While the course content was easy to understand and to follow, the quizzes were somehow odd.

I had the feeling they were more designed to make you fail (especially as a non native speaker) than to test if you worked through the course content.

Some of the material is quite hard to get access to and the quizzes are poorly put together;

It is a pity because i was keen on learning more about communication in the workplace and was looking forward to this course.

A lot of reading material is unavailable (link does not work or it is behind paywall).

I also found the videos lacking. For example, there were 5 important tips and only one was given, before jumping at next topic.

There wasn't a lot of information inside the video and the test's questions hade multiple possible answer.

However, the links to ressources such as HarvardReview or Inc.com were pretty good and usefull.

the course material, videos etc. were not really compelling - I found myself wandering off in between. I came away with some good information, but I've been left dissatisfied overall.

a nice "entry level" course lacking a forum discussion... was not even able to report some issue with videos and no explanation provided with quizzes results :/

Explanations were too wordy, lecture slides didn't not contain much of the information discussed and the presentation had very little visual reinforcement.

this course is not fulfilled my expectation. Study material or PPT is not help me to learn. No big techniques are explained. Overall disappointment .

The value of this course is the collection of reading materials that can be found in the same place. The lectures don't add much to the course.

The material was well delivered but I found it distracting to go between the video lecture and the additional material.

Cheesy. If you mess up in your delivery, press the little button and start over! Needs some judicious editing.

Brief, high-level ideas. Could use more specific examples.

Tiny lectures and no readings from professional books

I did not meet my expectations from the course

Some concepts are explained poorly.

Relativelly generic and shallow.

thanks it just needs more time

I thought it was going to be good. Did the first week videos and Lectures. But I feel cheated because it will not let me take the quiz to move on without paying for the course. No where did I ever see anything that said ahead you had to pay -- if you didn't want a certificate or to do the whole specialization. Coursera used to be a platform I used and recommended. No more.

Cannot believe UCI have just very short course, compared to san diegi/Duke/Virginia/Copnehagan who have courses worthing thousands of dollars for free as compared to this one. UCI have exception course in objective C which is worth the money to be paid, but this series, are extremely below the expected standard

It very short and brief. I was thinking it will also emphasise and help us to grow our communication skills for the 21st century communication, but it's just a brief explanation of some changes and nothing more.

Way too much reading material. Not enough video lectures/ explanations. The professor also needs to speak a little slower for people to follow.

what a shame for coursera to host this type of mooc filled with pseudoscience. The worst thing is that no one seems to notice it...

disappointed material, too much "information" and extension reading, spend too many time to digust and very few effeciency

Very generic, no exercises proposed, no very applicable concepts.

This is the worst course of the series.

I don't want to input my credit card in order to do the entire session.
