The course content is good and informative, unfortunately the lecturers are only reading the script while being filmed, it's not very engaging. On top of that are a couple of blurpers where they actually skip the word "not" in the video, so for people listening but not reading along on the slides, they'd actually understand the opposite of what is ultimately true. After week 2 I skipped the videos altogether and simply studied from the downloadable script, which works better and faster. I was able to complete the course within 4 weeks (as opposed to the scheduled 8) that way.

Los videos son innecesarios si se menciona lo mismo que en las diapositivas. El uso de imágenes haría más ameno y entendible los contenidos del curso, especialmente en las representaciones de los ciclos de vida de los distintos parásitos, las imágenes que si estaban no eran muy legibles ni entendibles. Las entrevistas con los doctores y el acercamiento a los medios de proliferación de los distintos organismos fueron interesantes.

Decent review however would have appreciated more in depth lectures. Questions for assessment were lacking considerably and quite dated with terminology.

Less about the parasites and more about case studies in human and treatment, found a few errors in the quiz answers

Poor course due to very few pics and videos, which are absolutely necessary. Also Dr s Nyindo voice was ear piercing and with differend articulation of english.
