Provider: ASU EA
Course: SOC 101 Introduction to Sociology
Course content: The material consists of video lectures, assigned reading, Cerego, weekly quizzes and weekly posts to a forum on different topics.
Final exam format: The final exam was multiple choice and it was based on the last three weeks of class. That was the only proctored exam.
Final exam content vs course content/practice exams: Everything in the quizzes and exams was based on assigned readying, Cerego, and the lectures.
Time taken on course: Took only a few hours per week to go through everything.
Familiarity with subject before course: I’m a few classes away from an Associate’s and I have close to 80 credits of college work. I have seen some of the ideas discussed in other classes.
Pitfalls, high points, things others should know: This was my first ASU EA class and I took it out of curiosity not really thinking that I had the time to complete it since I was taking classes from a local community college. I enjoyed this class and learned things on conformity and other subjects.
1-10 Difficulty level: I found this class relatively easy sometimes I didn’t even watch the videos just quickly read the transcripts. I did study for the Final and Midterm by going through previous quizzes. Posting answers to a question from class and commenting on other people’s posts is part of your overall grade.
Final grade: I ended with a 88% in this class since I missed a quiz or two. I did not take this class too seriously at first because I didn’t think that I was going to complete it. I thought that there would be essays involved like many of the intro classes at my local community college. This being a four-year university I was expecting work that was a bit more rigorous then my local community college.
