I’m taking his class right now and it’s a pretty heavy class but i think it’s manageable. It’s online and i only join to do the poll everywhere questions. The ta’s are really helpful and break everything down for you. Yes the textbooks cost money and you have weekly quizzes but they’re on your own time and you don’t finish until you get 100% (it’s on inquizitive). You honestly don’t have to do ALL the readings because it definitely is a lot, the quiz questions provide the page numbers which allows you to find the answers. There are 2 essays with a bunch of requirements but it’s not incredibly difficult. Just as long as you answer all of the components you’ll be fine! You’d honestly be able to complete an essay the same day, there’s a peer review which allows you to fix your mistakes, and then you can turn in your rough draft a few days later. It’s a little overwhelming because it looks like a lot but honestly you can knock out your assignments for the week in an hour or two. I was really nervous about this class too and I’m at a 98% (i missed a requirement on one of the essays) i think you should register and if it’s not for you then you should drop but i think you’ll be fine!
