The different trains of thoughts by different philosophers with regards to the varying degrees and axis of happiness, including the process of pursuit, the gratification of obtaining, as well as moving forward what does it mean for our mental wellbeing.
Accessibility and Assessment: -
Consistent small workload every single week, (even during recess week) and then quarter submissions and midterm submissions which were actually paced appropriately in increasing levels of intensity. Overall high commitment throughout the weeks with no chance to slack off but it is a good way to keep the module in check as it is always creeping on your back so you do not neglect in for too long at any time.
Manageability of Workload: 3
The workload is manageable at around 1 reading each lesson and with lessons twice a week. At the beginning of the module there are a few in-class and take home assignments that are quite light. There are three main essays to be completed for this module with increasing length and difficulty that you will be graded on. Each essay has a first draft and final submission. During each essay submission he requires students to attach a short reflection on the strengths and weaknesses of their essay.
