Human Rights · Columbia University
I did not learn anything in this course. The course was poorly structured for a Senior Seminar course, as we had little to no guidance from the professor in terms of structuring a research paper.
How to write a very specific kind of paper that the Professor made the rules for, also a good amount about my research topic but not much about human rights or the research process
Learned especially through my own research the relationship between the Data Privacy and Human Rights.
I learned to write thesis paper, to prepare bibliography ahead, to sort and choose sources.
The Seminar is required for graduating, but I don't feel like I have learned anything meaningful that could help me improve my research and writing.
I learned how to research, form and produce a human rights thesis paper.
As far as senior seminars go, I found Professor Rosenblum's class to be particularly flexible and especially proactive. However, senior seminars in general seem to be heavier in workload, which is the drawback of this class as well.
