Very clear teaching strategies from the instructors. Some quizzes though are a little bit hard on my part because of the type of questions and answers. But overall it is a great course to take with.

very interesting and usefull course. Learned a lot! 5 star.
Only disadvantage is that the questions/exam needed to pass is very difficult and have trick(y) questions. That is why it ultimately only gets 3 star.

Quite interesting and informative. A good place to begin learning about basics of epidemiology, but one must read additional materials to have a better flow/understanding of the course.

Informative but boring lecture videos and very little exciting updates to the world of epidemiology (only touches on public health problems and solutions from 20th century).

It would have been helpful to have a reference section apart from the weeks that would list some key terms and the multiple formulas for calculating ratios, odds, etc.

It was very informative. But few things were difficult to understand in week 2 and 3 could you simplify so that it would be easy for future students.

Good introduction to epidemiology. Quizzes are useless, however, If the quizzes were simply re-done, then the whole course would be better.

Very educational but a little hard to follow. Also these tests are too hard for beginners. Overall though it was OK, I rate it 3.5 stars.

Quizzes are difficult especially week 2 quiz. The flow of the discussion and topics are good. Professors were great! I learned a lot!

It was nice, but nothing incredible. A standard introduction course, it sets basic tools for getting started with the subject

Although the content was informational, the presenters were uninteresting and made watching the videos hard to do.

It was informational and started with the basics. It was overall a good course but needs to be more interactive.

I wish we went in depth a bit. The overview was a bit vague and didn't instruct very well.

I guess more improvements needed for quiz and in depth video should be included.
