I think both the semester and linear course systems have their pros and cons, and my preference really depends on the context and the subject matter.
The semester system typically allows for a more balanced workload, giving students time to absorb material and engage with it over a longer period. It also provides opportunities for more diverse courses each term, which can be beneficial for exploring different interests and enhancing a well-rounded education.
On the other hand, the linear system can be beneficial for subjects that require deep focus and progression, as it allows for an intensive study of a subject without interruptions. This could be especially beneficial for courses that build on one another, enabling a deeper understanding of the material.
Ultimately, I would choose based on my learning style and the specific courses I am taking. If I need more time to digest the information, I’d prefer the semester system. If I feel confident and want to immerse myself completely, I might lean towards the linear system. How about you? What are your thoughts on the two systems?
