I found this course very interesting and interactive. I especially enjoyed the week of extra videos where we went into detailed psychological concepts like dreaming. Thank you for an amazing 12 weeks!

Perfect start. This motivates me to learn more. Prof. Steve is my favorite teacher now. Couldn't have asked for a better person to teach me. Scratched the surface pretty well, now time to dive deeper.

Professor Steve Joorden's was a pleasure to have as our lecturer in this introduction to psychology. The course has introduced me to previously unfamiliar psychological concepts which has broadened my understanding of the mechanics of the human mind, and social psychology especially. Thank you Coursera and Prof. Joordens for this great course.

It was really awesome basic introduction course for psychology. Any one who is not of Psychology background can easily establish his base in this field and proceed. The short lectures divided into weeks were very helpful and less boring . It's for the first time I found psychology really interesting to be seated and learn for literally hours.

Ho apprezzato in maniera particolare questo corso ricco di spunti interessanti. La qualità dell'espozizione degli argomenti è stata eccezionale inoltre il professore Joordens ha mostrato una capacità comunicativa non comune. Infine il materiale messo a disposizione è ricco e consente di approfondire i singoli argomenti in maniera piacevole.

A good course. suitable for starters.
I came from a non-psychology related background and I learnt some basics of psychology, how this area of studies came about and now I can analyse some social events from the psychology point of view. I can safely claimed that I understand humanity now, a little bit better than before I took up the course.

The course gives a good high level view of different aspects of psychology. Professor Steve truly infuses a positive energy into the entire experience. I do not have any formal psychology education. The course help me establish some fundamentals.
I would surely recommend this course to the beginners. Hope to see an advanced level of the same.

lots of useful knowledge given in a fun and casual way. The lecturer Steve is good, funny and cool. And I love his lectures on kids development for parents as I am a parent of a toddler myself, and I agreed totally with what he said. This course helps you to be aware of the psychological aspect in everyday situations which is cool and usual.

Wonderful course, wonderful instructor. All the lectures are interesting, relevant, and explained very well. The outside resources (some i could not access because they had been taken down, or the links provided didn't work) were brilliant and very helpful as well.
Prof. Joordens should now start a more advanced course on psychology as well.

This Introduction to Psychology course was very informative to me. I enjoyed listening to Steve Joorden's weekly lectures. He was great to listen to and I was able to understand the different psychological issues that were described throughout the course, and how they relate to society today. I hope new learners will also enjoy the course.

This was such a comprehensive and compact Cporse encompassing the basics of Psychology. The lecturer, Steve Jorordens did a remarkable job in introducing and touching up on the most important topics and going through them in a very interesting and enjoyable way.

I took the course having so many doubts in my head, as I'm one of the slackers. But where can you find such a cool asf prof who's giving his most in teaching some psychology stuff?! He pulled me in with his teaching style tbh and then I found myself liking and understanding the course materials as well. I had a great time. THANK YOU!

I loved the way sir used to teach... In the beginning I thought psychology is very difficult and thought the journey is gonna be tough... After subsequent lectures I started enjoying learning... All credit goes to sir for coming up with interesting topics and explaining every topic in a crisp and clear manner. Hats off to sir

It was an amazing course, so much interesting to learn even from the smallest of the changes happening around. It was beautiful the way Prof. Steve Joordens taught, his usage of examples made things about psychology so easy to understand and relate to even for someone like me who is typically from engineering background. Cheers.

Loved this course. I felt like I was in class with Dr. Joordens. He is a great lecturer and relates things to real life. I am teaching Psychology at the high school level, and this gave me so many new ideas and a great outline for how and what to teach. I truly enjoyed being in the class. Can't wait to take another one!
