Very good because it is taught about all the basics of journalists. Various case studies also train me to be able to think more with the mindset of a journalist. I highly recommend this class.

I enjoyed this course. As I stated in my review of the second course, the instructors need to make sure the prompts for the peer-graded assignments match.

This course would be a little underwhelming on its own, but it works great as an introduction to the 5 course series.

The course is quite interesting, but I have not given it a 5 star because the quality of some videos is very poor.
