I've learned a lot about HTML and ist use. At the same time, this was a good English lesson for me.

Overall, I think this is a pretty good course. It is specifically geared for complete newbies, and due to peer grading, it does feel like a virtual classroom environment.
I docked a point because I felt that there are some quirks. The lectures themselves are fine -- however, I don't think the quizzes and projects match up completely with the lecture material. Some things, you are just expected to know by reading the online textbook and are thus not taught them in the lectures. The same pitfall I found in offline courses, which I feel is a bit unnecessary in online courses which don't have the same time constraints vs. the amount of material that has to be covered. But I'd hate to end this review on a bad note, because I really liked the course. It had a very positive and encouraging vibe, Dr. van Lent was very nice, friendly, and very clear in her lectures. She broke down CODE of all things into easily understood ideas. The chunks of material per week were just the right amounts to be encouraging and informative at the same time. I am registered for her CSS course and look forward to learning more from her!
Nice and great course
I thought the class was good -- lectures and reading materials were very helpful. I would have enjoyed a slightly longer format with more assignments to try different things out and work with the other students. I've been experimenting on my own though so it's worked out. I've signed up for CSS and look forward to continuing forward with this course of study.
I miss more exercices and programming
It's a wonderful course and nicely organized. Well done,
Great beginner course to HTML5 - Im a graphic designer but was never taught basic HTML in school and took this class to expand my knowledge in the design field. This course really explains everything in a way anyone would be able to understand.
Peer gradings suck btw
From start to web page launch, great course
Great !
