Student Feedback
'I appreciated the fun and entertaining manner in which the course content was delivered. I took this paper as my final GenEd (was a bit reluctant to go 'off track' from my Commerce papers) and am so pleased that I took this course. It's challenged my way of thinking and helped me to develop my critical thinking and communication skills. Just an awesome paper taught by awesome instructors/tutors.'
'Feedback on discussion posts and assignments was really helpful, it gave me opportunities to improve and learn from mistakes or misunderstandings. The feedback was clear and concise so I was able to identify what I had done wrong.'
'I found the course challenging but the lecturer did very well in clearly outlining objectives and pointing me in the right direction when I had questions. The course was very organised in terms of assignments that allowed us to demonstrate our understanding of content. The lecturer is very passionate about this field and he did well in explaining the content in an understandable way.'
