This course contained some remarkable reading materials and quality videos with educated professionals. It was fun completing this MOOC with peer reviews and earning the certificate. Kudos UOL!

This course was very informative. I loved the interaction with the other learners. Their insights on the different topics gave me glimpse into how others processes and perceive information.

While the course touches on important and timely themes in global diplomacy, I found it largely disappointing in terms of academic depth and learning value. Much of the content is very basic, repetitive, and descriptive, offering limited analytical insight. Key concepts are often revisited without meaningful progression, which makes the course feel stretched rather than structured. For learners with even a modest background in international relations or diplomacy, the material does not introduce new frameworks, tools, or perspectives that would genuinely enhance understanding or skills. Several case studies and interviews are interesting in principle, but they remain at a surface level and lack critical engagement or practical application. Overall, the course may be suitable for complete beginners, but for anyone seeking substantive, intellectually challenging, or skill-building content, it falls short. For this reason, I would personally give it one star.

I think the course is more set to sensitize than it is to really teach. I can’t say I learned anything major apart from the very basics of what defines diplomacy. I feel like the content was also repetitive (videos) throughout but I’m glad reading material was provided for in depth understanding .
Otherwise it was my first course on Coursera and it was a good starter.

I do not want to sound mean, the interviews were interesting but the course did not feel engaging for me, I felt like doing it because it was short and I already had started, but it does not get deeper in any subject, the reading are too long or the link doesn't work...

Very poor course, nothing to learn from here. It virtually doesn't contain any videos and only contain some suggested readings which are too academic and difficult to understand without previous background.

Lecturer puts little effort in structuring or even providing educational materials. Few articles written by the wise does not cut the cheese.
