The beginning this course starts off way too slow. In addition, there are too many products being sold. It made me doubt the quality of the course.

Love the broader insight into social media and new tools. Would really like to hear some mention of Instagram trickled through these discussions.

I did't like the peer grade assignment, I lost 2 weeks for not summiting on time and it was a bit costly, but i hope the course will get better.

Lots of content repetition and many referals to other Moocs. It's obvious an introduction course. Expectations of other moocs are high now ;-)

Good instructor, but the material is a bit outdated - despite some updates from 2018. Very basic information overall.

This course wasn't really helpful. It didn't need to be a full course as most people understand what social is.

An okay introduction to the specialization; hopefully, the future courses will get into more detail.

Useful information if a tad outdated. I already had learned much of this from YouTube videos.

the professor was a little bit dry and repetitive but otherwise the content was interesting!

Very basic intro. Could have more content and not just broad overview of upcoming courses.

Very basic dive into social, feels like it was structured for an older audience.

The weekly classes were very short. But the teachers are very knowledgeable.

Iteresting and usrful experience, ganed valuable information and knowledge.

Great content. Instructor reads lecture a bit too rapidly to digest.

This course in informative, but not very, and it is rather boring.

content is a little redundant through out course

Some content is outdated. Needs to be updated.

A little outdated but still worth it.

Could be more actual!

Need more details!

not updated

The course was a little helpful, I think some of the suggestions and methods are outdated and the course needs to be reviewed. Still some helpful points, hope rest of the specialization will be better. Previously I had taken the Digital Media Specialization from University of Illinois, that one had much more content and new things to learn than this one.

Not recommended for medium or advanced users. As the name says this is just an introduction in Social Media, so if you are already using it you don't have much to learn from this one. I look forward to the other courses from this Specialisation for more in depth content.

There was a lot of fluff in this course-too much talking about what we are going to learn versus actually presenting information efficiently and effectively. The whole thing unfortunately needs a major overhaul and could be condensed into a single section.

The 2020 update feels outdated now. I also would have appreciated some younger guests to speak on new age social media platforms. TikTok was barely mentioned and is probably the biggest platform right now.
