I think this one a very important course especially for students, but it doesn't really give you clear insight on the key materials. Instead the instructors just give the students a couple of links to use for citing resources, etc.

The course grade relies heavily on grading, and receiving grades, from peers. However, it is hard to stay motivated when the majority of the peer-reviews are for incomplete or missing work.

A lot of content was something that youd invariably learn just by googling a bit. Nothing new

I was not impressed with the promotion of Purdue OWL and EasyBib for formatting and referencing. I personally believe the bibliography creation feature in MS Word, in a series of formats, is extremely user friendly and much more effective for quick research paper documentation.
