Great course
Although some matters are presented quite broadly and generically, some others are exhaustive and of practical usage, especially the ones supported by documents and references: very useful!
I found the lessons on cultural aspects were very interesting and well instructed.

It was an amazing experience to me for the very first time I studied online.
I learned a lot. I enjoyed learning with COURSERA.
