This is a great introductory course. It is very simple and has a clear structure. Professor Mackenzie is very accommodating and organized. I found the class to be quite easy - she introduces you to 3 foundational moral theories (utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics). There are 3 midterms and a final, 8 in class short writing assignments (completion grade), and one essay 3/4 of the way through the sem. I really liked Mackenzie's teaching style and would like to see her in a more difficult class. I would recommend this class for anyone who has never taken a philosophy course before or is just doing this for a requirement. If you want to get really in depth and have a thought-provoking class, look elsewhere.
