Great course! The material was engaging and thus I was able to learn a lot. I hope that they can recreate other courses (particularly their epidemiology course) in a similar manner, because I have stopped courses such as that one for being too dense, poorly written and taught. I am glad to have learned and I hope that future MOOCs use this as a template of what to do in teaching courses online!

This is such a fun course to take, perhaps the first MOOC that made me giggle at least once. The course creators successfully attempted to add humor on such a serious topic. I find that by turning errors and misconceptions in infection prevention and control practices into laughing matter, the necessary emphases are made so learners are more likely to consciously avoid them in their work.

The planning and execution of this course is simply phenomenal. Dramatizing most scenes enables the lessons of each chapter to sink. I love this method of teaching which to me is unprecedented. Thumbs up to all the educators at Sunnyside Home care facility.
