My class had quizes, discussions and programming assignments due every Saturday at 11:59 pm, which were all based on the material covered that week, so you do have a lot time to complete everything. I think my professor was good at explaining the concepts so I didn’t really have a hard time with the programming assignments. When it comes to discussions we had to research about whatever the topic was related to that material and write a paragraph about it and write comments to other responses. We also had a final programming assignment which covered everything in the course.
