This class was online when I took it, but professor Nu'Man was wonderful! He was a good lecturer, but his lectures did come straight from the textbook. He was very kind and open to criticism, and was also adamant that he really valued our insights on how to make the course as valuable as possible. Your grade is dependent mostly on two or three things which can be stressful, but they weren't grueling assignments I would say. I highly recommend this class and this professor.
