STS 4500 sucks but it wasn't too bad with professor Rogers. Her grading breakdown was 40% exam 50% prospectus and 10% participation. The class met twice a week, Tuesday was online and Thursday was asynchronous. The homework each week was to write a discussion post, "do" a reading, and take a 2 question quiz that you can usually ctrl+F the reading to find the answers to. The exam is very easy and she gives very useful study materials so studying is either optional or very short. Because there are only like 3 grades in the class it is annoying to not really know how you are doing grade-wise. Also, I found her organization of course materials a bit confusing as to where things were located. She was very quick to respond if you have questions though which is nice.
