The course pace is pretty slow. It repeats the same points over and over again. Discussions and lectures are very long. If you are a high school student and have no idea about technology, then it would provide a basis for you. If you are an engineering student, or a tech-savvy person, then you can move the lectures quickly by fast forwarding or checking the main points quickly.
I started the honour track, but then I stopped it as it was unnecessarily long. I did not see much value in honour track when I check the learning/time-spent factor.
But of course there are new things I learnt here too such as Reality–virtuality continuum and some other things.

An excellent introduction to the new and rapidly changing fields of AR and VR, grounded in fundamental HCI (human computer interaction) concepts. Filled with videos, demos, and interviews, it's great for both people brand-new to XR and those looking to round out their basic knowledge.
Innovación...!!!
Amazing and useful knowledge about XR related!
Thoroughly enjoyed my Intro to XR: technologies, application & issues course. It was great to see a technology course cover accessibility and equity in depth and with the importance they deserve. It also gave me the opportunity to try my first ever accessibility audit of an VR application: Mozilla Hubs, drlling down from the POUR principles as I looked for equivalence between WCAG 2.2 guidelines, and where possible related success criteria, and an immersive VR application. The course also covered privacy, security, and ethics and it was also interesting to see the intersection with accessibility and equity in those subject areas. For anyone wanting to investigate the technology, rather than just wanting to program with Unity or Unreal Engine, I can't recommend the course enough.
This course is really amazing as I could learn very new and exciting things. The content is well designed to go smoothly and the instructor gives lots of examples that help to understand the questions and the applications of the technologies even if we haven 't access to it at home. I highly recommend doing all activities presented in the honors track since they add a lot to the process.
Good Course as it provides a complete overview of AR/VR/XR technologies for anyone curious to learn about this field. I believe however, the assessments were fairly simple and could have been slightly better.
good
