Exellent course. I rearned a lot about infographics and now I'm doing my own infographics. Thanks

Creo que podrían incluir mas ejemplos de infografias.

La verdad me gusto mucho!!

Gran curso!

Could have been better if more lectures were uploaded. Especially the last week.

Very nicely explained with relevant examples and easy to understand language.

I think better if Karl or other instructors also review our project

Good course. To little support in relation to using the software.

Great Course. however, the content should be more rich

very practical and vocational course. I reccomend it!

The contents are very good although it feels like it's been there for a while without any kind of maintenance. Some links are broken, some information is not updated (specifically talking about Illustrator's free trial period being now shorter, which put some students in a difficult position).

Overall, I felt there were not enough students for a peer-reviewed system as for some assignments it took long to get a grade because there wasn't enough peers to grade it (and reading the forum this seems like a fairly common issue). Moreover, when I had only one project left to review before I could complete the course, there was some sort of error in which it kept saying "Review one more..." but the page was blank with no projects loading. I kept refreshing, logging out and back in, but the problem persisted. I refuse to think there were simply no projects waiting for a grade because there's always so many people asking for a review in the forums. This led me to missing the deadline and having to reset the deadline and wait longer to complete it.

I'd recommend it for the contents particularly for someone with a very basic knowledge of Illustrator although for someone who's been in the graphic design field for a while it might seem too basic.

The instructional video and course material by Karl Gude are amazing however the course is completely self taught with zero interaction with the instructor and only peer graded work. Since I have no previous experience in this topic - and the course is aimed at students like me who have no previous knowledge of infogfraphics - having my work peer graded by someone with equally little knowledge or experience is useless. I would at least expect instructor comments and grading on assignment projects, if not being able to communicate with the instructor. Particularly if you pay for the course. I would give the instructor 5 stars but reduce this to 3 stars because you can actually access all that content on youtube and I have received no professional feedback on my work.

I found the course interesting and inspiring in part. I would have liked more instruction on what makes a good infographic - like the most important aspects. I also found there was a disconnect between what was required for each assignment and then the way it was marked. I also did not want to spend a lot more money getting Adobe products and do not think there should be so much emphasis on this. There are many other graphics programs out there and it is perfectly possible to make a great infographic without using Adobe illustrator. There are even free programs out there like the Gimp. I think on the whole the course is a little overpriced for what it gave me.

It is nice. There is a feeling that it is completely automated. The everything is peer reviewed, and you don't seem to get any input from the professor or the mentors. I have also read on the message board, a year go someone with the exact same complaint I had. The first project should say you need a chart and a map for your infographic. I had a really good idea for my first project, and then I realized my idea did not fit the parameters of the second assignment. But it was still a fun topic, and not passing a few times did make me improve my work. So i am glad I too it.

You have to use adobe illustrator to make the infographic and I didn't think the course did a good enough job giving the basics for that. I had to do a lot of googling to figure out how to do stuff on my own. All of the assessments are done by the people in the course and I thought people were a little too harsh. If someone is completely new to AI then it is a bit much to expect the infographic to be magazine quality.

This course is excellent and the instractor is amazing The disadvantage is every week there is a peer review assignment and it is required to be done to finish the course.. I would prefer if the peer review will be made at the end of the course and the other assignments must be replaced by quizzes. I had to wait every week to get my assignment reviewed by four peers and it takes a lot of time to be done.
