A simplified course that targets areas of business writing which most of us tend to oversee. In this era of digitalisation and information overload, this back to basics method was really refreshing.

This course was short, poignant and mindful of our busy lives, while teaching us all how to be more impactful in our writing. This is just what I was looking for to give me an extra edge at work!

A simple to understand course on a topic that can be daunting to analytical thinkers. I have immediately tried a few lessons from this course and noticing some positive results.

The content is useful, but most of it is text-based. I wished there were more short videos and one assignment for each module to apply what we learn.

The course was very short and very basic. I do not think it is fair to call it "High-Impact Business Writing" when all you get is an introduction to business writing. It would be nice to have a more extensive course on this subject. I would retake it if it was improved. My rating reflects the lack of high-quality content with more examples.

The content is interesting (although far simplier than I expected, especially in the second module), but the presentation is a put off at times. The speaker loses track every now and then, PPT presentations timing and video editing (more precisely, video cut and paste) could help some revising.

I don't understand how this course has 4.5 stars. This course is stuck in 1999. The production value is terrible--- the speaker stumbles on her words, the slides use clipart, there's a section on email and what BCC means? I downloaded one of the files and the bullet points were Lorem Ipsum--- C'mon Coursera--- time to upgrade this course. I want my $ back!

Amazing topic. Clearly impated with this course, I have to save it in a way that I keep it on my knowledge and on my ebookstore. My preferred material: 1# Guidelines and Etiquette for Virtual Meetings Before the Meeting Put your camera at eye level; use books or a platform if necessary to raise it.
#2 Revising, Editing, and Proofreading Writing reports or other quality business documents is typically a process that takes time, and very rarely (if ever) can someone write a complete document or message without some level of revising, editing, and proofreading. Understanding how to use each of these three approaches will help you modify and improve the content, quality, and presentation of your writing. I love writing so I have not had enough time to do it, probably per the overcharge of material in this season but like every writer in the life, We will have to go a resting place and just do it!, write.

This is an amazing opportunity unfortunately I have to catch up. I plan on doing this on the 3 day weekend. I have put time aside specifically for my classes. I have already put it to practice just haven't had a chance to do the quiz on lesson 1 or work on lesson 2. Again this is really a great way to help people out. Hopefully I will be in a position to get some certificates out of it as well. Thank you for this wonderful experience. :)

The course was very effectively presented. It had just the right amount of information to cater to a diverse audience; not too much, not too little. The resources provided were also engaging reads.
Certain sections of the course, like the ones on business letter writing and emails could be reworked to adapt to the current business scenario.

This course is highly recommended. In an information-overloaded era, communication is way too important to be left to mere "business practices". I appreciated the reviews: it was stimulating (and rewarding), discover that "clear and concise" might not deliver a "clear and informative

Very helpful. Learned how to write with clarity and brevity as well as how to make appropriate language and word choices for that audience. This module also addresses the structure and important considerations for the most frequently used document types for business applications.
