This was a great overview and platform for more discussion at my institution. I really got a lot out of the course.

The course was pretty interesting and useful, just a bit "basic" some times (good to have the possibility to skip those parts) and Johns Hopkins' student-focused in some sections.

Overall a very good course. As an "experienced" multilingual traveler, picked up on a few things, got a good refresher for other elements and will have a (slightly) different approach to traveling and working abroad. The personal tales brought back some memories of my own. No feedback from course instructors or fellow students, which was a bit disappointing. As such, I did not do the honors component as it would only be valuable if somebody would comment on it.

Curso interesante, sobre todo para aquellos que estamos inmersos en la educación internacional. Muchas de las experiencias compartidas en el curso son parte de mis propias experiencias. Muy importante los temas de salud, bienestar y seguridad y sobre todo las cuestiones éticas. Me hubiera gustado también ver aspectos relacionados con los viajes de estudiantes en grupo con fines de investigación o cursos electivos.

The content was great, but the main lecturer didn't speak with appropriate feeling. If she could improve her vocal quality, I think it would be easier for students to focus. Still, she was decent, and overall I was quite satisfied with everything.

The course is definitely good for a first-time traveller outside the USA, but as I have lived in 10 countries and worked in around 20 more ina 35-year timespan, I learned little new information from this course. It was fun taking it though.

Our instructor has been very specific and I like the way she explains everything. The week 5 module is not boring the presentation has been very creative. Thank you Hopkins University! :D

I may have missed something in the course description. This is clearly designed for Hopkins students and has very limited appeal to the general public. The content hardly corresponds to the course title.

Very basic known stuff. I didn't watch any of the videos and I just took the tests and I passed the course. It would be helpful if you have never left the country.
