Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
I would definitely recommend this course for anyone that is willing to actually do the work that is assigned for after class. That is the only way you will do well in the course. That being said, it is an amazing class that teaches so much about Latin America and the Caribbean that will widen your world views and possibly even make you want to continue your LACS studies. It really is an eye opening course.
Course highlights:
Before going into this course, I had no prior in-depth knowledge about this material. But once I started learning, it was an eye opener to so much information is not brought out in the media or in other history courses throughout schooling. Learning about many different cultures and their struggles is also a humbling experience.
Hours per week:
3-5 hours

Definitely do your homework, please do it. That is seriously the only way you will get all the necessary material for the class.
