Disappointed by the scope of this course.

Steve clearly has a greater interest/knowledge of the Medical Device market and this is reflected in the material for the Pharma market which was disappointing, especially when the BioPharma market is far bigger than MedTech.

If you want a course on Steve's interest and likes this is the course for you. Wish they could have brought in a lecturer with a more balanced focus, I often find Steve's lecturing hard to follow also.

Good basic information on medical device and pharmaceutical industry. I recommend that the presentations be updated with more current information, like 2023 or at least 2022 information as the presentations often contain information that is 5-10 years old. Quizzes , in later modules mark some of the correct answers as incorrect. These are mostly the True/False question. The discussion forums discuss this.

One of the courses on coursera related to pharmaceuticals, only problem is the audio quality which is very low volume compared to other courses and also there is no devices included. Just the innovation and clinical trials and regulation.

All in all,the idea of the topic is good and informative, however honestly speaking I didnt like teaching method of professors. The video volume was very quite.

Lots of typing/grammatical errors in the quizzes and assignments made it difficult at times to understand what was being asked. The content was fine.

The person who spoke was not very effective and loud and at some points lost track of the main topic even though the topic was very interesting

Some of the material was outdated and the form of communicating and presenting felt a bit dull at times.

The explanation of the content should have been more interactive. It was monotonous and less engaging.

The instructor is basically reading what's written on the slides. Tests are super easy.

The voice of the Professor was too low and can't be easily understandable. There were al ot of theoretcial details and less practical given. This was the first course from coursera in which didn't learn anything. You can check my profile. I have taken a lot of courses from here, but this one, I can't understand.

Some of the modules were not very clear. Instructor was quite incoherent in some of the videos and just reading off content from the slides. Wished there was more in-depth examples and clarity on some of the sub-topics he was trying to explain.

The lectures were hard to understand because of the way the presenter spoke. He sometimes talked too fast or with a low voice. I lost my enthusiasm for this course and felt bored listening to the lectures..

The course leader is not giving the course the full potential and do not have academic capabilities of giving a full picture around the course, besides the course is not well introduced

Audio is hard to hear. Sometimes Prof are not audible or clearly understandable. A lot of business/market related info rather than innovation related topics.
