I am not a philosopher, nor do I plan to become one. The same can be said of my relationship to psychology. However, this course was quite helpful in surveying a specific topic related to these fields. It gave me a chance to get back into an academic setting, see how it feels, and consider if a Master's degree is a pathway I am ready to commit to. On the downside, there were some broken links to supplementary readings, and a supplementary piece or two that was behind a paywall. Also, as is not unique, the discussion forums are littered with copy and paste material from students clearly doing the minimum and making no attempt to engage with others. Overall, this was a positive course experience, and I am interested in taking another course once I have found a suitable topic. Also, I very much enjoyed the video lectures of the University of Edinburgh faculty who participated.

The course gives a good basic insight to the topic of intellectual humility although in the beginning it fails a little in telling why intellectual humility is so important. (roughly the message was: "you get along better with other people and yourself")

As the question "what is (intellectual) humility" is more a philosophical question than a practical experience this course cannot provide you with a tool that helps you to be more humble within a few days, to improve your humility and to measure someone elses humility but the course helps you asking yourself the right questions. ("Is social status important to me? Can I accept different opinions?...)

It was my first coursera experience and I am satisfied with it. However, the videos are a bit oldfahsioned in style - if it was intended to give the videos an antique look - well done ;-)

This was a somewhat difficult and challenging course for me. I felt it was more technical than I expected. I really liked it a lot. This is my first Coursera course so the four stars is more to leave room for future courses that I take that might exceed this one. This was a great course and I would highly recommend it.

This course was a wonderful change of pace. I really enjoyed taking a look at humanity in a different perspective. It arms you will another way to look at individuals and yourself to understand if you can justify their take on information in regards to looking at subjects with an epistemic view.

A very good short course on an important intellectual trait, the intellectual humility. The videos were very informative, and the lecturers did not require a prior knowledge on philosophy or psychology. I managed to complete the course even though I did not have more than 2-3 hours per week.

Very interesting subject and well structured course, with good exposition of the subject. Looking forward into Part 2! Knocked one star off (would be half if I could) just because there is some discontinuity between the three sections/speakers and still a couple of rough edges to smooth out.

This is a well-produced course, and the speakers are engaging. The reading material is useful, as are the occasional quizzes to check for comprehension. I would like to see more diversity in the speakers. The all-male, all-white representation is alienating.

Topic and course are quite interesting. Lectures are clear and easy to follow, but don't have much spark, so not a five stars.

This course met my expectations. I expected to learn more about the intellectual humility.

It is a great course. Looking forward to the next two modules.

first on-line course - enjoyed myself

The course was VERY informative. But there were so many terms to so many different things, on just one topic, humility. Then some of the questions in the quizzes seemed designed to confuse a person when trying to select which multiple choice answer to check off. My brain went through a whole lot in a short period of time. So, even though the course was very thorough on the topic, it was a very difficult course and I had to take alot of notes to study over when I wasn't online. I managed to pass the course. I was amazed that I did.

Hmmm ... the concept was great, and it really is an important aspect of intellectual pursuits in an age of fake news and internet facts (both comments are sarcastic), there must be honest deliberation on such issues. But as a course, it seems lacking in the mature "punch" needed to convey the right concpets to the learner, gets lost sometimes in the mundane aspects. But overall, worth while, just not a spectacular course experience.

Some interesting ideas but not entirely convinced by the concept of 'humility' in this context. Is it really any more than simple openness to new ideas and the possibility of being wrong. That is not really 'humble'/ Smacks at times of academic pretension. You need to follow carefully what is being said - not a course to do while doing something else!

I enjoyed exploring the content behind the course, but the material was a little dense for someone without any type of philosophy background. I was familiar with some of the content due to my psychology education.

Interesting topic. Reasonable lectures, but poor study aides. Interesting fora and discussion groups.

Great Course, but much too fast paced

rather hard to understand

Very dense material

Not so inspiring

Unfortunately, I found this course to have long and wordy videos and the lectures unclear due to over-intellectualization of the concepts.

I do not feel that this course is ready for publication and is overlong for the material presented.

Teachers are not good
