This course is an advanced level course on COVID-19. I love this course so much. From this course we know about the use of programmed apps for contact tracing. It is very helpful for job aspirants.

Excellent albeit difficult ( at least for me). The instructors and material provided is just great. Everybody who wants to support their community should do the course and get the qualification.

Very well thinked and disposed app. tool for use along with the information. I apreciate the knowledge in Epidemiology I got from this course. It's very exciting to analize and evaluate how could an intervention could impact in the reproductive number of the population. Thank you very much.

I found the ConTESSA application to be fascinating. Once I understood the underlying assumptions and the need for accurate data in order to form those assumptions, the app was somewhat demystified. I feel confident that I have a better focus on the big posture now and want to learn more.

This was a great course but a little more challenging than the COVID-19 contact tracing course. I definitely enjoyed the hands on learning with the CONTESSA app. I will be practicing some more to get a better handle on the Impact estimations. Overall I enjoyed learning new material.

Hard Class. Kind of Tricky. The procedure for yaml download needs to be updated. Some using chrome on a mac will need to rename the extension on the file or it wont load. My brain hurts. Definitely a challenge compared to the basic covid19 class

Was very helpful, a little difficulty understanding the questions that I missed on the quiz' since I never received the correct answer to check it against....that would have been helpful, since I'm still not sure how I read those charts wrong.

I think what gave me some headacke was the language used, I was not used to it. I had to read few times carefully.
Perhaps additional videos illustrating relations between all variables would be useful.
Otherwise, thanks and congrats.
Cheers

The course focuses on using Johns Hopkins Contessa contract tracing program evaluation tool. The first section gives a nice review of what is known about covid19. The other two sections require use and interpretation of contessa software.

The numerical calculations on the 3rd test were almost impossible for me to get correctly. I didn't feel like the 3rd module helped me manipulate the standard inputs effectively to interpret the data or modify assumptions.

The lesson was informative and well put together, the app however has a poor user interface and not enough clear to the point instructions on how to use it. When you do figure it out it's not bad though.

The audio recording by Kyra have issues and some words are "inaudible" in the transcript. This means those video by Kyra are more difficult to understand what she is saying in addition to her accent.

The way they explain each module was really clear. Keep it up! And just a little more further explanation for the module about assumptions and advanced options. That's all ^_^ Thank you very much.

I found much of this hard to understand. Watched all videos twice. I understand how to enter the data but struggled in the questions that asked to interpret the data.

The course was informative but difficult. I could not save the .yaml files directly and had to find a way to get to them when I needed to reload them. It was not easy.

Course was helpful in doing some critical thinking. App interface could be made less wordy. I like the manipulability built into the ConTESSA App to suit users' context

1-can not open Contessa app to do the tests!

Overall, a good course. Some of the data in the exams are not presented as clearly as I would have liked. Take your time and reread questions.

This course is primarily a primer for the use of Contessa, including situations where its use would be practical or helpful.

It was a great course. It's important to know how can improve with the Technology using Contessa

Very informative course. The quizzes were worded in a confusing fashion and should be reviewed.

I suggest providing actual examples before the course, aside from the videos. Thank you.

It was a good exercise but needs time and effort to get around the app and numbers.
