Ratings and Reviews for Model Thinking

Excellent course. Even just the first two weeks are worth 5 stars. The math can be intimidating later on. Take what works for you!!

Really good. Fantastic overview. For my taste it was a bit too easy and it could have gone more in depth in some topics. But I understand the need to keep it general also.

This course is brilliant. Organised, well paced and has really consolidated the direction of study I would like to pursue. Thank you!

A must do course for everyone.. It's a rejoinder to all those who say that what you learn in schools/colleges is of no use in practical life.

Great Course !!!

This course is both very instructive and fun. The professor covers a lot of interesting topics. It would be better if he speaks a little bit slower, so the non native English speakers like me can understand all he is saying.

I have a Masters degree and until I took this MOOC I had somehow gotten used to the ridiculous notion that I had learned everything that I needed to know. I am pleasantly amazed at how much I still don't know and I am very excited to learn more. I have even started reading journal articles by Page and Zellner because I am very facinated by the models shown to me in this course. Thank you very much for making this material available.

It is a very interesting course. The lecture is easy to understand and the lecturer is very friendly. I got a lot of interesting and useful knowledge not only for my jobs but also for my life. Thank you very much!

this is what I need.

Contents of the course are very diverse, clearly changes your way and ability to identify patterns, and fit real world in to models to extract additional information ... It does not have a very in depth, description about most models, but enough to understand them, because there are so many different concepts that are fit together ... Its an excellent introductory course to models.
