It was a superior lecture and the wonderful part about it was that it had not only excellent delivery of contents but also various graphic materials .

They allowed me to deeply understand your lecture because of their informative and interesting ones.

I really appriciate your efforts and service.

Excellent course. Professor Philip Zelikow has an excellent presentation style, congenial with an even pace and tone. He successfully explains complex issues in a manner that is easy to understand. This course really helped me to better understand today's world based on a historical context.

Superb course on world history. I've just finished watching all the videos in this and the previous course. Twice.

The pace is wonderful. The blend of facts, anecdotes, notes, photographs, graphics, etc. keeps you hooked till the end.

Thanks for making this great course available to the world.

As a civil engineer i would say that this course has give me deep in sights about development and policy concerning nations, i find it very informative and useful. i would sincerely like to extend my gratitude to Dr. Philip Zelikow for wonderful presentation and understandable language.

This course is excellent to provide analysis of situation, problems, choices made at the time of the world events. I have learned a great deal. As many other students in the forum responded, I do hope that some reading lists can be provided to support further reading on relevant topics.

In combination with the first part of the course it give the full overview of the drive forces, reasons, choices and and consequences from 1700s till 2013. Thank you a lot for this course! I find this course really grounded and complete. This helps me to stage my worldvies very much.

The professor is excellent. He is incredibly knowledgable, and was able to articulate specific moments in history through much wider lenses, describing broad trends that were happening, and other choices that key people in history could have made. I enjoyed this class tremendously.

The best Coursera course I have ever taken. A true expert in history, Professor Zelikow is also a great teacher. He emphasizes on how to analyze a historical event, what could have happened, all things considered. I am very grateful for having the opportunity taking his class.

Like the first part this was outstanding. Even if you know a lot about history this will help you put more of it together and understand how international and local forces work to influence events. Rather than the usual focus on the what, there is an intense focus on the why.

This is long course but compared to the vast amount time of history it covers, it can be considered short. I absolutely loved. It is not like traditional history course the approach is more analytical and it made it so much enjoyable and helped me understand more thoroughly.

I found the presentations informative. Nice style of delivery by the professor. It was totally lecture based which was fine for this course. Sometimes it's nice to have some readings. The Course is now 'old' from 2013, so there isn't much activity in the discussion forums.

Thank you Professor Zelikow. It was an honour to be part of the course "The Modern World, Part Two".

The way you brought together Economics, Literature, Popular culture and of course History to help us make sense of the direction/s in which the world moved in this period.

Great information, engaging unbiased tutor (with the talent of a gifted storyteller) and at last one course that really talks about modern world history as a whole without just remaining and focusing on the WWI and II from only our western world's perspective. Thank you!

Excellent survey of history, and I personally appreciate the amount of effort the professor put into organizing the material. He really sets the bar for online presentation, and I would not hesitate to recommend this course to anyone who is interested in world history.

It was a real pleasure to participate in the course. Professor Zelikow has all the skills of an excellent teacher. He is not just demonstrating what he knows, he also guides our attention to sensitive and key points that clarify complex situations. A wonderful course!

TThis is far the best course I have taken in this platformplayfoplatformplayfoplatformsplatform I want to use this opportunity to ThankthanThanktThank professor Zelikow and the university of Virginia and other who were directly or indirectly involved in this course.

suggest to issues a single unified certification for those who passed both parts or don't print the word Part One and two as both are covering different period of history. having printed part 1 and 2, almost suggests that ,there might be more parts than indicated.

An exceptional experience. I did it first back in 2014, with all the tests. I have since downloaded it and been through the videos for parts 1 and 2 several times. If you want a broad understanding of the last 250 years of history you will find this hard to beat.

This is an excellent course. It provides a very good overview of world history since 1910, highlighting key events and providing the context in which decisions affecting those events were made. It whets my appetite for a more detailed treatment of this period.

It is a wonderful course. I highly recommend taking it soon after completing part one because of the way it builds on information described in part I. Information about money systems and thoughts the key world leaders thought at crossroads in history were fa

Loved this course! Fascinating and logical discussion of historical events, potential reasons behind their occurrence. I especially like that the course is not focused only on America or Europe! It covers cause & effects in Asia, Latin America, Africa, etc.

I loved the energy and passion and curiousity of Prof Zelikman. Really good course moving through the major events of the last 100 years. It really helps to get a sense of context and feel that the difficulties we face today are not unique to human history.

Excellent course, professor Zelikow is an excellent teacher-speaker who not only explain the history but also helps us to understand why things happen, the situation, the choices made and it effects. I took the two parts, I highly recommend both of them.

Love it very much. Wish some long presentations could be broken down to shorter ones and make it a 12-15 week course. So, the study hour can be reduced to within 1 hr or so for fulltime employees and students who have many other tasks to complete daily.

A great, encompassing course on the global history of the past century. Professor Zelikow is a fantastic lecturer and has plenty of experience from his time as a diplomatic and government official. Highly recommended if you're interested in history.
