Liked the topic and the many aspects of eHealth, the assignments.

Not good: There are no notes/ presentations to be downloaded, there are no quizzes during the videos to check the knowledge.

Also, some participants just copy and paste some (whatever) information from the internet and upload it as an assignment.

The course needs to make sure, that to achieve the point, where a student can submit, he or she has to spend real time and apply effort (e.g. frequent quizzes during videos, more demanding quizzes). Students who don't pass (imho at least 70%) should not be admitted to submit an assignment.

Often, these "students" are prompted to review the submissions of peers, at which point they copy these assignments and submit them as their own.

If no action is taken by coursera and the course providers, then the courses' value is going to be zero soon.

Very interesting material and video-based course structure, really useful for quick learning, a lot of different and challenging professional points of view, especially because coming from a market like Australia. Should be nice already thinking in a follow-up as technologies run fast and everything becomes obsolete very quickly. Congratulations again to the organizers!

Great introduction to how digital technology, especially apps, data and communication technology, is being used to support health and healthcare management. The course includes an introduction to a framework to rate apps more objectively. Of particular value is the multiple examples from clinicians on how digital technology is being deployed to improve healthcare delivery and quality.

I have been involved for the past 12 years in implementing EMR and other digital solutions. I found that this class did a very good job blending the concepts with the applied solutions. I had a great deal of fun attending this class, although initially I thought it was going to be a piece of cake. This class requires a lot of concentration and dedication. It is the very first class I took with Coursera and not only do not regret it, but I suggest anyone to take this class in this context of Covid-19 pandemics coupled with the fast growing digital tools that can be utilized to improve the quality of care provided to an individual. Kudo!

I enjoyed this course a great deal. I did not realize how much a person could do in the way of their own healthcare with phone apps and wearables along with social media and Telehealth. I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Thank you for all of the videos of actual healthcare professionals talking about that is available in healthcare. I also found it very interesting to review the science trials behind apps. It is a good idea to keep the science behind it reliable.

Very good course showing trends regarding the closer ties between technoogy and health care. An interesting accent during the course are two practical tasks to be performed based on the knowledge provided by the course. Exercises allow you to consolidate knowledge and give the opportunity for a moment of reflection ...

The course gives you a model on how to think eHealth and how to bring things together.

I liked to learn from Australia. Europe is rather old fashioned and does not use eHealth on a big scale. The course is very valuable. I hope there will be an update soon.
