Thank you for making such a good online course. Designing is my hobby, I didn't know what's behind the good, simple and eye-catchy designs, but I know some of the basic principles know. Thanks.

It is really full of knowledge that they shared and lots of articles that contain relevant topics that help me to add my knowledge and wisdom about design. Thank you DOST! Thank you, Coursera!

The content is okay (a little sparse), but my biggest issue is that you cannot complete the course without a passing grade from peer reviewers -- who have no specialized knowledge of the content. I've decided not to pursue the rest of the specialization because it appears the other courses also have this flaw.

Feels lacking in content. It could be twice as long and the only course only took a few hours.

The course is good, but the grading system is poor.

This course is suited well for middle school students because of the extreme simple concepts, lack of nuanced detail, or unique real life examples. It seem that the interesting parts of a real graphic design course were stripped away and the bare bones, 101 of graphic design was left behind (e.g. color, spacing, alignment), concepts you learn when making a power point in high school. Would recommend skipping and going pursuing a real course.

Terrible instructor. She's only reading text and stammers along the way. It's too bad because the content actually is interesting but I can't get past the way she narrates.

The instructor isn’t very engaging and doesn’t
speak in a pleasant manner.

Super basic. No explanation of the tools. It is expected you'll learn tools (Creative Cloud) on your own, which is difficult and time consuming if you are new to the topic.
