The "Disaster Preparedness" course on Coursera is an extremely informative and well-structured course. The course covers a wide range of topics related to disaster preparedness, including the different types of disasters, risk assessment, evacuation planning, and recovery.
The instructor is knowledgeable and presents the material in an engaging and easy-to-understand manner. The course is interactive, with plenty of opportunities for students to engage with the material, including quizzes and discussions.
One of the strengths of the course is its focus on practicality. The course provides numerous examples and case studies that help illustrate key concepts, making it easier for students to understand how the material can be applied in real-world situations. Additionally, the course provides a comprehensive list of resources for further study, including books, websites, and organizations.
Overall, I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in disaster preparedness. Whether you are a first responder, a community leader, or just someone looking to better understand how to prepare for disasters, this course is a valuable resource that provides a wealth of information

As most MOOC courses, if used correctly it actually provides the student with a fair amount of knowledge. It is a shame that some people don't take it seriously and only do the minimum or even copy other's projects (like it happened with mine) but the tutor was very helpful in supporting me with this.
I really enjoyed the course, learned new things and refreshed some other knowledge I already had. I would recommend this course for those interested in learning more about the topic

Lectures were easy to understand, I was able to read the texts in German at the same time. I got some valuable food for thought. It was interesting for me to get assessments from lecturers from America and Japan, countries with very different concepts of management. Some of it is aimed at the healthcare system, but it doesn't do any harm, so I now know the START triage concept. Thanks to the lecturers, I recommend the course. Take care of you!

I thoroughly enjoyed the course! I found it very engaging and helpful to my own personal planning. I would have liked to dig deeper into more first aid and CPR related things but the amount that we covered was good enough for me. Also, more information on Active shooter and Terrorism situations would be helpful as well. All in all, I think this program was well worth the time.
Thanks a million!

The course was informative, but seemed to be geared towards individuals not accustom to survival situations. I would enjoy taking a more advanced, in depth program.
However, the course was clear and I enjoyed the assignments. Some of the quiz questions were based off of information which may have meant more to the instructor than it was significant to the students.

This course is so much helpful and advanced for disaster management personnel.
As a graduate in disaster management, this course is a much more satisfying demonstration of real-life application of the institutional knowledge which is learned from my 4.5 years of academic education.
I would like to recommend this course as 8 out of 10.

was very informative, some of the links to further reading did not work. And it would seem that people who are grading others work are not taking this seriously with giving no explanation as to why they have marked something so low, especially in comparison to the others markers who grade higher, but also offer feedback.

More Pictures/illustration could be better during large lecture period what sometimes could be appeared as boring. The course largely describes situation based on US, more important examples around the world could make it more enjoyable. Thanks a lot to the professor, I've learnt a lot of important lessons here.
