This course surpassed my expectation. I can not only apply what I have learned in my professional life but also can help me to improve some personal aspects, like communication with my family members.

An absolutely wonderful course on communication skills. Its a course every professional should take as it teaches the very basics of communication that we all should incorporate and practice everyday.

Quite useful though in some cases quite general. Very easy to follow the presenter. The idea of the course is to get some take-away points and start practicing them in your daily life. So don't expect to become a professional communicators but rather expect some useful ideas. Thank you!

This course is incredibly realistic and awesome. It gives different psychological approaches to solving several different niggling issues as 'how to gain trust' and 'detection deception'. However, some points expatiated I think could be viewed more relatively. Especially signalling.

I really liked the course, and the instructor as well (it was easy to understand him). Also I would rather name the course more related to the "Communication Process" itself than with a set of tools or skills to be applied or enhanced through it.

Back to basics course on communication. Well developed modules as communication is not just jargons, vocabulary but also about building a relation. The faculty Prof. Maurice is extremely knowledgeable and well researched on the topic.

Very interesting. From my point of view, it offers a good grasp of the theorethical basis which underlies the different phenomena explained and good practical stories which illustrate them. I enjoyed it and recommend it.

Through several examples, the course explains a lot of the ins and outs of communication. It is well built and consistent, focusing on ways to understand and enhance how to communicate in a constructive manner.

Really great lecturer. As previously mentioned materials including layout are not the best. They somehow only repeat what was said however would beneficial to have document in the form of syllabus or guidance.

Although the course deals with very important topics about communication in different settings, especially in business, it does not integrate these concepts with the other courses in this specialization.

Decent course. Good basic understanding. However, some of the examples left us hanging ie what about the Cop who convinced the suspect to plead guilty - how did he do it, why only in half hour?

The material is a bit tough and the ppts arent as elaborative/helpful as they should be with regards to the specific points tested in quizzes. Otherwise, the instructor is great

Very informative, but I would have liked some more practical experience or exercises. The many examples given were very illustrative though. Good course.

The course was very informative and contained useful information. It was a little difficult to understand at times, as the professor slurred his words.

Almost all materials were incredibly useful, apart from the Goals section in Week 4 - I didn't really find a connection with communicating effectively.

I really enjoyed the videos and the case studies/ stories presented in the videos, they really help me understand the concept in a real life manner.

Way too much information. I feel it needed to be two courses rather than one. Otherwise, really good content. Thank you.

Could be more focused on communication skills
Video examples of excellent communicators would also help and inspire

I think the course could be improved by adding some exercises so that students can practice what they learn.
