This course was amazingly informative. I have learned many new thoughts and ideologies. This new understanding will help me to help my students feel a sense of belonging, inclusion and understanding.

An amazing course rich with narratives and lots of readings/ videos/ resources. This has been a great learning experience for me. Thank you to everyone who was a part of teaching this course :)

This course is propaganda. No science. Very disappointing!

I want to express my gratitude to those who intervened in all the ways in this wonderful course; with the elaboration and edition of material, the compilation of information, the pdf documents, the blogs, the informative pages about the subject, the brave testimonies of the transgender people, the opinions of professionals of the health and the companions that participated in the course with their valuable opinions. I thank you all for instructing me about how to help transgender people, in a country like mine, where even ignorance and prejudice hurt a lot. From my trench as a university professor, I want to make a commitment to support transgender people and their families with the aim of restarting a healthy and emotional communication, which stimulates their self-esteem and allows them to fully develop in their social environment to improve their quality of life . Having finished the course, can I get the scholarship? In order to implement changes in my workplace, I will be asked for a certificate. Thank you so much.

The course had some good material, but it does not look like it has been reviewed in a while as some of the content they link to is no longer available.

The videos had very low quality of picture and sound.
There could be more scientific material and resources included.

Some of the speakers are OK, and interesting to listen to. However, many speakers were not good speakers, with lots of "likes" and "ums" in their talks. Also, the video edits often cut people off in the middle of sentences. There were far too many supplemental materials to read for my liking. Also, to be perfectly honest I think this course brought up more questions than it answered and does not improve understanding or approval of transgendered or gender non-conforming individuals.

The course itself was excellent, however, I did have many technical glitches within many modules. I sent reports on all issues to help correct them for the future. Specifically, one of the quizzes in Module 6 needs to be looked at - I was unable to get a passing mark regardless of the answer I gave to question #3.

The course itself I thought was quite good. A nice mixture of videos and readings covering many different areas impacting the TGNC community. I have gathered a collection of books that I'd like to read and movies that I'd like to watch to continue my learning. Having a final assignment that was peer graded seemed ridiculous, but I did it, put some thought into it and was given a 3/7, therefore not passing and having to resubmit it. No other CEUs that I have taken in the past 10 years have included anything like. It was so frustrating after putting 30 or so hours into this course to have a peer decide my final assignment wasn't worth passing, especially after the assignment description begins with "there are no right or wrong answers".

videos were poorly made and not worth watching, all in all the course was a waste of my time.

I tried and tried to complete this course and every answer I put is wrong so I study more and change what is wrong and its still wrong. I complete 98 % I only lack to quizzes. I can't complete. I what this to be graded on what I have complete.

Very important course for everyone who wants some insight into the plight of the brave transgender people of this earth. This short informative course shines a bright light on exactly what it takes to navigate daily life's struggles as a transgender person. I give it the highest marks and wish it was a pre-requisite for all schools. Education is the key.

Thanks

It was a very detailed course presented for the most part by people who are transgender. On a scale of one to ten, ten being the most interesting and engaging and one being the least, I would give it an 8. The course Lacked some of the research and history of transgender which adds to the understanding of inclusiveness and diversity. Thank you.

There was a lot of content. A lot was repetitive. The class is a mix of
around 75% outside reading material and videos, and
25% original content. Several links to outside sources went to either the wrong
page, or were dead links.
The other major issue is that there is a peer
reviewed assignment after the class. In the discussion boards, there are people
begging for a review. I did several reviews myself, the oldest I
saw was from Six months ago.
The class was exhaustive.

This course was a fantastic overview of Transgender and Gender Non-Confirming issues, incorporating many different voices -- both academic perspectives and personal experiences. I think it would be enriching for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of TGNC issues, but also particularly recommend it for people largely unfamiliar with the issues looking to create more inclusive spaces or be more supportive towards a friend or loved one identifying as TGNC. Thank you, University of Minnesota, for creating such a great course.

This course was incredibly helpful! I thought I was trauma informed about LBGTQIA issues and transgender or Gender Non-conforming. I was shocked at how little I knew and how NON-Trauma informed I was. It was a very humbling experience. However, it took forever for peers to grade the final project. I really don't think this is a good practice. Plus the peers don't give feed back on why they graded the way they did. Otherwise good course.

Adorei este curso pelo olhar amplo e por tantas informações técnicas, depoimentos e abordagem variada.
Muito importante para ampliar nosso olhar para os transgêneros, tema que geralmente desconhecemos na profundidade .
I loved this course due to the wide seeing and due to so many information, testimonies and its diverse approach.
It is very important to extend our view to transgender people, which we usually ignore .

The videos feel a bit cut-off a lot of the times, but if you ignore this then it's super informative and educating and well structured.

It's very interesting and excellent course that provides a comprehensive background of LGBTQ+ and their lived experiences.
