After finishing this course, I feel like I have a solid background to start reading Snorri's Edda, etc. However, I would have liked to see readings integrated into the video lectures. The lectures are informative, but there isn't enough of a 'frame' to hang all the details on.

Though the mythology and stories are interesting in their own right, the presentation of them was not as engaging as I would have liked. I would've liked more visuals or videos, less narration.

I felt that the instructor was not fully engaged, probably because he was simply reading from a script and did not even appear on video once. In fact, there was no need for videos at all, a transcript would have worked. He should have spent more time introducing each section and providing more explanations. Overall I feel like we were dropped into the course in medias res.
