The course was easy enough, the touchstone has taken a few days (although I could definitely have spent more time on it per day, but it just isn't interesting enough to want to do for longer than half an hour or so at a time).

Any update on this?

MAN-301 Principles of Management, UL, 3 credits. They gave a perfect score on the touchstone, which was just a powerpoint.

If you follow the rubric exactly it is really straightforward. The grade report they emailed to me was based on ticking off that each of the items was present, not the quality of the analysis if that makes sense. Like "did this person write down 3 of each SWOT items" Y/N, "did they have a source" Y/N. Websites and news articles are explicitly mentioned as being fine, use MyBib or something to put them in APA. 

Example:

"Internal strength 1: no reliance on external financing or investors allows flexible decision making re R&D investment (insert citation of company web-page where this is stated here)"

It was just sort of boring because you had to do it for the five forces, PESTEL and SWOT and tbh it got repetitive.
