I really enjoyed this class. It was a terrific introduction to social media and has provided me a strong foundation to keep moving through the remainder of the Social Media Specialty. I look forward to learning more in-depth information as I move through the remaining MOOTS.

This was a very nice overview of the components of Social Media. Although I knew a lot of it already, there were some wonderful gems of information and an introduction to tools with which I was not yet familiar. Thank you for a wonderful intro! Definitely worth my time.

Un curso excelente, con un muy buen docente, el contenido es de calidad, las explicaciones son claras y concisas y los ejemplos son adaptados a casos reales, ademas las herramientas que se aprenden a usar son muy útiles y completas. Estoy muy satisfecha con el curso.

I t is a good course to learn the basics about social media and how important is to develop your persona in social media. Here you don't learn what you think you know, you really get more information about the importance of social media in this generation.

The instructor is top notch, the professionals invited are the best in their speciality. The structure and content deliver the purpose.

I am honestly very excited to have found this opportunity to retool myself professionally, and open doors for a better future.

The flow and content of this course is fantastic. It's engaging, thought-provoking and really keeps your interest throughout.

It is evident that the course leaders have a real passion for this subject and it's an infectious trait for the learners too.

I am not sure what i thought when i registered for this course. but I have learned a lot of new information. More importantly, I am glad I am being made to do the assignment. Its making me think and act, which is a step beyond what I I had imagined.

I really liked this course, because it covered all the necessary basics one needs to be familiar with in order to start getting involved with social media marketing!

Professor Randy Hlavac is a very good lecturer and explains concepts really well :)

immensely insightful and beautifully put together.The only thing i found lagging is the fact that the course doesn't have enough peer graded assignments on offer or quizzes for that matter which makes it a little less challenging and competitive.

Really great information made easy to digest. This MOOC is full of useful insights into the world of social and what is means to marketing. Really worth the time for anyone trying to make a social presence for their business or other venture!

The course communicates very clearly its intent to help students build marketable business skills and they do not under-perform. It also stimulated me to stay with the multi-course program which is something that I had not seen in other MOOCs.

I had such an amazing time throughout MOOC1, Socials. The Facilitators have been so helpful in breaking down what the course entails. Thanks to Prof. Randy Hlavac and Prof. Judy Ungar Franks for everything, including other Guest Facilitators.

A fantastic introduction into social networks and virtual communities! The Internet neophyte can begin with very little intimidation and come out with a larger picture on how information and content value is processed among online communities

for a beginning level of marketer, I found this course very helpful. It game me a general idea about social media and resource collecting method. I will recommend this course to anyone who want to learn social media marketing systematically.

I am new to social media and using social media for business purposes. Seems timely, has me actually doing social media activities, and has focused on a goal of my choice. It seems to be quite useful, and I will be taking the next modules.

Very informative course. I love the way the course has balanced theoretical knowledge and practical application of the same. Happy to make the decision to join this course. Thanks Prof. Randy Hlavac, Northwestern University Team & Coursera

Excellent source of information to create a professional profile for yourself on social media channels. Helps you to better understand how to focus on a specific market and create a plan to become an influence to expert in that market.

Professor Hlavac is passionate about the subject matter and it really shows. I enjoyed his guest panelists who added another new level to the topics. Also appreciated the supplemental resources and websites shared with us. Thank you!

I'm very eager to complete the next courses to complete this specialization. I really enjoyed the freedom of being able to learn at my own pace, the videos, lectures and forum make everything so much easier than what I expected.

Incredible course and program. The professor is the best one I have had from 6 different Coursera programs I am taking, has relevant and challenging lessons and honestly, this makes me want to get my masters from Northwestern.

The course was well organized, but I wanted to see more pictures and illustrations because the picture

worth a thousand words.

in conclusion, the course was fantastic...and very thanks for the Professor, Kiron and Coursera

Brilliant introduction to social media based marketing and modern marketing in general. Engaging lectures and presentations as well as varied and enlightening reading. Would really recommend and cannot wait to start MOOC 2.

It's very serious lesson, I really enjoy it. Just I get some confusion at some point I would like to know if I can have some help of someone , a teacher or an expert? to solve my confusion and go further in my learning...

A very relevant and helpful course. The instructor, Prof.Randy Hlavac, explains the concepts behind social media activities in a simple and easy to understand way. I enjoyed learning from this course. Highly recommended.

Interesting propositions I must have missed in my contemplations and perceived knowledge of Social. Now I can settle down and have a deeper understanding of the subject and the new planet called Social Media Marketing.
