I loved every aspect of his course. I am someone who has a very substantial foundation of knowledge towards the Queer community, but this course taught me a lot more than I haven't thought about yet.

This course taught me the new variations about LGBTQ and its diffenert arenas. It taught us how biological, sociological and psychological concept plays important role in determind the definitions.

I loved this course, the instructors were great and the topics covered were interesting and appropriate. However, I struggled with required and optional reading in every week. I found broken links, material that was geo-blocked (I am in Canada) and articles behind paywalls. Also, some of the pop-up quizzes embedded in the videos were asynchronous, and popped up BEFORE the topics had been discussed by the instructors. I found these aspects to be very frustrating, as I wanted to be able to take advantage of all the resources. Finally, several of the questions were not identified as "choose all that apply", and as a result, I was given a "0" for only having chosen one option, which brought down my scores overall. So all told, good instructors and content, but poor platform user experience.

Overall, the course was extremely informative and covered a wide variety of subtopics that supported learning the main topic. There were a few of the check-on-learnings (built into the videos) that need to be fixed. (I.e. After selecting an answer it would say "Incorrect," followed by a message that said the selection was correct or it would say "Correct," followed by a message that said to review the material. The required reading had videos that were already covered during the lesson, but the videos were informative and provided a new perspective on the topic. I would say to keep the content, but fix the check-on-learnings and it is easily a 5-star course.

This is a very good course that covers a good range of topics. The instructors are very engaging and provide with very concise and clear explanations. Sometimes I wish they were digging a bit deeper in their analysis of particular issues. Also, there are some problems with the test's detection of correct answers that could be fixed. In addition, the complete lack of academic references makes the course not as powerful and rigorous as it could be. Overall, this is an inspiring and intellectually challenging course that I would highly recommend to anyone, in particular to someone with little prior knowledge of LGBTQ+ issues and social sciences.

There is a lot of good info here with most relating to understanding basic concepts of LGBTQ+ terminology and perspective. As a gay woman, I learned some new things and gained perspective on topics that I personally do not encounter and appreciate the professors for providing that for me. I enjoyed the additional resources that were suggested (and required) that allowed me to look deeper into the portions of the course that either most interested me or I needed extra time researching. I did not find the professors engaging in their presentation and would have appreciated seeing their inputs in the discussion forums.

I enjoyed the course very much. I would like to see an academically rigorous course covering the development and history of the LGBT+ person and community. I enjoyed the lectures and the resources provided. Some of the video presentations,however, were just too long. ( the 12 minute drag interview and the never ending 19 minute parenting video )

The perspective was very useful and I will apply it to my own life. I am a gay 58 year old, white man who lives in Switzerland. I recognise I have many advantages but also lost lots of friends to AIDS.

This course really gives me guidlines and wider views into LGBTQ+ communities, both theoratical and practical, and issues they're facing. It also encorage me to do more research and start having conversations about LGBTQ+ to people surrounded me. However, the (little) disadvantage to this course is that learners who have little to no experience in sociological terms might find it hard at first. Also, the difference of each person's society (especially international students), might make this course not suit for some.

The content was great! I really enjoyed the videos and readings provided. It helped me learn more about LGBTQIA+ issues. I only gave four/five stars because some of the links were broken and some of the quiz questions were messed up (e.g., it would say I chose the incorrect option, so I would go back and fix it, then it would say the answer was correct, but the comment would say "incorrect."). Other than that, it was a great course. I would highly recommend.

First weeks are mostly elementary (yet necessary) knowledge that more experienced people might find a bit basic, while the second part of the course gets more interesting and delves more into specific issues and themes. If you're a beginner, or if you wish to consolidate what you already know and acquire some new knowledge in the meantime, this course is for you.

Ocasional technical errors, but fantastic course content The resources provided in this course, are very educational, and not difficult to understand. The two teachers are also amazing, and even bring in a guest teacher, as well as interviewees. The test at the end of each week (excluding week 1) are amazing, however you must pay for the tests/certificate.
