This course was very informative, how the contributions of the past have impacted and shaped today's developments.
I really enjoyed the writing prompts. I probably went overlong on all of them, but it was a good way for me to reflect on my new earning, my previous learning, and where I stand today.
A great opportunity to learn and relearn from this course. Thank University o Michigan for preparing and presenting this course online to students of all disciplines world wide.
Excellent learning opportunity. I got to take this course with financial assistance. Much appreciated.
