CA 272 (online) is extremely well structured. The "lectures" are mostly reading, with some videos. Mary communicates well & often, and it's easy to do well if you keep up. Textbook readings are not required to do well on exams, especially because they are open note/online. The research paper can be a drag, but I overall recommend this class.Rate My Professors ↗
