I definitely would recommend more essential books and maybe TED Talks as well.

Great books on communication were written by William Ury

Hard language, some teachers are talking too quickly and hard to understand what they are saying. Not good structure of lessons. I would add lectures to read after videos, to make it more understandable. And also some some test to add. I didn't have this problem with UCI course Project Management which I liked a lot.

Excellent course and very easy to understand. However, I think that common sense is all you will ever need in order to be able to resolve a conflict. Therefore, smart/intelligent persons may find it kind of redundant.

Great course, useful material.

Peer graded only, no experienced professor will review your work. If your peers decide to give you a bad grade, you will have a bad grade despite the grade your work should have earned.

The course material its self is fine, if not useful. The major hurdle of the course was waiting for other individuals to submit coursework since peer-review is required for completion of the course.

Course is very good from materials

And case study

Instructors is well educated

But I think this course need more time and video

Great course, but sometime it is boring since the introductor just read materials. Hope this can be improved in the future.

Normal, esta bien para lo que es el curso pero si se busca algo en profundidad hay que acudir a otros cursos.

far too simple and shallow material. also reflected in the quality of the submissions

Informative but not ideal for anyone not going into business.

Need more in-depth just theory and superficial

Poca afluencia de participación

Good introduction to the topic.

Very basic, decent information.

Feel too short.

I didn't learn a whole lot -perhaps it is because I'm not coming into a professional setting as a newbie anymore? I found a lot of the examples juvenile - 'wearing a robe to the office' or 'stealing things'. I was looking for more substantial examples of idealogical conflict I guess -stuff that is harder to resolve than being a person of integrity and making good decisions. I know this is just module 1, but the content didn't feel valuable for the most part. The assignments were alright.

The format of the course is not very engaging. The instructor shows slides with generic statements and then reads them slowly. The case studies are quite artificial and the answers are too obvious. I was expecting more tricks how to apply this in practice.

Interesting, bit not worthy of the invested money.

I want to bring it to Coursera's attention that this specialization on Conflict Management is poor quality, poor value and hardly any content. Week 1 is only a welcome lecture!! It is a 3-4 week course stretched out to 3 months so that students can be charged money $$$.

It should not be a paid specialization. It does not meet Coursera's high standards. Can you please forward this review to the right person?

Unfortunately, this course has not been useful for me for several reasons. It was not explicit that the conflict resolution was specifically referring to workplace conflict, as opposed to conflict in general. Additionally, the information was self-explanatory and the questions had obvious answers that could have been made without reviewing the lesson. Overall, I regret signing up for this course.

I've only watched the first section of this course, but I don't think I can continue with it. The videos are slow, delivered in a stiff and joyless manner, and provide almost no useful information. Text components are poorly organized and include typos and formatting issues.

Very poorly presented. You can hear pages turning and sometimes see presenter read the texts. Since there obviously is a script, it could at least be made available.

This is a joke right?

5 minutes long videos with questions after it shall teach me effective?!

you guys are ridiculous!

Not very interesting or well-presented.
