This course tells us about how social customs and traditions have contributed to the evolution of sports and how sports has vice versa reflected the changes in social order of any age.

It´s a very good course

The pace is quite slow and the content maybe it is not for young boy

This was a really interesting course, gives lot of insight into the various types of sports in the world, explains the science and detailed theory behind some of the worlds most popular sports, not to mention a lot of trivia and history behind the sports and how it relates to society and the various cultural relations it has all across the world.

A wonderful course and a very fun ;earning experience.

Special thanks to Professor Orin Starn and everyone at Duke University for bringing this course and making it possible. Cheers

Really great course that explores the various ways sports have an impact and are reflections of human society and various cultures. Really interesting!

It has a great variety of topics and most of the videos are very dynamic.

Awesome lecturer, reveals topics comprehensively. Lectures are well-structured. The course makes me learn more about sports.

thank you .

Professor Starn gives insight into the sports world and explains complex topics using anthropological reasoning in a way that makes sense to the average person. Great class!

Very insightful, and well communicated by the teacher. Very enjoyable!

Nice and refreshing course. I liked best the video game lecture and the book recommended.

This online course is very interesting for people that enjoys playing and watching sports. To explain the impact of sports in society and the development of sports in general, ideas and studies of many social science experts are provided and translated to the sport reality. Many well-known sport facts and personalities are provided to support the arguments.

The lecturer (Orin Stark) presents the subjects and his personal opinion on an “easy-going” language. He is someone with who you could have a very pleasant pub conversation. His approach and “easy going” language make the course and its content interesting and easy to follow, also for people without any background in social sciences, like me.

I really enjoying this course!

It is an excellent Course!!Great insight into one of the important aspects of sports

perfect

Excellent course, well prepared and presented!

amazing!

This was a great course! I went in not knowing much at all about sports, and I think I learned a lot. Everything was easy to understand, and the lectures were easy to follow. Some of the readings were challenging, but in a "hey, I learned a lot and this made me think" way rather than a "this is too hard, I give up" way.

Very Interesting.

This class is so fun and touches on so many topics (and sports)!

The course covers every aspect on which the modern sports foundation have been laid. Many thanks to Mr. Orin for sharing his knowledge to us.

I really enjoyed the course! I feel it touches all of the subjects around sports and helps you understand the evolution and impact they have in society.
