It's an interesting course for people who love to explore and investigate a topic or a word. The course shows a step by step process how one can proceed. The teacher guides how to pick up authentic information and leave out all garbage that can be available on social media. One good point I learnt is that how you can use different perspectives on the topic of your passion. It not only adds depth to your writing but also provides shades of emotion.
Explained very well by the teacher.😊
