Good, informative course. However, it is more designed around analytical thinking and applied to business scenarios rather than what the title implies. I would prefer to see a few administrative adjustments with the course: some type-o's existed in the lecture context; hyperlinks to a few of the readings required subscriptions (NY Times and Stratfor online) and couldn't be directly accessed; upon completion and when accessing the certificate there is an option to upload to various online platforms, Facebook, Linked-In etc...however, when the user attempts to upload the certificate directly to Linked-In it doesn't populate in the users "Licenses and Certifications" profile section. The only option was to make a comment about Coursera. Other online academic instruction platforms have direct links to add the cert in the appropriate Linked-In profile section with all data auto-populated. I would like to see Coursera adapt this technique.

T​he course is great overall: the Professor is engaging and brilliant, the contents well presented and relevant, the modules logically connected and flowing. The quizzes at the right level of difficulties. A bit disappointed about the readings: most of the papers are available only under subscription at first, and a few needed a lot of google search to get them. Many are suggested books. A more comprehensive, easily available and detailed bibliography would have been of the highest importance.

A good course that is easy to follow, if you are interested in intelligence analysis and actor modeling.

My main problem is that the course title is somewhat misleading. While Week 1 addresses AI as it relates to human capabilities, the core course material is classical intelligence analysis, which has no significant tie to the "digital age". The same tools can be (and probably were) used before computers became ubiquitous.

A good backgrounder for the concepts. It's particularly good at explaining the use of strategic empathy and "placing" people and organizations which is so important. It's a little annoying that some of the readings are either not to be found at the links or require a subscription to read. You can pass the exams without them, but it makes the course feel less complete if you can't read them.

V​ery intriguing and interesting. Great lecture style and relatable mannger of getting the concepts across. I can't give it 5 stars though, becuase of some issues with accessing mandatory readings, and the fact I would liked more consistent application to real world business or personal scenrarios in addition to the current scenarios shown. Great frameworks and strategies introduced.

O conteúdo foi interessante, contudo havia materiais publicados a muito tempo, podendo estar desatualizados. Também algumas sugestões de leitura não estavam disponíveis com acesso gratuito.

The course is interesting, but some reading recommendations are published long time ago ( possible out of date) and i couldn't access some articles because needed payment.

Just started this course and thought it will be about more of AI and ML but to my surprise , it was a foundation course to have these skills and their application in real world.

There are plenty of reading material suggestions in these course. Good for readers....

A very interesting course that allows you to understand the basic concepts and frameworks of Intelligence Tools. I would recommend to use another type of examples and not only focus on USA Army examples.

Here are few suggestions about the script of the course :

1) In few videos Centaur is written as Center.

2) one video topic - Start with an 0utside view then work inside. Here outside is misspelled.

I like it, I like the professor and the content but pay attention to the links you provide because some of that was inaccessible. Thank you, the course was very useful to me!

Very good course, I found it quite interesting, only half of it I felt a bit confused since it is theoretical, all the rest is quite interesting data.

Please make course little bit easy. Sometimes it becomes difficult to understand. But it is the very wonderful course

The course was very interesting and woke me up to learn more about strategic empathy and artificial intelligence.

I really enjoyed the course. Exams were really hard, so you really had to be focused and understand the course.

The content was good, nonetheless, some of the readings were behind pay walls that I could not afford.

Great introduction to the subject. Some external links need updating or are now behind paywalls.

understand the rules of artificial intelligence tools, using symbiosis and intelligence cycles.

It's a great introduction of tools that we will need for a complex world.

Useful tools for conducting analysis from a systematic perspective.

I think it helps to open your mind about certain way of thinking

Very good basic learning on Intelligence Tools in AI world.

I highly recommend this course.

You acquire great tools

Insightful & un-complicated take on the subject.

El curso es digerible y muy perspicaz.

helpful in learning
