Dear Professor,\n\nI am fascinated with week one, even though I work in the scientific side, also like history, nothing more rewarding than visiting and ancient place and know what happened... Thanks
Very interesting and fun course\n\nDr. Zelikow really captivates the attention of the students and brilliantly explains complex situations to the layman audience.\n\nLook forward to Part II !\n\n:)

•If I'd mention the most important and special merits of this course, I'll say TWO points; 1st: that the methodology of it really concentrates on the global history as a a DISTINCTIVE global history not just the sum of smaller nations' or inter-nations' history and 2nd: Its way of telling the sequence of the events from the perspectives of statesmen which the prof prefers to call "Situation-Problem-Solution Cycle". in another hand, talking about its cons; it's, in some ways, adopting the narrative of imperialist white world.. I have seen that obvious in many occasions through the course.

•*The initial portion of the course shows very good reasons behind rapid global development but
*The big picture of the world development was not summarized well enough in the end and
*The slides and drawing with the help of the stylus was very poor.
By Tianqi T
•the content was interesting, but the slides were poorly made and it was hard to take critical notes for quizzes
By Романенков В А
•So, I like it, but I'm not sure it ever useful to me. Although, it was interesting :)

•It's not a very good compromise to offer the quizzes for free but not the grades.
By Harshal P
•Quizzes were very minute fact oriented
By John T
•8 hour waiting period after 3 tries is a pain in the arse. One more try and i would have had it.

•I Want To Un Enroll.....
By Harman S A
•Although the content is interesting, I would have liked it better had the content and the instructor been a little more engaging.
By Pablo M
•Es una estafa.
No pude envar el cuestionario porque debo pagar sí o sí.
Eso no lo aclaran antes de inscribirse. Una pena.
By brian j
•This is a very "traditional" history class with huge blindspots and embarrassingly limited viewpoints.
