It was a very informative course and it provided a lot of insights into many questions you may have about social interactions/settings. The course is well structured, and Professor Bloom's engaging animated lectures were a delight to listen to. I will recommend to anyone, despite your field of work/study, since it is relevant to everyday life.

Excellent material presented in a clear and engaging way. The animations are incredibly helpful. One area for improvement: all the readings are listed as taking "10 mins" which was frequently wildly inaccurate. Some reading material was approximately 8 times the length of others yet all said "10 mins". More accurate labelling would be helpful.

I think it is a useful course for everyone. You can learn a lot about yourself, about human development. The videos are really cool! The readings are for free, they are really informative, complex and understandable. In every lecture there are a lot of information, recommendation (readings, books, videos). It is complex, enjoyable. Thank you!

This course provides an overview of the fundamentals of psychology - almost every aspect of it. Further reading is provided in order to get a more in-depth knowledge of the subject matter. Professor Bloom was amazing and explained the content of the course in an engaging manner. This makes one of the best introductory courses on the platform.

I admire and respect this course's academic dexterity in encouraging that student's operate on their own flexibility and drive. Furthermore, it was quite informative and offered shrewd insight in the study, through its concepts and also by developing such insight and opinion in its students, allowing for an interactive and intelligent course.

Strongly recommended. I took an introduction to psychology class when I was doing my bachelor's degree. I didn't quite like the course was being constructed, so I did not learn much. However, the example of Professor Bloom gave and the structure of the course outline had draw me in again. I really appreciate this lecture, thank you very much!

The course was excellent, the videos are an animation of a lecture hall which made the material that much more lively. The professor is excellent, I would say that even if youre not particularly interested in Psychology, he would make you be.
The only issue is that now every other online course seems to be of inferior quality in comparison :)

It may sound redundant but it really is an introduction to psychology. I feel like I’ve been taught a lot and yet not enough; it’s left me happy but wanting more. It went beyond my expectations. Professor Bloom did an incredible job and so did Julia Veldman (the animator). All in all, a great 6 weeks. Thank you for a fulfilling experience.

I learned a lot of new things throughout the entire course. Particularly about human behaviors, emotions and development. I was never been so interested about this cause, I thought it would be a boring topic/course. This course is very interesting, you will learn a lot, and you will understand why Psychology course is a good one to take.

Great introduction course for those with no background in psychology but some interest and want to see whether they really are interested in the study of it. Very helpful to gage whether it's something you might want to continue studying/pursuing or not. Extremely fascinating content, very well delivered lectures and material, top course!

Very well structured and highly engaging content put out by Professor Bloom. He focuses on the important aspects and gives well represented examples. I am preparing for entrances to my second masters in Psychology having no bachelors in it and I found this course to be helpful in providing an outline and introduction for my preparation.

Wonderful course! Lectures are very engaging and the additional readings provided are relevant to the content being taught. Will give you just enough of an overview of such a broad field as psychology for you to either dive in deeper, or use what you have learned in your daily life and career. Worth every minute that was spent learning!

This course offers a comprehensive and thought-provoking insight into the discipline of psychology, with short but information-packed videos and readings that get straight to the point. I, like many others, took this as a 'taster' of sorts to see if I'd be interested in further pursuing this subject. Will definitely be sticking with it!

It's an amazing course, I absolutely recommend it to everyone, even if you're a beginner. I started it with absolutely no knowledge of Psychology, now I feel like I'm exploding of it (in a good way). Professor Bloom expalins every module very well and gives you plenty of readings to expand the informaitons and your knowledge as well. :)
