An extremely well developed course about not such a simple topic ir research methods. The instructors broke the topics down into easy to learn bytes such that an interested learner can complete easily

Though i have nightmares of research design from my undergraduate career, this puts a neat spin on it and reminds the sheer importance of it. Thanks for the reminder of what is important UPENN!

This was a much more academic course than the others in this series. It was challenging and enjoyable. The others have felt more like "self-help," but in this course, I had to stretch myself and learned a lot.

El curso es bueno, tiene buen material, pero a veces se hace un poco pesado porque incluye muchos textos que no son relevantes podrían ponerlos para posterior revision, se hace dificil seguir con el curso.

This was a challenging course- there was not a lot of attendance when I went through so I had to wait and reestablish my deadlines twice to get the opportunity to review my peers and be graded by peers.

i felt empowered when i understood inferential statistics and could read the table filled with numbers. I believe i require one more revision to get more clarity on validity and a methods pros and cons

I took this course to understand how to apply Positive Psychology. This course focuses heavily on creating research, which was not my goal. I did appreciate the module on how to UNDERSTAND research.

Angela Duckworth is an amazing lecturer, will be watching for her in future. It is a good idea to include practitioners experience as well in the videos so will hope to see more of that.

Went in expecting for the course to be heavier on the character/grit material so I was surprised how much more focused it was on research methods, but I am satisfied nonetheless!

Overview of research methods was ease, but clear. Grit research was interesting. But it was a bit messed up because themes of psychology and research methods were mixed.

There were quite a few mistakes (even in titles) in the written content, such as spelling, grammar, etc. which makes learning less enjoyable.

I have learnt a lot everyday attending the courses. However, there are really parts which I find them a bit difficult to understand.

Learned a lot of valuable things on research studies which will help me better analyze. And the grit topic was very interesting.

I love the teaching and learning of the course a great deal. Waiting on the peers to grade and that process was not as fun.

I think the material in this course is hard and not very easy to grasp, but the videos and exercises made it doable.

It's a little more nuts and bolts of research that doesn't really interest me as much as some of the other courses.

Great course! Altough, I think a different level of interaction from both facilitators would be more interesting

A bit on the dry side but learnt a lot of technical skills, especially how to approach a research paper.

I enjoyed the materials shared, I just did not like the quality of the recorded videos

A good course, but it makes heavy weather of understanding research issues.

Much too theoretical, talks by Duckworth were very interesting and funny.

Good basic introduction to research methods form an academic perspective.
