Interesting courses! I am learning a lot. Thank you very much Coursera. I have just completed course 2 and been delivered a certificate but I just can't access my new course. What should I do, please?

I enjoyed taking this course. Even though I don't like the peer-grading system in general, within this course it makes sense. It is always interesting to hear other people's opinions and experiences.

Not happy...the peer review assignments people choose to comment but not grade, honestly I think the tests are enough to show understanding of concepts and approaches.

I really enjoyed the creative way the theories were presented. Some of the presentations seemed a bit repetitive unnecessarily, like in the Angel and Devil debates.

Good stuff so far: hoping to get more in-depth about specific types of classroom situations (all that pesky cognitive stuff) beyond just the history of approaches

I love the course because it is very detailed and informative. I also enjoyed watching teacher Shane Dixon's acting and teacher Jessica Cinco's teaching.

This course was really fun and easy to understand. I liked the videos from the preivous time and Dr.Shane is an amazing actor, he did a really great job.

It was well put together and enjoyable to take. The 8 theories covered are thoroughly explained. The chart infidelity helped for the 25 question exam.

I appreciate the video vignettes and e-enactments as part of the instruction. Many are tongue-in-cheek (on purpose) and enliven the learning process.

Nice course. I only wish you focused on the target audience a bit more, and did not asume we all need to be "amused" with weird antics.
Thanks.

Like the first course in this series, this is very easy to understand and the instructor delivers the lesson as if he is in a classroom.

Some of test questions are vague and create a kind of misunderstanding. I hope this will be considered as a frienly advice, not a claim.

The course was well done overall, but I was surprised by the number of English grammatical errors in a class about teaching English.

Very well presented. Helped me remember a lot from what I studied in my university and gave me a clearer and new perspective.

the course was useful but was too theoretical and there were unclear questions in the final exam.
