Winter 2026 - I took this class online and it was pretty straightforward. He speaks for 3 hours about the reading and it gets hard to stay connected but was a very nice professor who is understanding. Thus far we only have to write discussion posts and cameras are off in zoom. He provides readings which is cool.
