Very informative and educational course, thank you!
by Maria M. on October 3, 2026
Thank you
by Jose D. on October 3, 2026
The class is very engaging and is a good opportunity to learn and go over statistics concepts.
by Crystal T. on October 3, 2026
Very good course if you have been exposed to Statistics previously. If this is a new course for you with no previous knowledge, then the course may take you a little longer to complete, but the content is easy to follow, so you will be fine.
by Nicole R. on October 3, 2026
As a lab manager this is reinforcing what i already know. There were some portions that i wasn't fully educated in that i found the course info confusing and slightly overwhelming, but ultimately i was able to figure everything i didn't already know from working in a lab the past 2 years out from the coursework provided. (I responded to the is this helpful portion that i personally found overwhelming for me)
by Scott M. on October 3, 2026
I really enjoyed taking risks with my writing during this course. I feel like I went from writing safe to in turn writing with my voice.
by Tristan S. on October 3, 2026
Compared to other Sociology classes at community or private colleges, this class is a lot more concept based, which allows you to learn about Sociology without a lens of bias from the ones who set up the class based upon their political or moral allignments.
by Roslyn W. on October 3, 2026
I love these courses. I don’t work so I’m able to move through them pretty quickly. One think I like about the touchstones is that it has really helped me with my writing. Going back to school at 47, I’m a tad rusty on all that. These touchstone have hopefully prepared me a little bit more for USM. Thank you so much for offering this learning site. This is going to mean a lot to my family once I earn my degree.
