Simple question. What courses have you taken? I don't care where they were -- high school, college, seminars, workshops.

What was the course about?

Did you find it useful?

Was it an interesting course?

What was your purpose for taking this course?

What were your feelings after taking this course?

Is this something you plan to outsource in the future?

What kind of learning was done (textbook, group work, projects, etc...)?
_______________________________________________________________

Post as much information as you'd like. I'm just interested in hearing about what kinds of courses are out there, and what people think of them.

So far, I've taken Intro to Business, Entrepreneurship, AP Economics, and, currently, Business Law. These were all high school courses.

Intro to Business was probably the most useful to the majority of the world and was something that I think every high school student should be required to take, but it really didn't provide much in the area of what would help you start a business.

Entrepreneurship provided a little more specific small business owner information, but it was still very basic. A lot of fun group work, though.

I took AP Economics last year. It was the first AP class I had ever taken (and my last), but I did pretty well in it. It was split up into micro- and macro-economics. I did much better during the macro half of the year, but that might've just been because I was more used to the class and its expectations at that point. Regardless, it was a very interesting class. I learned a very good amount from it, particularly on the macro side of things. It makes the news much more interesting because now I have a better understanding of what is going on. I'd recommend taking an economics course to anybody who hasn't done so.

Feel free to post even if it's been years since you took any type of course. It'd be interesting to see how courses have changed over the years.
