Grading is generous and not always predictable; some students find it easy to get an A- or higher.

Assessments include two reflective essays (500+1000 words each), a group poster presentation, and an individual reflection essay of about 2000 words. There is no final exam.
The professor is described as engaging and helpful by some students, but others find the lectures boring. The teaching style can be humorous and interactive with Google Doc discussions.
Coast through the lectures if you're not interested in them; form a good group for the poster presentation. Use translation software during class if needed due to technical English terms.
