This class was pretty interesting, and I appreciated how the lectures were formatted more like a seminar/graduate-level class. Guest speakers were brought in for many lectures, which gave the class a pretty well-rounded view of the topic. Discussion quizzes weren't hard and covered basic topics talked about in lecture & reviewed in the discussion. The final paper was a good practice in scientific writing and thinking critically about the class subjects.

Took this class asynchronously, lectures were easy to follow and it was cool how they invited guest lecturers every week. There were weekly multiple choice quizzes and the midterm/final were papers (create an experiment and relate to lecture material) that weren't graded too harshly. Final presentation was presenting the purpose, methods, results, etc of a relevant paper.
