Good overview of teaching concepts. New educators will take a lot away from this course if taken seriously. Nice review with some occasional insights for more experienced professors.
MR
Nice instruction and instructor but if i do not have any idea about health education, it would have been difficult to me. we need also some more details (larger course).

i have loved this course and have learnt a lot. i have now enrolled in a masters program in my home country and this course has been my main inspiration. keep up the good work
This course has potential, but (ironically) needs better methods in it's presentation. In particular the assessments need a lot of work.
I enjoyed this course a lot even I experience most of the contents on my teaching and clinical practice
Still I learned a lot because the way it has been presented open my mind in different way and I am sure I will think seriously to .implement most what I gained in my practice.
I really enjoyed the course and I think it provides powerful tools to understand teaching and making it more meaningful, how to improve student-teacher relations and how it can impact learning results.
Quiz 03.02 is very vague in what answer is expected. Even after several tried I was unable to complete the quiz. Please look into the issue. Otherwise the course content and delivery is excellent
Great overview of teaching strategies for health professions education. Provides basics and latest innovations in adult education. Lectures and assignments were very manageable.
I think the material presented was relevant and I enjoyed the presentations. I think the testing was hit or miss. A few of the tests were poorly put together. I feel like I was expected to read the mind of the test developer. I also feel the resource material could have been better. For example, I would like access to the power point slides used in the presentations. Otherwise, I really enjoyed this course.
The lecturer was very comprehensive in all the advice and reading materials that went with the course. she also had a cool lecture style for me - I'm a watch and listen person. I liked the immediate multiple choice questions after lectures. Unfortunately I became ill just at the end of the course and didn't finish on time but was given very clear options for follow up courses I could join ad complete. Very nice experience altogether.
I liked the pacing and the type of videos in this course. Everything was laid out well and made sense as a learner. The ILOs were well thought out and addressed in each section. I really liked this professor as well. She was warm and seemed very down to earth and understanding but also realistic. I'd like to teach like her one day.
A very good introduction to the educational theory behind how students are taught and for this novice professor, I found it very interesting. Also, I learned a great deal that I hope to be able to translate into becoming a better teacher. Would recommend this course without reservation especially to those new to medical education.
Absolutely excellent course! It provides learners with an introductory course on both the theoretical background of adult learning theory and practical issues to be implemented in everyday teaching strategies. The references are also great for those who want to further learning in a specific topic.
The course outlines clear and specific learning objectives that align with the needs of health professions educators. This clarity helps participants understand the goals and outcomes expected from the course. Thank you for your dedication to providing an exceptional educational experience
Really good teaching programme.
Massively increased my confidence with teaching, and I will definately change and improve my practice.
Would certainly recommend to anyone who would listen.
Great course, that teaches us the methods and instruments of teaching, and how it is appropriate under what situations. Would love to see more courses from the wonderful instructor.
Excellent course and brilliant lecturer! I really enjoyed this coruse from beginning to end. As a midwifery teacher, the content felt like "tailored" exactly to my needs.
The course was very well organised. The course facilitator was great. The assignments and assessments were very well thought out. Overall it was a great experience.
