Comentários e feedback de alunos de Introdução à música clássica da instituição Universidade Yale

Good lecturer, nice focus on the subject... it awakes your sensibility for Music.

He is awesome in reaching every aspect of Classical music.

Great lectures, but absolutely no supplementary materials, no assignment, no lecture notes, nothing. Just video. Worst organised course I ever seen on Coursera

Not exactly, what I've expected, but one could learn a few new things. It is informative.

The course looks a lot like advertisement of a textbook. I don't have anything against ads, but ads are not very suitable for teaching.

What I've watched wasn't as what I expected.

I would give it 2 out of 5 as addressing my needs.

Interesting course but it had way too many quizzes and was extremely tedious. I would not recommend this course to anyone!

I was disappointed in the low level of this course, which I did not expect from Yale University. It is full of unnuanced generalizations, clichés and oversimplifications. Paired with dr. Wright's slow manner of speech and his blatant repetition of key words, I felt like I was in elementary school again!

The details are also not always accurate. For example, in the part about Handel, dr Wright says that his operas are about classical history and myth. In fact, more than a third have settings in the middle ages. I could accept this as a generalization, albeit a large and unnecessary one. But he also says that the title character from the opera Rinaldo is some figure of classical mythology, which is factually wrong. In the context of the video it was not important at all. Yet if it's deliberate, it is in my opinion highly inappropiate to 'change' facts to fit your generalization. And if it's accidental, it's sloppy. In either case, it seems below the standard of Yale.

And that was not the only inaccuracy, but I won't make this review any longer.

In short, my problems with this course are probably due to my wrong expectations. It is probably a great course for the larger public, but the level is below academic.

Class was boring and the professor wasn't inspired nor inspiring.
