This is the third course I made on this journey to becoming a journalist at the Michigan State University and I'm very satisfied! Professors are prepared explaining clearly every aspects for being a serious and honest journalist. I recomend it to everyone who want to be a journalist, but also for people whoi want to know who means to be a journalist. Thank you to all Professors. I'm waiting for the next step!

It was very broad and more broad than what i learnt in my University. The lecturers are very well skilled and professionals in their field

Thank you for sharing the Course. I learn a lot and enjoy a lot too.

Excellent course for aspiring journalists.

A well-structured course, the short video sessions helped in understanding the world of journalism in a brief and concise fashion.

The quality control of the course is not very good. Some videos repeat the same take twice. Some questions are misplaced. Some of the peer review prompts are placed as questions for the student, which causes confusion.

The lecturers are very little personal. i.e I dont connect with them so I dont get too inspired and loose motivation with this particular course (not the subject).

I feel a bit like in a sausage machine, yet there are not enough students on the course to review my assignments, or for me to review assignments. I keep on having to go back to, a for me completed course, to see if there is anyone I can review to get my certificate.

This goes for all of the courses in the series, regretfully.

It just keeps getting better.

Each course is a healthy and robust expansion upon the last. My knowledge base continues to expand: My writing in general has become honed, my videos and pictures have enhanced. I am getting more compliments on my presentations.

This course builds nicely upon the last 2 with a focus on how to successfully carry your news and reports to your readership.

As always, instructors are varied in personality, their individual rhythm and cadence is appealing. I feel a deep sense of engagement with the material. The slides behind the instructors are thoughtful and well-placed; bulleting key topics. I felt I was honestly both learning and understanding the material.

I experienced both personal and professional accomplishment in this course. I am signing up right now for the next one.

A highly informative, applicable& easy to follow course by absolutely knowledgeable professors. The thorough, well-organized& engaging course content reflects the the professionalism & the extensive knowledge of the professors in this field. Really looking forward to enrolling in other courses by the same professors & Michigan State University . Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to learn from you.

It was very interesting to go through all the chapters of the course"Effectively delivering the news to your audience " and especially how to know how to deal with audience's reactions.

.Instructors are professional and the lessons are well organized.Thanks you Michigan State Journalism Coursera Team

This component of the specialization is indispenable for gaining the core skills and values of a practicing journalist. Earning trust and confronting sources, international journalism and its risks.. stay up-to-date with the fast-changing field of journalism on multi-media.

I highly recommend this component of the specialization.

The amount of Professors and Students (as well as the caliber) invloved makes this course more than worthwhile! I really am learning about Journalism and how to be a reporter! Thank you to Michagan State, the Students and Coursera... I hope everyone is getting as much out of it as I am! - Evan McNeeley

I truly learned a lot from these journalism courses, I am in process of applying to a University here to persue a Masters degree in Journalism. These courses prepared me with a good background and motivation to understand this profession and related academic challenges.

Special shout-out to Ms Grestner for delivering her contents with strong conviction, which was especially apparent in Week 5 on the challenges of a journalist. Hearing her personal sharing definitely cemented the why and how to retain our sanity as journalist.

I love this specialization. The video classes are pact with valuable information explained with concreate examples. The peer review assignment are very helpful in reflecting and understanding the concepts explained during the videos.

Fantastic Class! I have a BA in Journalism and I felt the Coursera/MSU SoJ Classes were indeed tougher and give a much better example of 'real world' than you will find in most class rooms.

I really enjoyed the course. The tutors are amazing. Everything is explained in a very easy ways and different aspects of journalism are covered.Thank you for the opportunity.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to take the course and learn what goes into effectively delivering the news, it' s a whole world of skills I never knew existed.

I learned so much about the pros and cons of being a journalist and making a news story really make an impact on the audience I am aiming at.

It was a course I enjoyed immensely and the exams are also very instructive. There is great information for journalism. Thanks!
