very good introductory course. i enjoyed the assignments, they are not overwhelming, easy to start, and the optional ones offer great opportunity to dig little deeper into graphic design fundamentals.

An ok course for beginners. A bit too basic for someone who has already had experience in design, but is great anyway cause it breaks things back down to the simplest parts to help you remember roots.

Wish there were more real-world projects, and that we didn't have so many rules in our submissions. Also wish the final project (the band) would give us some more creative freedom, something like "pick a cause you want to support and make promotional art for it"

It was a bit hard to keep up with everything due to there being no specific definitions on screen or any stress on what we should know. Everyone has their own learning style, and this course didn't really fit mine. I did enjoy the hands-on activities though.

The videos and content are ok, but the fact that your assignments are evaluated by other students is unacceptable, especially because most of them don't put any effort on the feedbacks, so you end up not having a good measure of your talent and progress.

Interesting and exploratory but not much was really explained; he just kinda showed examples and said see what I mean. That's great but you're not really learning why and thus in my opinion I don't feel like I learned much about graphic design

The course covers a very surface explanations of topics, where you get to watch only few minutes video and do much more practice by yourself. I agree that we learn by practicing, but also, I was expected to get more knowladge from the course.

Instead of reading blogs and books on graphic design and then following that up with consequent practice I decided to take up this course which would help me do both more efficiently and so far I'm not regretting my decision.

this course is kinda useful but I think it needs to go deeper in some details about those fundamentals of graphic design to give a complete imagination about how this world works, glad to be here and thanks a lot!

Interesting appraoch to basic elements of graphic design. however, i believe there should be more required assignments instead of the optional ones to gain deeper and better understanding of various elements.

It is quite engaging from a beginner point of view but I expected the course to more of a professional level. Expected to work on a Graphic Design software like Adobe Illustrator or something like that.

They are teaching you basics of design. The course is pretty good for people who have absolutely no knowledge in design. Overall my experience was good. They did increase my knowledge about graphics.

Interesting material, but no interaction with instructors at all. Everything is peer reviewed and unfortunately not all the students speak English well enough to understand the grading rubric.

The course content is good, but I am not happy with the fully peer graded method. There is no way to flag spam users, and often you're stuck with no or unhelpful feedback on your assignments.

I was expecting to have more hands on experience and learning graphic designing software, but it was more about theory. I liked the theory and classes, but still I was hoping for more.

Great course for anyone who wishes to learn graphic designs. It's eye-opening for me as it is not just about arts, but also the techniques and compositions behind every design

Si deseas conocer los conceptos básicos del diseño gráfico de una manera amena este es tu curso. Es prácticamente autogestivo pero con un diseño instruccional de alta calidad.

Very basic and seems a bit outdated. Good if you really need to know the basics, not so good for portfolio development or learning anything that is real world applicable

I was expecting to learn to use some tools during the course. Looks like I have to teach myself how to use different programs for designing.

A introduction to graphic design. All assignments are peer review, most of the time you cannot receive useful comment to improve yourself.

Peer grading is absolutely the worst. Real feedback from a real instructor is needed instead of "ok" and "good" from peers on assignment.

It's very very basic, I know it's considered an introductory course but I expected more. It was very interesting and informative though.

I liked the course's content; however, the grades given by peers were very subjective which made me think less of the course overall.

A bit basic, but I guess that's what should be expected of an "Introduction"
It would be nice to get a more advanced alternative course

the course is great but I did not understand the point of the first week so without that the course would be 5 stars i think

This course is just about the basics. It was very easy for me to take this course, do assignments. Think twice before buying.

Did learn new things as well what graphic design really is (Spoiler: Its not restricted to only good looking designs).
