  • Took this course online, consisted of weekly modules, two case studies, and three "timed" quizzes. Final was open book. By far one of the easiest courses I've taken at UW.

  • Most boring course I've ever taken. All raw memorization. Taking the online course will force you to watch boring decades old documentaries to have proper knowledge for the final.
