It is the easiest to understand course. I have came across many classes, yet this one is straight to the point, informative with the material it offers, and very motivating.
NL
Interesting topics that are helpful for new teachers. The projects help by making you think about the material in relation to your classroom. I found the peer-reviewing process hit-and-miss.

It is such an enlightening experience, the journey is interesting and the details are enthusiastic. I enjoyed and learnt new things in this course.

Thanks a lot Coursera! Appreciation Commonwealth Education Trust. Thank you dear Professor John MacBeath and everybody contributing to the development and running this wonderful experience for us.

very good course. it focuses more around reflecting on your ideas about education, as opposed to teaching you concrete teaching techniques

A thought provoking course that provides teachers many tools that can be used to create thinkers and learners and much more.

This course was very boring and very frustrating. Long long slow lectures with lots, and lots, and lots of questions, and no answers. The briefest of comments on potentially interesting people or topics, but no links to enable those to be followed up. Quizzes on concepts not covered in the material. Conflicting descriptions of assessment requirements. Discussion moderators who continually referred you back to the course material which did not contain the information that people were looking for. Before taking this course I could find only one negative review, which I dismissed as probably being a minority. Having taken the course, I agree with that review wholeheartedly. I did learn a couple of things, despite everything, but I would not recommend this course. Please upgrade it substantially.

I enjoyed learning this course, including Professor Macbeth's philosophical lectures and the teaching stories from every corner of the world. There are certainly new knowledge and theories you could learn from the course, but what's more important is to reflect on your own, to dive into what you already have known. Good luck!!
A very well detailed course. I am overwhelmed by the level of teaching and will strive to complete all of the courses offered by the Commonwealth Education Trust. A five stars it is, well-done!
Such an insightful course on learning should deserve a high recognition for its outstanding resources.
It has been a rewarding experience to have learnt the important concepts of teaching and learning in a very simple way. it could not have been any better. One concept that stood out now that i will try to implore in my teaching is the connect, extend, challenge. Good job Prof. MacBeath. I Highly recomend esp. to new teachers or people with no background in teaching.
This course is really amazing. it gives you confidently how to get at the process of learning and teaching in the classroom. Each student is unique and the most important purpose is to encourage the student to find out his ability with joyful teaching ways.

It was very inspiring. I have learned more things about me than never, so now that I’m aware of my deficiencies, I’ll work to improve them and be the best of myself.
It was great learning experience, specially for an educator, who is from corporate background and didn't have the formal teaching experience.
This certification is the starting point of understanding in-depth, the foundations of teaching and learning and it has been a great start
I've enjoyed and learnt all the related techniques to improve my professional capabilities as a teacher. Thanks alot
Very good and I would say "Inspiring" course despite the quality of the video.
This course challenges you and you will become a better teacher.
