Okay foundation of knowledge, but the delivery wasn't the most effective. The professor just reads off a page, you can even see his eyes moving as he reads. I was hoping coursera courses were more like lecture recordings or the professor talking while drawing on a whiteboard or animations play. The tone of the professor was very monotonous, which also did not aid in learning. Most of the time it felt like there was no context to what he was saying or no link to previously discussed topics. The content of the course is also several years old and some of the links they provided are no longer accessible.

While the content of the course was useful in providing an understanding of the basic concepts of electricity and "the grid," I found the video lectures to be frustratingly monotonous. The professor appeared and sounded as if he was simply reading from a teleprompter which made these segments of the course dull and dry. The linked resource videos and articles at the end of each week were far more engaging and informative.

A little boring, since it just consisted of the Professor reading cue cards on screen. Definitely lecture like and not engaging. I suggest using more animations, clips of real life distribution centers, and more schematics and flow charts.

Not very ADHD nor Gen Z friendly, I lost interest very quickly in monotonous lessons.

The course is very basic. Its lacks detailed information. I have got more information from a 1hr 30min webinar about distribution network and smart grid than from this course. This course is for beginners who doesn't have the basic knowledge of electricity

I think the course has a lot of place to improve. I am a student of electrical engineering and i can say you can learn EEE in much more sophisticated and fun way.
