New LIB-495 format review, also compared to bus-421 - posabsolute - 10-04-2020 I am about done with the lib-495 online capstone and wanted to review and compare it to the bsba capstone. So my cliff notes are: Felt intimidated at first, a lot of English major, being a CS major, I thought hmmm, this is going to be different. I had my topic in stone before starting the course, this saved me a lot of time. Online discussions are such a drag and useless; they don't know your topic; most don't answer if you ask a question, a necessary evil for easy points. I completed my entire thesis in 3 weeks, be careful accelerating; not all mentors are ok with that. It felt like much less work than the BUS-421 capstone with a (5 ?) case studies and a final project. So I will end up with probably an A and, at worse, a B. You do 4 assignments, take professor notes, and assemble the final paper with your 4 assignments. You have to do a video presentation about your project of you with slides; the software they provide is actually pretty good; it was easy to use. Besides that, there are the 2 ETS tests, which examine both your general and major knowledge. It's not clear how they grade those, because participating should give you all the points. All in all, I much preferred the BUS-421 capstone because I connected with the material, and I found doing the case studies pretty fun, but it was much more work. Not that LIB-495 is a piece of cake, but in my opinion, choosing the right subject makes all the difference. A big thanks again to this community; I would never have completed my BACS without this forum. RE: New LIB-495 format review, also compared to bus-421 - Ideas - 10-04-2020 Congrats on your BACS! New LIB-495 format review, also compared to bus-421 - Lacedonia4 - 10-04-2020 On point # 3, was wondering if no one answers your question, does your discussion contribution still count? Do you still get your points?
