Students in this small class praised it for having an experienced and helpful instructor who treated them like journalists and showed them how to write stories on scientific topics. Students’ issues with the course included a belief that the course’s final assignment, which required students to contact experts for interview was somewhat intimidating. Suggestions for improvement were few though some students disliked that the course met on Friday evenings as it could interfere with other plans they had. Prospective students should know that students found that success in the course required them to have to be willing to write regularly and be prepared to accept and adapt to criticism.
