Great course. Very interesting topic, well-presented, and lots of useful readings.
The information and coursework was perfect. The only negative for me was peer grading. The course was well presented and very helpful. The assignments were also very useful and helped to solidify the knowledge presented.
Very caring, personal educator. Thorough course on the subject.
