I took a Java class from ZDU, and in general I don't have many complaints.
You do have the opportunity to have specific questions answered via a
discussion board interface. One gripe is the text book that you MUST buy to
follow the class (ie ZD profit center) is a bit expensive for what you get.
You
can preview it in a PDF file.

My advice is to subscribe at the one month ($8) level and see how you like
it.
