I really enjoyed this course! It consisted of ~17 modules, and each had a similar but slightly different mixture of work (lectures, primary source readings, textbook, documentary episodes, etc.)---however, nothing was ever too much. The assignments were majority discussion posts (150-200 words), plus a 3 module-based assignments (which you had a choice of which modules to do for, and which prompts to answer), and the final assignment. All were incredibly easy, and nothing was too intensive. Everything is asynchronous, so you can truly do the course with any timetable! My only recommendation is to make sure you stay ahead or on time with the course, since most of the modules are released in batches you can't do the full course super quickly---but it's easy to fall behind. Enjoy this course, I did!
