The first 4 weeks of the course were great and very interesting. Unfortunately I couldn’t access the materials for week 5. The article for the UN said ‘page not found’ and the reading said you needed log in details. I was also unable to read my peer feedback for my final assignment.

The course is ok. The tasks are very easy and basic, the videos are informative enough. The first few readings seem pretty unrelated, but they get better and towards the end become more interesting and informative. You can complete the whole thing in a couple of days no problem.

Interesting online course as introduction with brief concepts and definitions on diplomacy, its role, influence and interaction in the modern world. Recommend others to attend this online course to gain required intro knowledge on diplomacy.

Good course that provides the basics of what diplomacy is. I suppose I was expecting something more advanced which obviously would be an advanced degree course. Nervetheless, a good start to understanding diplomacy.

I would love to see this interesting lightweight introduction grow into a solid university level course with more reading, weekly added content, tests, academic discussions and a proactive moderator at the forum.

Very limited points and questions are being explored. However it makes use of very knowledgable people, and allows for different points of perspectives in order to formulate your own idea of what diplomacy is.

It is a basic course for those who want a general idea on diplomacy, the information wasn't up to date, and there wasn't a lot of feedback in the debate area. It had low participation, at least in my cycle.

Quite an interesting course. Some of the readings I couldn't access, and videos lacked depth in terms of subject, Overall was enjoyable and recommend for those interesting in international affairs.

Fruitful materials for reference, yet the structure of whole course relies on bite-size interviews of scholars, which might seem lack of systematic teaching throughout the whole subject.

This MOOC touches only lightly on Diplomacy. While its title states that it'll be addressing "the modern world", many requested readings are actually from the 20th century.

The course was very instructive. I appreciated the readings and videos very much. The course could benefit from more videos further explaining the various readings.

It is alright but several people take advantage of the lax review criteria to submit one letter reviews. Better grading system would be good. Material is all fine.

great introduction to the world of diplomacy, the videos are a bit repetitive unfortunately. But still worth my time as I started knowing nothing formal at all.

Its overall is good course you have to one of them diplomacy in action how they happened how they negotiate n solve the problem in videos

Yeah, this course is REALLY different from other MOOCs. I wonder if I can learn anything from a course that contains such little content.

More timely and relevant text material would have greatly helped in broadening our understanding. Basic and easy for beginners to grasp.

Good to know how many academics and professions think about diplomacy but very few concrete concepts and examples given by lecturers

The course is easy to understand. However, it lacks practical application and just focused on concept explanation as tasks.

In comparison with other courses that I have passed, this course was inferior from the material and discussion perspective.

Short and crispy.

It tells us about the functions, qualities and scope of Diplomacy in Modern World

Interesting yet far simpler than expected. I would recommend having more course materials.

It is very important of all level of people.and concern about world politics.

It was a great experience! Definitely gained more knowledge about diplomacy.

Nice introduction but very general, could have done with more depth.

The course was fine. I just cannot seem to find my certificate.
