Content-wise, this course covers all expected bases on understanding health informatics as an active component of healthcare delivery. In multiple instances, I was happily surprised by the direction the discussion went as I learned not only the topic in the title but the health system improvement initiatives in the United States. The integration of the story of Mr. Santana also gives a relatable face to the struggles an average patient (and their family) encounters as they interact with the system. However, presentation-wise, I feel that there is much room for improvement. Most, if not all, of the time, the experience is basically the speaker reading the usually-wordy/-loaded slides and adding further detailed information (that may be hard to understand especially if one is not well-versed in the US health system). Furthermore, throughout the entire course, the way through which reference/referral to other content in another module/week/section is made does not immediately make sense (“Component X, Unit Y”). At least one of the single-question graded quizzes have answers with the explanation not matching them. I hope that updates to this important course, in terms of content and in presentation (from loaded slides-based to more MOOC-like), be made soon, as the COVID-19 pandemic practically gave the case for health informatics being an essential part of healthcare.

Provided good overview and refresher on HIT in clinical context. Though I'm not a clinician, I found it valuable to understand the constraints and limitations to better understand essential role of coordinated infrastructure to improve workflow, care coordination, care transitions, and value-based person-centred care.

I enjoyed taking this course and learned a lot about expanding information across disciplines to benefit the patients and families we serve in a way that creates more collaboration within a health system and potential for cohesiveness amongst multiple health systems taking care of the same pa

Well done. Excellent quizzes and reading and recordings. There were some sound quality issues. NOt all recordings were of same quality.. SOme , esp in first few videos were hard to hear and had some noi

Good content from a high level. Would like to see more information from the clinicians point of view. For example, what are they doing in the system as a pa

Very comprehensive and informative course, very helpful for those who don't have healthcare background. However, it is very specific to US healthcare system.

Lots of useful information! Voice is a bit monotoned and just reads off the slides - perhaps faculty interaction in the form of videos would have been nice.

Great overview course useful for understanding the complexities of the US healthcare system. It could be improved with live lectures.

This was an excellent course. I could go at my pace. I loved that I was in the comfort of my environment so I could pause a

Very enjoyable and easy to follow course. This course is a nice complement to my daily work. Thank you.

Fantastic basic overview course with important content for those in the healthcare arena!

It was so interesting. The chapters were so clear. The quizzes are not much difficult.

Can't say I agreed with everything that was said, but overall a good class. Thanks!

I really like this course, I plan to work in this area.

Very informative and relat

Great info

This course covers incredibly useful material for today's healthcare system. However, the delivery of the course content is a bit too generalized.

I found the persistent reading of the slides to be a little tedious. A little more interactive activity would have been nice.

I could not feel engaged with the course it was hard for me to complete the course.
