I just finished GLOBL 001 right now, which is the first half of the series, and plan on taking GLOBL 002. I suspect they're kind of similar. It's not perfect - the people who gravitate to GLOBL tend to be very interesting, and I wish we had more discussions with each other! And I wish we went deeper into the controversies regarding different topics. But it was, overall, a very educational course. Professor's supplemental material and the textbook worked well together. The assignments are really low stress. That means there's more time to explore the topics that matter to me, and as I said, I think most GLOBL students are already motivated to care. I also lost internet service for a long while this semester and the course was flexible enough to have me recover.
But that's GLOBL 001 not 002. Sorry I can't give a direct answer.
Hello! I took Internet GLOBL-001 with Mary Conroy not 2, But I also assume they are similar. The class material was interesting and the overall difficulty of the class was about standard for college. The work was engaging and made us think about the world and how we all interact with each other. The class also brought up pivotal issues that have plagued us in the past or plague us today. All in all the class was engaging and interesting, but it was all about reading from the textbook and doing the work. No lectures were ever given and the teacher contacted us all only twice the entire semester. One Major issue I had with the class was that the teacher ended the semester without telling us our grades for our final paper, so its still up in the air as to what my grade is at the moment.
I took the course fully online from AUG- OCT. The class was not very time consuming or difficult. I spent about 1-3 Hrs a week on the assignments and reading.
I didn't enjoy or hate the class and personally I do not feel as I got much out of it.
Hi Vina,
I haven't taken the course, but I will be on the lookout for someone who has! :)
Unfortunately, the college will not allow for Associated Student Government to have access to the contact information for students that have taken the course in the last semester. Hopefully, we are able to use alternate methods to contact the student body (such as this forum).
