Hello!
I'm preparing to enroll in the subject course and could not find too much information regarding the subject course online
I am seeking insights, or any "lessons learned" that anyone might be able to share.
It appears the workload is extensive as the course is only 8 weeks. I am also eligible to take the "Military LA" Capstone FWIW.
Thanks in advance!

If you go to the following link, and look up your course you will be able to view the course syllabus.

I found the Capstone course to be quiet simple, as it was nothing but a rehash of information from previous courses. However, you can fall behind if you don't keep up; 2 extensive researched discussion board post every week, a couple of papers, powerpoint presentation with voice, and a long extensive research final paper.

In my world, "Simple" + extensive researched discussion posts, papers, powerpoint presentation and a long extensive research paper = an oxymoron. :eek: :eek: :eek: (I won't mention that I've never even seen someone put together a powerpoint presentation let alone attempt to create one myself). :ack:
One Question - Are you able to access the full course assignments once you register - not the info contained in the syllabus, but the "real" required assignments?
Congrats to you and all others who have accomplished the amazing feat known as the EC Capstone!

Yes, once you enroll in the course, the course will open up at 12am in blackboard of the day the course begin, and you will be able to access all the "real" required assignments; they are listed in each weekly module in blackboard.
