Basic overview of Typographical ideas, terms and so forth. A bit short and not very technical, but playing with Type as an integral part of design was really fun and inspirational.

peer grade review takes a lot of time and even when i have submitted the assignment before time its not being reviewed.

In the first 2 weeks there was no hands-on project, literally nothing exciting just dry material.

Would have welcomed more or longer lectures, and more variety in the assignments.

Great Course For just the introduction

i enjoyed it

too boring

nice

I am following the Specialization in Graphic Design, so I was expecting in-depth theory about typography, but the course barely expands on the theory given in the "Fundamentals of Graphic Design" course, so it is indeed an introduction. Do not expect more.

Overall, the content is good and the instructor provides some examples, which I apreciate, but it feels too rushed. Sometimes they simply mention concepts not going into any depth, nor showing enough practical examples, making it difficult to grasp.

On the other hand, the peer review system is just absolutly terrible and probably the worst part of all these courses. The system just does not work. And it's simply not possible to improve or learn without proper feedback on assignments.

Unfortunately there are just too many students who don't take it seriously and not only don't follow the intructions for the assignments but also don't review correctly. I have seen other people complain about this so I wish CalArts would act on it and did something to improve the peer-review system or provided an alternative grading system altogether.

Not engaging, seemed to drag on forever.

Coursera issue, not the course itself.

Coursera app via appleTV is not compatible despite being available as something to download on that platform. I did work on both appleTV and desktop apps before I realized that the work did not transfer from one format to the other.

Coursera was not helpful in fusing the work so my participation was a bust despite the GREAT quality of the material.

I liked the course and the material, but It was frustrating working with whatever bug plagued the system. Moved and switched due dates, peer reviews not recording. It was a total mess

The participants specifically give zero points, even though they are not designers. Please remove the task marking function by other participants

Nothing in this class in explained, I learned more watching Youtube than this course

how can i learn oline
