I really enjoyed this archaeoastronomy course. Professor Magli demonstrated outstanding knowledge of the subject, and was so generous in sharing his expertise through videos of worldwide locations.

Amazingly made MOOC. Perhaps it feels a bit short in comparison to some of the others, but the material is well presented and the suggested readings give plenty of opportunity for further learning.

Very interesting information about the connection between ancient monuments and the alignment with astronomical constellations. The instructor had a very heavy accent and was difficult to understand, however he seemed very well versed in Archaeoastronomy.

Bastante interesante el curso, sin embargo en el cuestionario final me parecio algo confuso debido a que mis nociones de astronomia (equinoccios, solsticios, azimuts, etc) no son algo que maneje con soltura

Should be a fascinating subject. Ancient peoples knew a lot about the stars and placed structures so as to observe them in various ways. Instructor has an extremely strong accent. Almost need subtitles.

A good course but I needed a better understanding of the basic astronomy before starting, the archaeology sections by comparison were easy so and could have been more complex

Week 7 is not up to par to the rest of the course. Some of the questions on the tests are never addressed the course

Found it difficult due to pronunciation of English with a strong Italian accent

Only the Western culture has been taken more into account. I guess it should be more diverse. Also, the scientific foundation has only been included in the reading section. It should be taught properly. Overall, the course just includes explanations of all the possible Western architecture. That's it. It's the only reason it got boring.

The contents of the course are interesting however it is a shame that you can only access the quiz portion and assesments if you pay for the certificate. Same with the materials, it would be great if the readings and the suggested bibliography details could be downloaded.

Zu wenig über Videos erklärt - zu kompliziert gestaltet. Das hätte man besser machen können. Auch grafische Darstellungen wären sehr hilfreich gewesen und die wären auch machbar gewesen. Es fehlt hier das "Herzblut" um das interessante Thema an den Mann zu bringen.

this course gave some facts but failed to explain them clear enough. The videos explained fair enough but week 7 is horrible only containing texts and its real hard to imagine the conditions

There's a minor language barrier that made the course more difficult for me. The course materials, especially the last week, have absolutely nothing to do with the quizzes.

Information was interesting, however I finished the full course in 2 days and didn't find the presentation of the information or the assessments to be very intriguing.
