Thanks for posting this!
When I downloaded the PDF with course info / syllabus for one, I noticed the Sophia logo on it, and when I read the description, it also seemed to followed the Sophia format (i.e. "Milestones", etc.)
Do you happen to know if taking "regular" (undergrad or grad) classes at Capella are like taking a Sophia course?
RE: Capella MEd Flexpath Teaching & Learning - $7200 and up - bjcheung77 - 08-20-2020
Regular classes shouldn't be similar to Sophia.org courses, these are developmental or professional education courses. Capella and Sophia systems in place for learning are different, these developmental courses may share the same system Sophia uses but I would guess Capella uses a different approach to their regular online courses, I think the flexpath is also different. You should confirm with Capella just to be on the safe side.
