I'm taking this because TESU said it would count as an UL for psych and I thought I liked the assignment descriptions better than the ones from organizational theory in Study.com. But now I am thinking of just paying to take it on study.com. The exams are really frustrating. Many of the questions are neither aligned with previous types of questions nor with the text, and I spend a lot of time trying to mindread what the exam writer was looking for. Many also have multiple correct answers-- I have flagged as many as I have the energy to for Sophia to look over. Hopefully this is all because it's a new course and they will incorporate feedback, but it is frustrating to be one of the guinea pigs.
I think I just need to put less care into the exams and focus on the touchstones, which do look like they will be pretty fun. If I write to the rubric, it's hard to imagine doing as badly on them as I have on the exams. If the touchstones end up being graded the way the exams are common, I will switch to taking the similar class at study.com. For the classes I've taken at study.com, the grading has always been extremely consistent with the rubrics.
