An extremely well developed course about not such a simple topic ir research methods. The instructors broke the topics down into easy to learn bytes such that an interested learner can complete easily

Though i have nightmares of research design from my undergraduate career, this puts a neat spin on it and reminds the sheer importance of it. Thanks for the reminder of what is important UPENN!

A bit on the dry side but learnt a lot of technical skills, especially how to approach a research paper.

Like some other students, I felt this course was heavily focused on research methods. I wanted to learn more about character and grit and how to help nurture them. As well, the previous two courses made me think this would be follow suit, but the focus on research methods felt like it went in a different direction. I appreciate that knowledge and am glad to have the awareness, but it felt a little artificial to come up with examples of how I'd employ research methods w a hypothesis of my own since I'm not a researcher nor do I want to be, and I'm not an undergrad or grad student any longer.
As well, the really short videos of Angela lecturing were too short to have a lot of impact. I think the longer ones with clearer focus are better. I'm getting a great background about grit and its associated research from reading her book and I'm thankful for that. And, I am enjoying this series of classes in general.

The course is good but the technical lose ends are not good. The peer review for module 2 and 3 were completed but the course still shows as incomeplete, while there is a green tick for all the items of the course. This is a paid program and it should take care of such loose ends especially that it is being imparted by a reputed institute on a famous online portal.
Moduel 4 peer review and my assignment review was a straight through process.
Moduel 2 and 3 were complete before Module 4 and they still are pending peer review and assignment marking.
I have started my 4th Program on Resilience as my purpose of doing this program is to get the specialization course completed, this is my bread and butter and professionally it means a lot.
Appreciate if this issue is resolved and sorted.
