Course Reviews

  • Bernadette Diangson
    The course taught me to become an informed citizen and critically literate; that I should be socially connected and respectful of diversity and differences among people; and that I should be ethically responsible and engaged as a human. Inevitably, this course is essential, especially in today's society where we should not only think of ourselves but, also others. I hope to pass on my learning in this course in whatever way I can. Thank you for this opportunity.
