Very interesting introduction to the fundamentals of hotel distribution. The material is not outdated (2015) but should included more recent documentation, as we are in 2020 now... Also, many links are not available.

Learning from basic. The material is enough for fundamental level.

The exam question was a bit difficult because there was no similar examples in the course.

Review assignments by colleagues I believe is not the best way to learn and avaluate, teachers must do that, our grades must be given by teachers.

The course content is great, and the teacher is fantastic.

It needs some updating though. 7 years is a lot. The industry has changed a bit since.

I personally feel that the works reviews and explanations are not a good methodology for learning on platforms, is better by exercises and exams.

The course was very good. The only negative is that it isn't updated, the materials are all old and things in the industry are rapidly changing.

Well explained, concise and quick.

I would have expected more of the complementary readings. 2015 articles are not relevant any more

Overall it's not bad, however, the video quality is poor. Peer grading assignments sometimes take a while to finalize grades.
