I enjoyed this course--it gives a useful and broad overview of Graphic Design, discussing artists in historical contexts as well as unpacking some of the philosophies that informed their work.

This course gave me a lot of important information about the birth and rise of the Graphic Design as a stand alone profession. It was a great opportunity to fulfil my knowledge.

This course provided a solid foundation in graphic design - though limited to a Western history. Today it seems as though Bauhaus-influenced minimalism is an all-encompassing design approach. As a new designer, it would have been beneficial to understand alternative or reactionary approaches (maximalism is a new design buzzword, for example) and traditions from outside the USA/Western Europe schools of design - especially as these are difficult things to research independently.

The course being concentrated exclusively on the design ideas of United States, it's quite literally "some ideas from the history of graphic design". Some of the choices for the contents of the course were, from the continental point of view, rather odd, though that did not make them any less interesting. As a summary: the course was interesting enough to be passed through.

I found this course very interesting and intensive. There is so much history to understand, interpret and re-contextualise as a designer.

A nice introductory course.
However, I found the latter half of the course too skewed towards the USA.

I found this course boring because there was so much history and so many things have to be remembered.

hard to follow. Often the main points were not made or clearly highlighted. Very western-centered history. Either adjust content or note that this is focused on American and European history rather than global/general history

It was a good course, but it fell short of my expectations, I didn't expect that we wouldn't just study biographies or the history of graphic design.

This course is worst about ideas from the history of graphic design and in the history of graphic designing courses. The videos were so long and boring I had to skip them and I just completed this because I wanted to complete the specialization but this course is the worse of all courses
