I had a wonderful learning experience. Kudos to Dr. George! Lectures are brief but very substantial, simulation videos are very helpful to how to do it and how not to do the psychological first aid.

Very interesting and indepth course. I did find accessing the Forum discussions a tad puzzling and getting back to the course was not always easy but overall well presented.

I really enjoyed the class and how it was easily broken down into 5 steps, RAPID. However, I would have liked some more examples/simulation videos of how to 'do it right.'

A good course to learn the basics of PFA.
I would have liked a response the answers to the triage practice in the forum. Otherwise, the course was engaging and interesting.

Would liked to have more examples and answers on Prioritizing based on evidence and risk factors. The video given felt insufficient to practice and no answers were given.

Useful information and techniques on how to help and talk to victims. Can use the same technique in our daily situation, always good to have compassion and understanding.

A very nice course. This course gives you a brief but concise idea on how to apply psychological first aid. It is very helpful when you want an insight in giving PFA.

Great course, learn a lot about how to listen and correctly ask questions. Using RAPID model is a good way to help people in need during a disaster. :) Thank you!

The PowerPoint slides are informative yet lengthy and boring at times. I hope Coursera can do something to make the lecture more interactive and less monotonous.

Apart from the simulation video. The content is only the powerpoint slide with professor Audio Description, so it is a bit flat. But the course is very useful.

As some of the quiz questions are not very clear to me due to my own misinterpretation leading me to fail the quiz. But good that allow particpants to retry

Easy and fairly informative. I wish they showed more examples with different situations, instead of repeating the same situation throughout the course.

I enjoyed this course. I think it would be good for many medical professionals, education administrators, and first responders to take and understand.

It's very useful for non-psychologist and it helps you learn more about psychological triage and useful interventions in acute psychological distress

Good introduction to PFA, easy to understand. I like that there were in-video questions as well as weekly assessments to help learn the material.
