I haven't even started the course yet but it looks brilliant! Never in my life did I think I would be doing a course offered by Yale University! I thank the folks at Yale and Coursera for making it so easy and cheap for one to be able to attempt achieving what some would call a dream!

One of the best made online courses. The animated lectures with Paul Bloom's riveting voice-overs stand out amongst all the other courses I've ever taken. The content itself was also incredibly interesting and, I would argue, not only for those who are new to the world of psychology.
