This is by far the best course I have completed on National College. I have enjoyed the content of all courses I have completed. However, this one gives you time to review and reflect before the end of each module. There is the opportunity for role-plays and the chance for one to be a part of the session, rather than being talked at. I highly recommend this course for all well-meaning citizens of this world.
