Professor Bloom has quite engaging style of teaching and the animations in this course provided nice visual reference.Overall, it's a nice course if you want to learn basic introduction of psychology.

I absolutely enjoyed taking this course! Professor Bloom did an incredible job explaining the course material and providing additional reading materials to further my knowledge throughout this course.

Overall I found the course a well-structured and fascinating introduction that has me ready to pursue further study of the subject. I really wanted to give it five stars, but I couldn't do so considering the points where the course moved from psychology to indoctrination against faith perspectives. Different views should be presented, and the professor is certainly entitled to his, but his approach to the philosophical "discussions" and deliberate use of sacred text to negatively influence seemed designed to disparage and offend. The reference to the Book of Matthew, which I understand has been used for some time, is an egregious misuse (not even just a misinterpretation) of scripture. The use of Ecclesiastes was better, admittedly, but still degrades its sacred meaning to those who choose that faith.
There are places for meaningful discussions of this kind, here it came off as opportunistic influence of eager, younger learners.

i took this course as i have an interest in Psychology and never had the chance to take it up, I found it interesting and would definitely do a follow up course if there was an option available. However being the type of person that i am, i feel i would have benefited more from learning in an actual class environment rather than attempting to read and listen online. With that said, it was a different way to learn and i will be reading the recommended books.

I found the course to be well constructed and interesting, it covered many of the main areas of psychology. However for me it lacked the depth of other courses I've completed. I found the format of the videos (cartoon professor) to be a novelty at first, but it became difficult to connect with the professor and subsequently the course content due to the format.

Great material to introduce me to Psychology. The modules are arranged and categorized clearly. If I may suggest improvements, one is that Professor Bloom's intonation could be livelier and more engaging. Two, the animation is good but it doesn't allow me to see Professor Bloom's facial expression and actual body gesture, which makes it less engaging as well.

The course is quite informative and well structured. The additional material provided is also interesting to read. The reason for 3 star is that it's just an overview of all the core stuff, you'll have to dig deeper by yourself to even get a basic understanding.

A quick and easy introduction to the most relevant aspects of psychology. The strongest point is that the videos are short and very entertaining. The weak point is that the course is an overview of psychology and may you leave wanting more.

Reading materials are of quality and awesome! However, the course videos can be quite boring as it was delivered monotonously and for a Psychology beginner, there're plenty of terms to remember which makes the content very dry!

Interesting topics, but low quality video with distracting animations, issues with audio getting stuck, poorly estimated time of reading (e.g. 6 long articles estimated to take 10 mins). Overall: not recommended.

opinion and explanation that are given by proffers are strongly subjective. also course doesn`t represent real basis of psychology and is rather made like course for hobby

Not bad, a lot of interesting things. But - no system, no specific way, just few words about anything, and they not realy related with each others. But not bad.

The animations, cartoons, and sound effects are extremely unnecessary and annoying. The speaker should have talked in a louder tone.

I would rather watch his old course uploaded on youtube. That is way more engaging even when the presentation is not visible.
