Took online and while easy enough very repetitive and incredibly boring in my opinion. Every week was readings, discussion posts, short MC quiz, and journal entries with some other writing assignments sprinkled in throughout the term. You also had to read this book called 'The Assault' hated it but short enough. Prof was organized with the content and nice enough but also failed to give hardly any feedback until nearly the end of the course which was annoying.
