In gereral, the course in The Cosmopolitan Medieval Arabic World is very interesting.

The different knowledge shared along the weeks is associated with sociey, its infrastructures, religion, commercial activities - trade, slaves and mameluks, cultural development, orientalism and translation movements.

In my opinion, from all the readins, only two of them were not that interesting and I feel that I lost too much time paying attention to it. The exams by the end of each module should be more straight to the information learnt.

Overall, the knowledge I got from it will be very important in my job.

Phenomenal course! Really enjoyed learning about the different topics covered and taking part in forum discussions. However, I'm only rating 4 stars because I was unable to access some of the material like the podcasts as the links didn't work or material wasn't available for whatever reason. Other than that, I'd like to give a big thank you to Prof. Petra Sijpesteijn, the assistants and course peers.

This was a very enlightening and informative course. I learned about many things that I didn't know about before. I greatly enjoyed the lectures and the readings and am now very interested in learning more about the Medieval Arabic world. My only issue with this course is that the subtitles for the videos need to be improved. There is a lot of misspelling in the subtitles for the videos.

There is some engaging material in this course. In fact, I think I will probably access and refer to some of the materials again in the future. However, the best thing about the course was that I learnt that I could register for a JSTOR account and read a certain number of articles for free each month.

A very interesting course which opened my eyes for the history of the medieval world.

Like with other Coursera courses, the transcripts were te weakest links in the course. Obviously there is no one that is proofreading them before they are published.

Interesting subject, generally high-quality presentations, and well organized. Covered a broad range of issues (economic, social, governmental, scientific) to give a better feel for what was going on in this area at the time.

Overall, a very good introduction to the medieval Islamic world. Down points were that some of the reading was extremely heavy and the Soundcloud files often didn't work.

It was an amazing experience studying this course with Coursera, it has many fascinating stories which caught my attention and I would like to revisit them someday.

A very good course that challenges a lot of stereotypes. A few of the links need replaceing as they have broken though.

Very interesting over view of the medieval Arabic world. I learned a lot from this course.

Links to podcasts, part of the class offering, were broken.
