Hey I've taken INQ 2HS3 before and i have to say its a pretty interesting course. for the entire term we basically discussed 3 topics (genetics, health in media, and fertility). for the first week, we discuss topic 1 in a small group. the second week we hand in a one page "statement" about how we feel about genetics and our position on it. during the second week, the professor invites 2 guest speakers to debate on the pro and con side of genetics. at the end of the second class, we think about what was discussed in the debate and in our groups and finally write a 1500 paper describing your entire thought process which led you to the conclusion "i am in favour/ not in favour of genetics becasue...." due the following week.
last year, it was supposed to be one three-hour class per week, but 90% of the time the class ended 1 hour early. I highly recommend the course becuase of the fairly light workload compared to many other courses (no exams, midterms, etc; only the initial position paper and the 1500word paper for each of the 3 topics) and it's definately for you if you are interested in health related issues.
hope that helps
