Best Research Methdlogy course at the Introductory level.

By Richard Rego on 8/26/2020

I was disappointed with this course. Felt like a let down.
Someone reading from somebody's else' notes felt like some nursery rhymes for kids. I am sure if I had the course meant this type of poor quality, I would have been much better off reading a couple of books.
