Alright, I didn’t expect this one to stick with me, but Introduction to Sociology really caught me off guard.
At first I thought it would be one of those dry gen eds I’d just breeze through, check the box, and move on. I wasn’t looking for anything deep, just trying to get it done fast.
But the online study platform I was using, which was ACE and NCCRS approved, made it way more engaging than I expected. The structure, the examples, the way it connected ideas to everyday situations, it actually made the content click. I started noticing these patterns in real life, and suddenly it didn’t feel like just another course anymore. Really made a big impact in terms of keeping me engaged with the course.
I remember watching a documentary that touched on some of the same concepts I had just studied about social norms, group behavior, cultural differences, and I ended up explaining it to a friend without even thinking about it. That’s when I realized I wasn’t just memorizing things for a test. I was learning something that actually shifted how I saw the world.
What’s one course you didn’t expect to enjoy, but it ended up surprising you?
