Good course for learning about contemporary Israeli society with a variety of lecturers who are leaders on their topics.

Great course for those who, like me, want to know more about the israeli society in a political and sociological view.

Course not updated politically as of year 2022, GCC arab countries signed diplomatic relation contracts with Israel

Me ha gustado. Así he podido comprender mejor la realidad israelí. Gracias

GRACIAS

Ok

I learned a lot, some content seemed biased though, and they presented the Jewish religion in a sense that it was nothing more than traditional and part of their culture, never presenting it as something that is deep and spiritual, something that is their faith in God. It was always viewed as their culture and tradition and so the way they presented it especially made the Ultra-Orthodox Jews seem Old-fashioned, behind the times, and ignorant in terms of the world. That is what I mean by biased.

I really enjoyed most of the video lectures the course provided. However it is quite unfortunate that most of the readings weren't made accessible unless you paid for it (which I refused to do). Also, I didn't find the quizzes challenging nor thought-provoking. Those 2 are the only reasons why I gave this course 3/5.

Many familiar faces that played a vital role from the founding of Israel before it was state was grossly missing.

Some lectures were extremely good while others were poor in content.

The course was interesting, but I would have appreciated more academically rigorous assessments. As the course is currently designed, you either get 100% or 0%!
