This course was in part interesting and in part quite uninteresting. I would have liked to see more natural way of lecturing, it mostly felt very technical and automatic. If you have seen the videos, you know what I mean. I also find that week 5 about cows, pigs and chickens might cause someone to become vegetarian or vegan, as some actions and conditions that are considered to be "normal", (for me) definitely don't seem that. Overall the course got more interesting in the last weeks.

Data trumps all.

Whether its understanding behavioural aspects or welfare needs of animals- right from our pets, to livestock, to wild animals, and the ones used in the entertainment or trade industries, it all stems from picking up on things that scientists, zoologists, veterinarians, animals behaviourists and handlers have spent years, if not decades, studying and documenting.

As I near the completion of my first year of legal studies, this MOOC gave me a deep insight into the different research methodologies that have been utilised to better understand animals and influence legislation world over.

Knowing that NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad has started India's first Centre for Animal Law, that will create curriculum on animal welfare laws and issues in our country, leaves me hopeful for the future.

To all those who have an affinity for animals, I could not suggest a better MOOC than this. To those who have pets, this course may be the eye-opener you never knew you needed.

I really loved this course. Considering I own and run a leading kennel and cattery myself, it gave me new insights to my understanding of animals. Also since I'm working on journalism for several publications, it has added to me storehouse of knowledge for writing better and more iformed articles and news reports on animals in general.

Content is up to date and freely available at any time. Very much so enjoyed the additional recourse/ reading area for each module, gave plenty of reading and exploring of the subjects however some links within these sections are not working. easy to find the information that's listed via the web.

I was aware of almost all the sections in animal welfare, including livestock, pet and captive animals . Other than that, the lecturers were really interesting, and their methods of teaching were so attractive. This short course has undoubtedly reignited my enthusiasm for animal welfare.

Loved this couse! So informative and relevant, would 100% recommend! I'll definitely be able to apply my new knowledge in my day-to-day life which is exactly what I wanted. Brilliant professors, clear information, accessible deadlines, I am delighted with the entire MOOC!

This is a mind-blowing and very important course that teaches you more about animal behaviour and welfare. Qualified lectures give insight to the true meaning of welfare and behaviour and help us detach from the believe that animals feel the way we do.

More than amazing ..

The lecturers are excellent, they explain in a wonderful and uncomplicated way, the videos have provided useful information about the course in an easy way, as if you were really with them at the locations.

I highly recommend it.

I have learned so much about animal welfare issues that I'm better able to articulate my own thoughts and perspectives on it. I've also used what I've learned to create a philosophical framework for my pet sitting business.

I enjoyed this course for it provides clarity and insights on Animal Behaviour and Welfare.

This helped to address my learning gaps and strengthen my knowledge and skills when working with animals.

Great job!

I am not good talking or writing English but I simply get ıt the basic logic Thank you for doing like this Maybe I would like to be an academician like valuable teachers in this school in the future.

Extremely beneficial to anybody who wants to have their questions about animal welfare answered! I have learned so much and wish to use this knowledge to improve the welfare of animals.

I enjoyed learning about the complexities and current knowledge in animal behavior. This course covered a variety of topics that are taught in a very comprehensible manner.

Surprisingly good and thorough. I was worried it would be simplistic and patronising but I couldn't have been more wrong. Really enjoyable and I learnt a lot

I've learned a lot from this course. I strongly recommend anyone interested in animal welfare and behaviour spend some time taking this course!

Well designed, insightful, comprehensive. A great introduction into animal behaviour!

Very informative and comprehensive

well labeled and taught course

Fantastic

Best course to learn animal psychology It was offered freely but unfortunately it's certificate is going to be paid😓

Es muy interesante el contenido y los artículos adicionales a ellos. Lo único malo es que no todos los vídeos tiene los subtitulos al español y es algo molesto eso. Fuera de eso el curso muy bien.

very long and same information is restated each week. basic knowledge of animal welfare allows you to complete tests without reading the information

I learned a lot but I think this course should have been more challenging as far as the quizzes go... :(
