It was a great experience to be able to learn the subject. Very captivating lectures and interesting reading

materials. I very much enjoy learning the introduction to psychology. It is not boring in the slightest, very useful knowledge even if you’re not pursuing the fields. Overall I’m glad I took this class. Thank you very much to Professor Bloom and Coursera.

The lecture in animation format is really creative and inspirational. The way Instructor Bloom led students into the world of psychology is great. So far, it all met my expectations of this course and I've gained quite understanding about my own and others' reactions to situations in life. My appreciation to Yale University and Professor Bloom. Thank you so much!

The teacher was super engaging! I took this class because I am looking to transition into a psychology degree and wanted to try a sample course. I ended up doing the entire course in about 2 weeks because I just enjoyed it so much. I loved the variety of topics, and how modern the courseload was. It was also clearly made for online learning. Really recommend it!

Paul Bloom muy buen mentor, mucha creatividad en el diseño que lo hacia muy dinámico y relativamente fácil, por mi parte quede muy contenta y satisfecha, aclare algunos interrogantes, el contenido muy interesante me gustaría participar en un nuevo curso con Paul Bloom espero notificaciones hasta la próxima y muchas gracias a Coursera por tan excelente trabajo.

the most pleasant and wonderful memory of this course was the narrators VOICE.

Listening to Prof Paul Bloom for the last 6 weeks - his teaching style - his explanations - the way he translates the concepts to the class leaves a memory of happiness in my mind. I would like to engage in more courses under his leadership.

What an amazing course! i completed it over a month, and I have learned so much. this course has given me a different perspective on life, and the subject itself is utterly fascinating. thank you, Professor Bloom, for the amazing animations, the fun little videos to keep attention, your eye for detail and your easy to understand way of explaining and teaching!

Its a great course well paced and a decent introduction for someone who is completely new to the subject. All reading material is available for free. Lots of real examples, experiments and talks make the subject less theoretical and easy to consume. The videos which are animated are great shift from the conventional videos and interesting to watch. Loved it!!!

I recently completed the Introduction to Psychology course, and it was an enlightening experience. The content was engaging and well-structured, making complex concepts easy to understand. I particularly appreciated the practical examples and interactive components. Highly recommend it to anyone curious about understanding human behavior and mental processes!

This course is awesome for having foundational knowledge in Psychology. Each concept has been explained with vivid examples. The favourite part for me were the assignment questions, you will be able to answer them accurately only upon having clear concepts. I loved this course. Looking forward to more courses on the different domains of psychology by Yale.

Brilliant introductory course- engaging, easy to understand but not dumbed down, covers a great range of foundational topics. I feel like I know have a really good understanding of the different fields in psychology as well as some of the approaches and methods used by different key figures. Highly recommend to anyone even vaguely interested in psychology.

I always thought I was the text book type and would never cherish an online learning experience. But thanks to Coursera and Prof. Bloom, this has been one of my most wonderful learning experiences. Prof. Bloom is excellent. The way he explains the tenets of psychology not only makes understand each of it clearly but also leaves you with a lot of curiosity.

An excellent introduction to psychology with great animations and an engaging teacher. It will touch on many known experiments of psychology as well as analyze their scientific validity. It will also shape your idea about psychology as a scientific approach to our minds rather than a vague mental analysis that is depicted in contemporary movies and dramas.

This was my first experience with psychology science, a subject that has always interested me implicitly. I'm glad I took the course. It will probably take me to some more in-depth study of related psychological subjects of personal interest. The course was lectured in a well structured way and kept my attention all the way through. Definitely recommended.

Professor Paul Bloom is so kind - enjoyed his lessons and the reading as well! Everything is very interesting and the animated style of video is very engaging! Loved the various research experiments introduced and also hearing about Paul, his wife, who is also a Psychology Professor at Yale! Highly recommend this course to anyone interested in Psychology.

This course is absolutely worth my time and effort and highly recommended to anyone who has an interest in Psychology but knows nowhere to start. The lecturers are very clear with many examples and good illustrations. Besides the videos, I find the reading materials helpful to further explore knowledge. Such a wonderful course and an excellent Professor!

Thank you Professor Bloom. Really enjoyed the course, learned about what makes people behave the way they do and how to accept them and deal with them. This applies to personal relationships, family relationships, societal relationships, relationships between nations and worldwide. I am now eager to dig more in the different subjects at deeper level.

Material is suitable for different levels of engagement. Lectures and quizzes are great for general impression of the subject. I've spent a great deal of time going trough articles at Noba Project and appreciate the balance between accessibility of language and level of detail. Great thanks to Paul and the team for personal touch and format of delivery.

I feel so thankful and enjoyable when I have a chance to attend this course. This course is definitely helpful to anyone who have curiosity in Psychology and desire to have a foundation insight in this field. Attending this course, you will be provide a lot of interesting lectures and some reading sources which help you achieve far - reaching knowledge.

Wonderful and very interesting course. The professor and the additional entities involved in creating this lecture/ content did an amazing job. For someone like me who never was interested in psychology, this course has surely done its job! Would recommend this course even if you are not going to pursue this field or, feel this is not there cup of tea.

I was hoping to jump straight into clinical psychology and at first I resented all the historical topics, especially the lectures about stuff that psychologist’s don’t believe anymore. Then, as I went on I appreciated the extra level of information. Overall, a really good INTRODUCTION to an incredibly complicated subject. It’s inspired me to learn more.

As a visual learner, I appreciate the use of art for the visuals of each lesson. The professor has a clear voice which makes me listen more and understand everything he says clearer. The use of sound effects also got me more excited to learn as it helps me to focus and have fun as I learn. I also rarely see other courses using this kind of visual aids.

Covers a broad range of major topics in psychology with vivid description and cases. The views from the lecturer are very modern and objective, and always try to tell the audience the importance of humbleness and scientific analysis method when doing research in the psychology field. Also really liked the novel presentation method (the illustratIons!!)

This is my first course on Coursera and I loved every bit of it! I got a bit emotional on the final lecture when Dr.Bloom touched on humility and optimism. I have gained beneficial knowledge on the brain and human behaviors, but there are areas yet to be explored. With this, I highly recommend this course to gain insight into the basics of psychology!

Totally awesome. Its been awhile since my last course. With that being said the wording in thee quizzes takes a bit and is a little confusing. Perhaps more details or information regarding upcoming questions on quizzes. I took plenty of notes? But thank you for the experience. Professor Bloom was exceptionally easy to understand, precise and clear.

The content was easy to understand and provided a comprehensive overview of the science of thought and mind. The animations were well-made and the audiovisual association made the lectures easy to follow. The lectures and complementary textbook readings were very complete. The professor's enthusiasm made for an extremely enjoyable learning experience.
