  • I took this course with Shannon Hartling, I love her and have been taking courses with her since first-year. However, I do not believe her classes are ever easy, she is definitely a hard marker but her lectures are very fun and engaging. All Shannon classes have similar structures, you have 5 weekly essays to complete, a group 80-minute presentation and a final 30-minute presentation and paper to write. Make sure if you take her classes to choose a good group, as her classes are very group-based. Overal, please take this course with Shannon, she is great but be prepared to receive a mark no more than 80%.
