I would rate this course a 3.5/5. The biggest advantage of this course is the interviews with transmedia professionals who offer real examples of how to implement transmedia storytelling in various scenarios and also offer industry-relevant tips and strategies that can help us. This is supremely helpful from a practical perspective.

However, at the same time, it feels like many of the interviews were done sometime in the past decade, since some of the things the people talk of (such as advancements in technology), are already underway or already obsolete. What I would have liked from this course (and which would have been better), was more staff involvement. Currently, just one staff member pops in occasionally to review assignments that are held up in review stage because of lack of students. But having experts guide us more closely by offering consistent assignment feedback would have helped.

Overall though, this course does help you look at content creation and storytelling from a new perspective. I would say people who are already in the creative industry or with some personal experience in writing, designing and storytelling, can get much more out of the material here, than someone with zero experience in writing or storytelling. It was an enjoyable course, that can easily be completed in a week, if you already have a story in place. Good luck with your course :)

This was an interesting and interactive course for anyone interested in storytelling. I learnt a lot about the importance of understanding the audience to inform a transmedia strategy and the technology used to convey a narrative. However, I many of the links to further reading didn't work, and I feel the course content needs an update - some of it was many years old. Also, when advised on the number of assignments we would need to review per module, I found I was always asked to review one more in addition to what I expected in order to receive my grade. Some of the assignments I had to review were just a cut and paste of the same answers.

I liked the course, in the sense that they provided guidance and tips to generate and communicate that with the transmedia audience. But there are only tips and nothing else. They don't teach any technicalities and it gets more and more irritating and frustrating. They just keep talking about different plans and tips and each and every person gives some lecture about something and sometimes two of them give the same message. Its also very long and takes up a lot of time. So my tip is that if you are not interested in transmedia course and just want to try it for fun, don't do it.

It doesn't have a Scaffolding learning. So you feel that you know nothing and your face with tons of content, that you don't really understand. It's overwhelming. I feel it needs to star nice and easy, and start adding more after the second week.

Doesn't suit my needs...more media specific

good content and good homeworks

I feel this course gives you a lot of tools but not many insights on how to apply these tools. It's as if you wanted to build a house and each lesson is about "how important a brick is for a house, you can't build a house without it", but it doesn't teach you how to build a wall.

Not really what I'd expected, as a part visual storyteller. This course engages more of the scientific paradoxes engaged with visual storytelling. Which is something I'm not involved with, doing animation and home studio voiceover.

Cheap promotional materials dominate this course. It is for people who have too much spare time but don't need any specific knowledge.
