I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I learned so much about cathedrals and their history. The professor was engaging, the forums were lively, and the imagery and music was beautiful and inspirational.

Really enjoyed it. The information and way it was presented was very interesting. I would even do it again as it had a lot of information in it...cant wait to visit the cathedrals we studied about.

I have participated in another course at Yale, and there were not the many faults as in this course (wrong answers in quizzes). I find that questions in the essays were very different from the titles, and I find the questions in the four essays were very alike. I would have liked to write about "Biblia Pauperum"! Too many videos were more guide material than university level. Anyway it was interesting and I will look at the cathedrals in another way. Thank you.

I expected more focus on architecture and social aspects while the course is primarily focused on the religious aspects and mythology. Too much of a course is the lecturer reading out loud the passages from religious and other contemporary texts. A student who is focused on Christianity may find this course a lot more fulfilling than a secular or otherwise non-Christian student who is generally interested in the Middle Ages or generally in architecture.

Mostly interesting overview of the building and architecture of a few of the great cathedrals, with a lot of sidebars about the lives of the kings and saints.

Too much time spent reading medieval texts ... Yes, they gave context; but, I would rather have spent the time learning about additional cathedrals.

interesting class, but not very varied, and a bit too long ...

I started out optimistically, but in the end I was disappointed by this course:
No list for further reading
No interesting discussions on the forums
Very long texts to read that did not really contribute to my understanding of the course
No active mentoring
Many frustrated people because there were not enough essays to review

There are written
requirements
that are not mentioned
in the course
advertisement. Don’t
do this course if you are just wanting to learn from the
videos for fun.

So far, the lectures are monotonous and mostly consist of the reading aloud of quotes, making them pretty hard to get through. Might depend on which angle you're interested in, but for those interested in art history, this course lacks high-quality visuals and interpretation and focuses on contextual details that don't always seem relevant or engaging. You're better off reading a good textbook.
