CollegeDuque is such a caring and funny professor. The main problem people have with him is that there are short online open-note quizzes due before every class and reflections due every Friday and Sunday. If you can get over that, this is such a breeze, I could not recommend it more!
So much busy work and he doesn't talk about anything useful at all
So much busy work.
Professor gives enthusiastic lectures and the materials are inspiring. However, the workload is TOO MUCH. 2-3 quizzes a week, a very long learning report per week, 2 lectures, 1 section, and so many readings. If you don't mind the heavy workload, take this class.
