The course was informative on how to build, structure and develop the plot of our own stories. It was also very helpful in guiding us through the editing process. A useful course for aspiring writers.

I truly did enjoy the class and I intend to finish the entire series of courses! I just have to move on a slow pace which I'm very happy it is an available option as well as the discounts on classes.

This class was a good introduction to plot writing, only marred by the lack of genuine/helpful feedback on writing assignments due to the excessive presence of bots/people not taking the course seriously.

While I enjoyed and learned from the lessons, this relies on peer reviews and a lot of students don't read the work and automatically don't pass you. It was difficult to learn and grow without feedback.

The course material was interesting but the assignments and grading would have benefited from a tutor marking instead of peers. The peer marking was a joke - 90% made either no sense or just one word.

La verdad es muy difÃcil aprender algo ya que nunca hay retroalimentación aparte de la que dan los compañeros del curso. Solo son videos muy abiertos para explicaciones que deberÃan ser concretas.

I was hoping the lectures would be more dense. My previous coursera courses where on data science, machine learning, etc. I somewhat feel that the content on those courses is twice or thrice more.

Some of the instructions didn't seem to match the assignment and I think a lot of learners were confused. Needs more moderation. I did learn and found the challenges in the course useful.

The instruction is clear and quite good, but what good is feedback if you cannot read it. I can see my grade but there is nowhere to see what my peers had to say about my work.

the grading system could improve star selection process such as grammar; clarity; congruency; originality; captivation may broaden the critque of the story

Materials were engaging. Some assignment direction was a little vague. Some professional interaction or review would help to supplement the peer review.

What's most beneficial about this course are the assignments rather than the videos. I do wish though we got some feedback from the instructor himself.

Someone needs to review/proofread the final part and assignment. Many students were/are confused about the final assignment. Revise the video too.

Too many interviews without delving into the core of the subject. There were some good tips but left feeling disappointed.

The course is nice and informative. Unfortunately one can not do any of the pear rated assignments or pear reviews.

Very basic overview of plot, great for giving amateur writers a push in developing their stories.
