Awesome! Now, this IS a great course on Theories of Second Language Acquisition! Definitely totally recommended; especially to those who are not familiar with or very keen on theories and histories!

Great presentations on what language instruction approaches have looked like in the past and present. Each approach is discussed and evaluated so the "best of's" can be applied in your own teaching.

Very informative course. It helped me to get a systematic view on SLE theories. Yet I wish the course was a bit longer and less dense, for the lack of a better word. Too much information was squeezed into very short modules.

Lot's of interesting background to language teaching and learning. The material is presented clearly although the instructor may not be to all students' taste. Keep going, however, as the later courses are even better!

While there was a lot of good content, sometimes the dramatizations were long on performance and short on good information. As an avid debater the Devil and Angel "arguments" were cringe worthy most of the time.

Great content, reviews, and quizes. Dr. Dixon was ridiculous in the videos, which helped me retain the information, for which I'm not angry, but it made me cringe! Ha! I need to meet him in real life.

There's some unconfortable sexism in some of the lessons. They are dramatizations but still it's not welcoming or funny for female students and would not be considered ok if it was "jokes" about race.

Excellent structure of contents and video outlines, failed to give the fifth star as I see that there are still space for further interactions between students and instructors. Still, great job!

So informative and fun. The content is well-crafted, the flow is intuitive and clear. I just hope the peer grading would allow more point values so learner can evaluate others better.

The course is well prepared, however, you could include more material to read and more examples about the activities some teachers have already done applying the techniques learned.

Seemed like a lot of info that is not really necessary. Did like how it was done, though.
Both this course and the previous, after passing the final test, doesn't allow me to go on.

I enjoyed all parts of this course except the angel/devil video clips. I did not find them helpful and at times felt they actually were a distraction to mastering the material.

I was never a good learner of theories...they presented these lessons well. They use many American idioms. If you can get past that, the course is a good learning experience.

I liked this course and learning about the history of all the different approaches. On a side-note, there are some typos in the quizzes as well as in the English subtitles.

I appreciated the animated approach to lecturing (theory sounds boring... I know), but it could be presented in a slightly different way; interview, panel discussion etc.

Not happy...the peer review assignments people choose to comment but not grade, honestly I think the tests are enough to show understanding of concepts and approaches.

I really enjoyed the creative way the theories were presented. Some of the presentations seemed a bit repetitive unnecessarily, like in the Angel and Devil debates.

Good stuff so far: hoping to get more in-depth about specific types of classroom situations (all that pesky cognitive stuff) beyond just the history of approaches

I love the course because it is very detailed and informative. I also enjoyed watching teacher Shane Dixon's acting and teacher Jessica Cinco's teaching.

It was well put together and enjoyable to take. The 8 theories covered are thoroughly explained. The chart infidelity helped for the 25 question exam.

I appreciate the video vignettes and e-enactments as part of the instruction. Many are tongue-in-cheek (on purpose) and enliven the learning process.

Nice course. I only wish you focused on the target audience a bit more, and did not asume we all need to be "amused" with weird antics.
Thanks.

Like the first course in this series, this is very easy to understand and the instructor delivers the lesson as if he is in a classroom.

Some of test questions are vague and create a kind of misunderstanding. I hope this will be considered as a frienly advice, not a claim.

It was quite refreshing to have an insight about the history of language learning and the different approaches employed. Good course!

The course was well done overall, but I was surprised by the number of English grammatical errors in a class about teaching English.
