This course was excellent in all aspects, including the interesting and extensive material, as well as Dr. Annemarie Zand Scholten's brilliant lectures that help students digest and enjoy the content.
Excellent course! Well narrated, even entertaining, VERY well structured, with supporting material, and a great mix of theory and examples or discussions. Perhaps the best MOOC I've ever encountered.

•Great use of examples. I was not thrilled with peer-reviews as some people may give you bad scores with no explanation and/or they may be wrong in their understanding/interpretation of the course material/assignment.
par Prashant N
•Very nice and interesting!
I learnt a lot. I wish I could make better use of discussion forums. Some questions and few concepts remained unanswered/ not clear, however it was a fantastic experience overall.

•Nice Course, quite some views to digest but good for understanding how social research can/should be done/considered. Repetition required to grasp all these new terms if you are not a social science stu
par Philly D
•This is a really good course, comprehensive and useful to anyone wanting to know about quant methods. It's pretty tough and you need to study, but if you finish it you'll definitely learn a lot.
par Maher A
•The only issues with this course are that some of the assignments take a lot more time than they estimate, and that some of the multiple choice questions are a bit confusingly structured.

•I enjoyed this course. The lectures were appealing, and the tasks relevant. I enjoyed reviewing other classmates' assignments from around the globe—a very cool idea.
par Carl D
•This is my first MOOC and I enjoyed it. The lectures were clear, concise, and interesting. Most of the tests and assignments were relevant and well thought out.
par Eduardo R P B
•A very good course, just needs more extra info like books and papers to have a more in depth look into quantitative methods. I'd love to read a book on this.
par Sonja M
•Thank you very much. I enjoyed the experience very much. The videos and the material presented are made with a great sense of teaching and made with love:).
par Chia H L
•I have enjoyed the learning very much. The assignments and quizzes are useful. The interviews at the end of each unit helps me see what happens in reality.
par Catherine A
•It was informative and helpful. On some of the subjects, a bit more detail in the examples would help rather than brief general descriptions.
par Natalia P
•It was a challenging course for someone that only knows quantitative research. Definitely took me more time than estimated (or proposed)
par Martha C C O
•Its great. So complete, you really gain an integral knowledge of the topic. I couldn't finish it because of the amount of homework.
par Ferry V
•Very good, easy to follow. Exams are well designed and offer a good training. Videos can sometimes be a bit boring to watch.
par Gijs v S
•Challenging, but very educational! I really feel I learned a lot and already used my new-found knowledge during my studies.
par Tien P
•Good lectures, well-designed videos and tests. However, coordinators are low responsive. No extra reading is provided.
par Liam M
•Good although the peer review system needs work and the quizzes that pop up during videos are annoying and useless
par Rejane R d C P
•Very nice course. I learned a lot. Assessments really make you progress in learning, despite being demanding.
