This course is highly informative for a wide range of audiences. The material is easily digestible and filled with evidence-based suggestions on starting and sustaining a life of physical fitness regardless of one's status in life. Furthermore, the videos and other paraphernalia can be used to remind oneself of the need to sit less and get active, and to help convince others to do the same.

O​ur life often lead us to a more sedentary life, both work and family obligations are sometimes reasons to sit and find rest on the sofa. But the more you sit the harder to reverse it. So at that time I saw this mooc and my life changed again. Movement requires to give some time and energy but gives you back joy, more energy and vitality.

Do not wait come, see it and Sit Less, Get Active.

Interesting course, I've learnt new information about the way to be more active, how to organise and plan a strategy to achieve my goals for a specific activity. And how to organise my schedule to be more active in my everyday life (walking to go to work,...). I've learnt also, how I could inform and give advices to family and friends to have a healthier life and be more active. Thanks

Really interesting course which showcases the importance of physical activity in day to day life, makes you think more about your own physical activity levels, gives the opportunity to read papers investigating the evidence base of physical activity and offers practical advice on how to overcome barriers to physical activity and decrease sedentary time. Would recommend!

It is a really relaxing and helpful course with detail advises on how to set up your own fitness goal to achieve it. It is suitable for everyone and everyone should take up this course as a handful and useful health instructor in modern life especially in nowadays pandemic situation when health is most valuable treasure that we all looking for.

I really appreciate the the extensive bibliography that you shared in the course.

I had always considered myself physically active but I had never questioned myself about the damage that caused me sitting for so many hours in a day. This course has definitely helped me create more awareness about the benefit to my health of sitting less.

I found this course incredibly helpful and full of excellent ideas and tips to get me to move more and sit less. For me there was an added bonus - I was born in Edinburgh but moved to the USA in my forties and have lived here for 20 years. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the sites of Edinburgh in many of the video clips.

Nice, easy course that gives you a lot of information about being physically active even at times you may not want to be or may think you cannot be. Interesting videos and graphics. A lot of important information to share with family and friends to help get everyone on the path to being more active and healthier.

I like the Coursera because due to it we become more informative about the things we don't know as I complete the course of sit less get active and ya that's the amazing one. By that i got informed that not only by sitting we make our self healthy we have to make our self busy in our ever day routine

The videos are really informative and cover most of the common concerns/excuses we have to avoid a physically active life style. I could connect to everything in the course and have improved my activity times from the past 3 weeks. This course definitely has given me a good push to improve myself.

Both the contents and delivery of this course are up to the mark. The instructors are highly successful in engaging the learners with the course materials. From my experience throughout this course, I'd say people of all ages and from different backgrounds could find this course very useful.

This is a relatively short course to get motivated to be more physically active and less sedentary time by having a set of goals and discussed ways on how to achieve it. The topics are straightforward in general so you wont really get bored on the concepts. Great job to the instructors.

Loved the course! Really got me thinking of ways to be more active in my life. And how to put that into goal form and then implement that into my daily routine. Also got me using my phone app for step counting. And got me motivated to make this a habit in my life! Great course! :)

This is a quick fun course with easy ways to get active. The course also discusses why it's important to be active and how active both children and adults should be. There are great optional readings as well if you're interested in more. This course is very informative.

This is a great course for those who need to understand all the basis about physical activity, it was a great review about pre-existing knowledge and gave me a different insight about things we can do to improve our overall health by doing small but meaningful changes.

Very informative & interactive MOOC. I'll definitely recommend it to others. This is the first ever MOOC that I've ever completed. It never felt like the assignments were a burden . Really enjoyed it. Thank you to all the instructors for putting up a fantastic MOOC :)

Excellent ways to increase your daily physical activity. Loved all the readings, especially providing evidence-based data. I plan on implementing a lot of the suggestions in my classroom in September, if we go back to the classroom in September (fingers crossed).

Interesting, simple and interactive course that provided useful information through reading, writing, videos, comedy making it more fascinating. Quiz were quick and short, more focused on how we would make ourselves more active rather than on memorizing everything.
