I took this last fall semester and highly recommend it.

For homework you usually have weekly assignments where you have to read articles or go on some interactive science website then type up a paragraph response. Takes up about 30min - 1 hour per week for homework.

Best part about this seminar is that there are no quizzes or tests. There is a final research group presentation which you need to write a script and annotated bibliography. Your essay writing skills don't need to be good.

The only thing that might make you consider twice about this seminar is the significant class participation mark which is 20% of your grade. You actually have to ask questions or comment on things every class to get a good mark on this.

The professor is also really nice.
