) so I can't hear anything. If daily video presentations are a core element of the program, many of us are left out in the cold. In this age of technology it would seem that an organization with your resources could figure out a way to make the information available to everyone - not just those on the high end of the technology spectrum. Is there anything you can do to bridge the technology gap that seems to currently exist? Or is there already a low-tech option that I have not found on the site?
