I did it online and it was a pretty dragged on class. It was fairly simple, just do the readings and writings and then discuss in class- But it is a 2 and a half hour course that feels forever. If you plan to take it, just stay on top of your work and don't fall asleep :)

Class had some interesting material in it. I enjoyed the final paper. Prof Liu is very smart and knows a lot about the subject. He's very sweet and approachable during office hours. However, he tends to talk a lot and the class can be a little boring because of this. Fufills lots of requirements and the grading is pretty fair. The workload also isn't bad--there's lots of assigned reading but most people did not do it all.
