In this anatomy course, part of the Anatomy Specialization, you will learn how the components of the integumentary system help protect our body (epidermis, dermis, hair, nails, and glands), and how the musculoskeletal system (bones, joints, and skeletal muscles) protects and allows the body to move. You will engage with fascinating videos, lectures, and anatomical visual materials (illustrations and cadaveric images) to learn about these properties and functions.

i was being able to learn and strengthen my knowledge about basic anatomy through this course i am really grateful to the authority for giving such an opportunity to us for learn

The assessments covers a very long session however I enjoyed the overall session except the long time run of assessment. Usually assessment is taking more than an hour...

I am very pleased with the initial course in this specialization. The four-week duration is perfect for the amount of weekly hours I could put in. I expect to start the next course right away.

Very unformative and very easy to learn. In so many things, i learned a lot and even received the accurate informations.Thanks Courseera and Michigan univ. for this course.

Great course, lots of information! While the professor was extremely knowledgeable, the course did get a little tedious with all of the pure memorization.

The instructor was very good and gave very organized lectures. The slides and visuals were very helpful in understanding exactly what the instructor was talking about.

Fantastic Course. Can be a little fast paced regarding the information that is discussed in the video lectures, but if you take your time it is absolutely an incredible anatomy course.
MM
A very comprehensive course and straight to the point, only point i wished they included was more anatomical diagrams to explain to different bones and muscles.

Professor Alsup is an amazing anatomy professor. She is charismatic and very knowledgable. Almost at no point at any time was my attention away from the content. Well done! Great job UMICH!

Great in depth course! I went from knowing hardly anything to learning so much! I have discovered that the more I learn the more things there are to learn.

i had 3 issues with this course :
1- the instructor's way of teaching is kinda boring.
2-the MCQs do not match with the instructor's video
3-cadivers are really ill defined
4-subtitles had many fatal mistakes and weren't reviewed and change when reported

This course would benefit from a competent instructional design professional. Pedagogically, this is a course that simply lists anatomical parts. There is no synthesis of information which would help the student truly understand and retain knowledge of anatomy. The lectures often don't match the tests and are clearly not in the order they were made.
the visuals are not very helpful, since the cadaveric images lack detail and contrast to truly be educational.
The video lectures either should be done by professional actors or lecturers that are engaging and aware of camera angles (showing bones which are invisible at the given angle and then testing on it is poor pedagogical practice).
Overall, the information is presented in often too detailed or insufficiently detailed fashion, which leaves one with more questions than answers.
Its an entry level course, but its actually very well created and organized. I liked it very much. Im on medical school and enrolled to refresh my memory and it helped a lot
I am so thankful for this course, it was to the point and well informed.
I am a very visual learner and I had a lot of trouble following along with everything and accurately labeling. Especially during the bone section it would be better to have diagrams rather than pointing to a bone. All the diagrams used were from a real cadaver which was interesting to see however, since there were so many things it was hard to distinguish completely and it would have been perfect if there was also a drawn example to compare it too; it would also have helped for the students so they can easily draw it. Finally, every section was well organized but I think having the overall view and placement in the body would've helped to fully process all the information.
Excelente contenido y excelente profesor. Además de tener contenido muy completo es muy fácil de estudiar y la información es exacta (sin tanta paja). LO RECOMIENDO TOTALMENTE.
Excellent class! Great coverage of important material, clear presentations and images and fair quizzes. It would be nice to have PDF downloads of the presentation slides.
Well compiled course for understanding the topics as well as enabling the readers to make contribution.

Puedo decir que fue exelénte las explicaciones que se daba acerca de cada tema, asà mismo al momento de explicar las partes lo hacia de forma que era comprensible y los ejemplos eran muy útiles.
Very interesting topic, and the explanations are very clear. I missed some more advanced graphics for some lessons, not just the body
the level of this course was more scientific than cousrse i had taken it in my university
very informative and thorough. Great info provided.
Great explanations, useful graphics, great teacher.
great refresher course. very clear language.
Great review course.
Excellent!
