This was a great course. I learned so much about Covid19. This course gave me a more in-depth knowledge of Covid19. I loved the fact that after each session, we had to take a quiz. Professor provided some really great examples. I definitely would love to take another course with her.

The fact that a"Colored" women was used as the anger person seem to stick to a bias or the angry black women.. Expected at this point in my life, and thus outside that I thought this was a very well put together. I would also like to thank you for the detailed information provided.

Interesting perspective and nicely structured. The presenters voice is a bit trying for non native US English listeners. Rather a lot of focus on communication skills that are pretty general. I would have liked some more info on figures in regard to this disease and their statistics.

The methods and techniques employed in this course presented the material in a clear and comprehensible manner. I found it met the educational goals set forth in the introduction and is a useful tool in becoming comfortable with the nature of Covid-19 and the Contact Tracing process.

This was an excellent course I love how it was very engaging and that there were quizzes to check your understanding along the way. As a public health professional I also enjoyed refreshing my memory on epidemiology and infectious disease. Everyone should take this course! Well done!

Good, basic start to understanding the terms and some of the possible conditions of Contact Tracing. The provided scenarios were well thought out and the production value was good. The narration of the material was always slow and clear plus there was text with which to follow along.

This course provided important, comprehensive information regarding COVID-19 and clearly demonstrated the effectiveness of contact tracing to aid in curbing the pandemic. It thoroughly, yet concisely, described the methods and ethics required for effective contact tracing. Thank you!

It is very informative and very helpful specially this pandemic. I will use the knowledge to spread what to do and not to do also I will try to apply as contact tracer because now, we badly need to monitor who spread the virus. Thank you John Hopkins University for this free course.

Great course ! I learnt a lot.

The course is well organized. I loved listening to the videos,

you can feel that the Lecturer, Emily Gurley, cares and loves

health studies. I would love to study medicine and a full medical degree delivered

this way.

Thank you for offering this course.

hope others may also apply into these free courses offered online. it is a very useful course especially this pandemic days. it is important to know the basics of this virus, the basics of contact tracing, it's cases and contacts, the tools use and skills in effective communication.

Hello, I am so grateful for this instructor’s Madame Dr. Emily Gurley, amazing ability to articulate her knowledge, and passion for what she does for humanity. I learned a lot more than I had assumed I would, and am so grateful that the University extended its availability for free.

I am a teacher who is concerned about returning to school in the fall. This course provided me with needed information that will help me provide feedback to my administration, colleagues and other stakeholders regarding protecting ourselves and those with whom we come into contact.

Very informative and helpful the lectures were well prepared and easy to follow along creating an exciting and stressful learning experience during these very difficult times we're all in together. I highly recommend this course for everyone for the good of public health and safety.

Excellent training particularly liked the accompanying video demonstrations of effective interviews; as well as the simplified yet detailed manner of explaining the infectious and incubation period AND the difference in isolation and quarantine.

Good job Thanks!

This course was extremely informative and provided great insight into the logistics involved with COVID-19 and how critical it is in maintaining public health. I highly recommend professionals to take this course to obtain the proper information in order to actively help save lives.

Taking this course was very fun. The course was very helpful in learning about Covid-19 and how to do contact tracing. I like how the professor explains everything very thorough in her videos. This course can also be very helpful if anyone is thinking of working as a contact tracer.

Es un curso general sin embargo bastante completo donde explican de manera en la que puedas entender realmente lo que lees, esta información no es sólo teórica exclusiva de la enfermedad por el coronavirus sino que además aporta habilidades que podemos utilizar en otras situaciones.

Got to know a lot about the reality of how Contact Tracing works. Happy to be certified but I wanted to help but only with this certificate I was not allowed to help contact tracing in my city. I would love to see Coursera bringing more real and practical courses like this. Thanks.

I thoroughly enjoyed this training. It was very well presented. It gave me a clearer understanding on incubation period and infectious period as well as an abundance of great information that I can continue to educate and mitigate the spread of the disease to colleagues and family.

A review coming from a high school student! I actually found the course really interesting, since it's beyond learning content. We really get to see how a contact tracer engages with the contacts. Also, the length of the course is bearable, I'd say. Definitely worth signing up for.

This course was extremely well broken-down; even without instructor interaction, every question that occurred to me was answered at some point within the modules. Helpful visuals, very informative without being extraneous, and the sample-call videos were very well done and helpful.

This course was an amazing learning experience. I've learn how to talk to people the right was that will not send a bad vibe . The instructor was very clear and knowledgeable of the subject matter. Thank you for this very informative course. I learnt a lot regarding contact tracing

excellent course, I feel very confident in taking on a job as a Contact Tracer. The videos and long with the printed verbiage to visually read is exactly how I learn. Detailed, interesting information and great scenarios to really make the learning as real as possible. Thank you

This was a very clear and straightforward course. I feel that the information acquired has been presented in a way that there should be no difficulty applying it in real world time and circumstances; I look forward to the opportunity to do so and prove my assessment to be on point.

This course was well written and delivered. Concise, with excellent feedback and support for the learner. I would definitely recommend it to others who are interested in contact tracing for any communicable illness. I look forward to using my newly acquired skills in the workplace.
