Good to understand the basics of Storytelling.

It would be better if there was more tests.

The course itself was fairly interesting however there was a lot of redundancy in the material presented. I especially disliked the peer review for a final grade. There were many skill sets involved with the folks that took this course and not all of the folks have equal skills in terms of analysis of material they were reviewing. By this I mean if your final submission was reviewed by someone with lesser skills and or understanding of material in general you end up with a lower grade.

I'd probably actually give this 3.5/5 stars. It was a good course, but I was hoping for a little more advanced storytelling/experiential learning. I think this course is perfect for people who don't have a graduate degree but if you have a graduate degree in a business related field it's likely you've covered most of this. I did appreciate the framework for storytelling though and thought it was helpful.

The course is easy to follow and well-taught. The prospective student should be aware that the course is an overview of each of the topics (mainly personal brand, segmenting audience, communicating innovation, crisis response), rather than covering the topics in-depth. Personally, I found interesting the concepts of personal brand, and the crisis response.

There are a large number o peer-review submissions that are simply cut and pasted from either the class or unrelated articles. Also, many assignments I reviewed are from the years 2020 and 2021. Are these students even active? It makes me wonder if my submission will get a timely review so that I may receive credit for having completed this course.

Thank you for providing practical methodologies for building the stories. The Crisis Response approach was very useful.

I would prefer to have assignments each week than to combine them all into the the final week. This allows to integrate the learnings and also preparing and marking the assignments doesn't take as long.

Inspiring course with a lot of reasons about why storystelling is so important. But I feel I haven't learned enough about the techniques and tools of storytelling, also more examples or best cases would have been beneficial to get a better understanding about how one could apply storytelling.

The teachings could have been better cemented through more frequent knowledge checks and activities - the theory all blended into one, and I found it more focused on "pitching the benefit of storytelling" than "teaching us how to craft and deliver better stories".

The final assignment could use a little bit of work, from a clarity standpoint. I actually think that the exercise is quite rewarding, but the expectations of, and directions for participants aren't entirely clear (and that's coming from a native English speaker).

I was looking forward to this course as I thought it would be extremely relevant. It would benefit of little quizzes after each module and more focus on the actual storytelling in presentations, not necessarily linked to leadership.
