Basically a review of common sense of virtual education. If you're a fast reader (since this course is entirely pages of text, with the exception of the introduction video where you 'meet' the instructor you never hear from again), you can get through the whole thing in a week. Mostly beneficial as a way to identify resources for you to get information on topics/tools of interest on your own.

Although the basic information provided by this course was good, overall the course was very poor. Firstly, it was just a series of readings: the course failed to practice what it preached and provided near no actual lectures or presentations. Secondly, although the course is marketed internationally most of the information provided was specific to the US.

This course has a poor method to teach, the instructor (People that speak) sometimes is difficult to understand her and talk very fast and in many cases I don't know of what is she talking. I'm really disappointed

The instructor keeps stumbling over the reading, and many of the words are misspelled!

A bad example of online instruction

It is a well demanding course. If you need to learn the basics of virtual/online/remote teaching is the perfect course for you. No requirements are necessary but a lot of interest in knowledge and wish to improve relationship with students in virtual orientation teaching!

Excellent course! Very relevant as it really does provide interesting, informative facts on how to address issues that may be encountered when dealing with everything that pertains to virtual instruction! Love the gamut of information that it provided.

Un curso dinámico y muy completo para poder comprender todo el proceso de eduación virtual, desde sus antecedentes a la actualidad. Ha sido interesante y enriquecedor poder conocer las distintas experiencias de otros docentes también.

A wonderfully designed course for teachers and aspiring teachers who would like to enhance their skills in virtual Education. Thanks to Ms Cindy and University of California, Irvine for launching this course on Coursera

Muy bueno y recomendable para todos aquellso que están en el mundo de la educación online. Despeja muchas dudas y sobre todo pone en manifiesto diversas herramientas para la enseñanza-aprendizaje del alumno.

It was a very interesting course, specially for me, that I'm becoming a new virtual teacher. The only thing that I may change is a more interactive way of teaching, not only with readings.

This introductory course does a nice job of going over the history of online learning/education along with explanations of the laws of education and how they relate to online learning.
