  • I enjoyed this class a fair amount. It wasn't my favourite class in the world but the content was really interesting! There also wasn't an insane amount of work involved (midterm- 25%, group presentation- 15%, paper + paper proposal - 25% and 5% , and a final-30%). The midterm, paper, and final were fair/marked fairly. The presentation was easy to complete and to do decent on, but hard to do well on (it wasn't worth that much though). Other than that, this class was moderately easy and pretty enjoyable.
