Thank you for this excellent course! I really enjoyed the short videos, the concise notes, and quick quizzes (both at the end of each lesson, as well as the main point quizzes throughout the videos).

Even as a dinosaur nerd, I still learned a lot. Instructional videos with embedded quizzes were very well constructed. I'm just a bit bummed that I couldn't access the fossil viewer for some reason.

very interesting course. A bit heavy on scientific

names for dinosaurs, but I Suppose that’s to be expected.

The videos are entertaining but if the pdf is read through, its simple enough to take and pass the quiz.
