to get the most you need to take notes during the videos. thus you can write final exam easily. what you wrote to the final exam is the what you get from this course. knowledge is scattered during the course and not well organized. still if you take notes you can organize the info in your head.

Es un curso muy bien estructurado que va paso a paso siguiendo la secuencia de un documento de investigación, lo más interesante es que es la perspectiva de un estudiante, nos explica desde cero hasta la entrevista con un editor, eso es genial!! Gracias, es un gran curso!!

The course can become more interesting. If it will give more examples related to the writing of the scientific paper. There are many pdf files which we can watch to know something about a scientific paper. But real paper writing is more useful for the candidate.

Very interesting and well designed.

I personally liked very much the PhDs were sharing their knowledge with others, it was really emphatetic.

Well done, guys; a big virtual hug to Héloïse because I felt she was really having fun in teaching :-)
