Human Resources Intern
I like how the quiz results elaborate greatly on the nuances and anything noteworthy that contributes to understanding the logic behind the answer, not just knowing the answer.
Win K.
Lecturer and Consultant Physician
The audio-visual presentation is most suited for me because it allowed me to focus more on the module content, and the questions posed during the presentation refreshed and reflected what I had learned before the module ended.
Monica L.

Courses are great and very informative.
Hailey G.
Research Assistant - Undergraduate Student
The course was very informative and provided a great elaboration on the concepts discussed. I found it important to incorporate the historical aspect of the research field and how it has evolved over time. The case studies allowed for a constructive self-evaluation of the material within each module. The videos were also a productive form of reinforcing the concepts discussed.
