The course is stimulating, but the materials can be long-winded; some of the readings are 50+ pages long, and it can be tough to assess which parts are relevant to the assignments and in how much depth to study them. That being said, the course provides excellent readings on diversity, equity, and inclusion and approaches the topic critically, not just from a standpoint of creating new programs, but emphasizing the need for institutional transformation.

The course was excellent! It is packed with eye-opening and useful information. The exercises were just right and the fifth star is reserved because it wasn't face-to-face assessment and instruction. Bravo!

Very interesting course and easy to follow. Sometimes a bit slow, since I suppose it's how the professor feels comfortable in front of the camera. Thanks for making this available to the world!

It's a great course. Informative and very need for who wants to learn more about issues related to equity, diversity and inclusion and leadership in higher education.

Interesting course. The last two modules were the best.

Saludos cordiales.

Este curso es excelente todos los profesores deberían hacerlo.

Mi única inquietud es con relación a la asignación de la unidad 4, la cual requiere de 4 calificaciones por parte de compañeros del curso. Mi sugerencia es que sea bajado a dos calificaciones para que el curso sea más fluido.

Si observan la pestaña de "discusión", se podrán dar cuenta de que hay personas con varios años que terminaron el curso, y están rogando que otros les califiquen sus trabajos.

Creo que todos estamos aquí para obtener un mayor conocimiento, mejorar nuestras competencias y desempeño laboral y profesional, pero también obtener la evidencia( certificado) de ello, y mucho más si es de una prestigiosa institución, como lo es la Universidad de Michigan.

Gracias

Nota: Para poder apoyar a algunos compañeros, ya he calificado más de 30 asignaciones hasta ahora. Pretendo llegar a las 50.

Gracias nuevamente.

"I have seventeen plus years of experience taking training courses, therefore not easily impressed. Being in the academic world, I must say the course was excellent, one of the best I've experienced on a online MOOC format. I couldn't imagine him doing a better job of seamlessly walking students through a breadth of information in a remote environment. Professor did a fabulous job especially his explanation of Equaity, Diversity & Inclusion in the academic world"

Dr. Burkahardt performance in explaining the many complex factors, including providing great understanding of the pressing issues in Diversity, Equity and Equality in Educational institutions was outstanding. He explains with great passion.

The course it’s fantastic and it provides valuable tools to Development of Advocacy, leadership skills.

Great course that opened my eyes to subtle forms of exclusion. The lessons provoked me to find creative leadership strategies to include marginalized groups. Geared towards higher education but skills will transfer to many fields of interest.

Although I have been involved with this type of work for many years now, there is always something new to learn, consider and grow from. My one and only recommendation is that you find a way to allow for more than just one presenter.

This course is definitely one that anyone can benefit from taking, even if you work in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Continuing education is vital in the field of education and I appreciated learning from others around the world.

I Love this course so much, I can learn about higher education about equity diversity and inclusion. The amazing experience in this course that I can learn by free. thanks a lot, Coursera and Michigan University

This class is an excellent course for anyone interested in learning the details of building a diversity, equity, and inclusion strategic plans. The University of Michigan did a great job with this course.

This course has lots of great tools and resources that will deepen your understanding of leadership through a DEI lens. The workload is very manageable and you can work at your own pace on your own time.

This was a well-designed and delivered course. I learned so much about leading EDI initiatives and reflecting on my own thoughts about how to apply EDI strategies in my own unit at the college.

I really enjoyed the inclusion of the covering HBCUs during this course. That was an unexpected and welcomed area of content. This course was very inspiring and I learned so much!

I enjoyed the readings and videos. The information was engagaing. There was history included to help us understand how things have changed. Well done!

I enjoyed this course and learned a lot from it. I very much appreciated the novel approaches that felt different from many other DEI trainings and work.

I wish there was more information on tangible differences and ideas one could make or follow into higher education and access in higher ed.

This course was highly supportive of processes I was familiar with but brought in a deeper way of thinking as well as new approaches.

Really liked this course. A lot of information that needs to be a focus for not only higher education but our country as a whole.

I learnt important concepts and tools to address the question of equity and inclusion at higher educational institutions.

It was a good course to analyze the situational environment of the educational institutes that i have been leading with

This has been a very interesting and informative course. I learned a great deal and highly recommend it. Thank you.

It was an outstanding experience learning from this course about Equity Diversity, and Inclusion in Higher Education.
