    I agree. It wasn't hard to pass. It counted as an applied professional credit without a grade, even though i got 94/100 on the final test.

    I did learn something about using Styles when giving credit to sources. Not harldy worth the mega bucks paid for this 1 credit course...

    I was going to take this class, but after speaking with an Excelsior counselor she told me that I could take this course with Central Texas College and they will accept it. It's cheaper and is around 5 days long vs. however long it takes with Excelsior. And of course if you are military, it will be free. Just thought I throw that out there.

    Information Literacy is a joke. I studied for a few hours tonight and passed the final with an 86. It's a waste of $250 and costs more than cleps which award 3 credits. I'm just glad it's done. Didn't learn anything useful though.

    info lit would be a good course for my 98 year old great grandma. She can remember when cars came out so computers machines are scary and little is know about them to her. Anyone born after 1975 should have a pretty good idea as to how to find stuff using a computers.
    waste of 4 hours. BUT it is a good way for excelsior to get some more money out of us, basically you paid 250 to access their website, mainly b/c there was no teacher. that is zero over head and all profit baby.
