The information is very well structured by the form of delivery makes it difficult to follow. I would suggest more visual representations, schematics, summaries.

Good balance of theory, research and practical application. Caution should be considered in how some of the information is applied at each unique organization.

While giving you many explanations, it also focuses on too many authors. It is good to know the authors, but not to have too many questions focused on them.

Ein sehr gut gemachter und Strukturierter Kurs mit aktuellen Videos welche eher kürzer sind dafür aber verständlicher und besser in den Alltag einzubringen.

Good coverage. need to reduce some repetitions. beween video and text.

Some of the written content is vast and is to be literally used as reference book.

It was quit educative as well as informative.

However, I would have preferred more elaborate sessions for each topic taken.

Great job all the same.

The last week of the course is a little bit unstuctured because the last professor didn’t use slides or schemes. It was hard to follow.

Some units are better than others, namely the week 4 & 6 are to be improved - too dry and academic. also needs more in-video slides.
