TOP REVIEWS FROM RESILIENCE IN CHILDREN EXPOSED TO TRAUMA, DISASTER AND WAR: GLOBAL PERSPECTIVES
Thank you so much for this course which should be taught to all teachers from kindergarten to adult. I learned a lot and I am very passionate about this subject! Thank you very much, Mrs. Masten!
Great course, so much learning! Specially listening and reading from actual people who were expose to trauma, disasters and wars and became overcomers and resilient.
Excellent. Great learning opportunity. Professor Ann Masten explain all subjects very well and the course is very well orgnized. Thank you!
I felt that at many points, the course focused on bluntly conveying facts more than making the videos engaging. There should be more interesting interactions.
