This is a very short class- maybe 45 minutes to complete (I took it at 1.25x rate, and it was about a half hour).
It has one visual aid. The rest is lecture. He is knowledgeable and informative- but it is a little dry.
It truly is direct and to the point.
The transcript given at the end is helpful- essentially the entire lecture in 8 pages.
