A good place to start learning about the basics of journalism. Very educational. The English segments were too basic, even for non English speakers. Overall great experience.

it's a good course , but it could be offering more, like when we answer a questions wrongly, it could offer corrections and also we need more details with video journalism.

Peer-graded assessments though... It was easier than I though it would be. But I recommend this course as a source of new flow of ideas and information.
