The course was pretty interesting. I enjoyed learning it.

It has very hard but very interesting for my career

It was really amazing lecture with detailed demo.

perfect course . very instructive and well detail

Thank you so much

This course was really helpful

It is one of the best MOOC courses I have Taken.

The final task requires too much work.

I really like it. Easy and practical.

good but question are too trickly

excelente curso, me gusto mucho

The course was interesting!

Very simple and informative

Great course, thanks

exceente curso!!!

very practical!

Great

I found this to be a very well-structured course which gave me a good overview of a wide variety of tools used in the field. Among other things, I learned how to look for resistance genes and plasmids, and how to determine the species and sequence type of a sample. A sincere thank you goes to all those involved in putting this together.

Each weekly set of lectures is followed by a quiz, but perhaps a few more exercises would have been helpful... something on the lines of the final assignment (an exercise to learn how to interpret phylogenetic trees, for instance). What I think would also have helped is a brief description given by the lecturers of the biological features they were going to talk about - for example, what is the biological meaning of 'sequence type' of a strain? I think this would have made things clearer for beginners.

Interesting topic! And well presented material! It is very convenient and helpful to be introduced into several bioinformatic tools, as they may seem intimidating in the beginning. Also, I liked the final assignment.

I would suggest to add more assignments during this 5 week course as it is hand-on work and thus it motivates students to learn more and get familiar with the tools. It would also be useful to put more emphasis into the applications f these tools and how widely they are used. It would also be useful to do some troubleshooting during the course, like how we should interpret the results when they are not so clear or what we could further do to acquire a more clear picture.

Thank you very much for everything! It has been an enjoyable 5-week course.

It was a good learning experience, you won't learn WGS but you will learn how to analyse WGS nicely except at end of the course i was not that much happy with phylogenetic trees and analysis part, felt like they could have tought lil more nicely because of that it was lil difficult to pass the last test, also i think whether there is some problem with there batch upload tool or now it is not available for public use or something, so at the end of the course the task you have to complete kinda need that batch upload,so i had to analyse each sample one by one (good practice though) apart from that the way they have designed the test is good you will use tool practically and learn, and it was good 👍

There is very little background information given to what is being done, how it is being done or why it is being done. Obviously an online course like this can only go into so much detail but there was almost no explanation of the background. It is also not just using the medical field as its context but what is taught has almost no relevance outside medicine as the course is better understood as a tutorial on how to use their own web tools. While those tools serve their purpose, unless you want to use their tools, you will gain very little over the course.

This is a set of manuals. No theory - just a description of several tools with some very basic explanation of the principles underlying these tools.

Before applying for this course, I can suggest visiting the site with all the tools described in these courses and reviewing it - it may be easier for someone (and definitely faster) to read the instructions on the site https://cge.cbs. dtu.dk/services/

However, the tools themselves are quite useful.

The lectures are okay and very comprehensive, but the examination process is annoying as none of them had real feedback (for example, if three choices were correct but you selected only two of them, you don't get intermediate grades). Anyway, the tools are useful.

Was slightly disappointed about how the class is very on the surface. It covers some cool tools but does not go into the details of genome sequencing, which I was expecting to see more of. Some lectures are highly repetitive as well.
