I enjoyed the course. You do learn a lot. If you are new to social media it's great. If you have been working with it for a while then it's great review with a few new pieces of information. The projects are good, the final projects are very tedious though and I can understand why. Overall great course and highly recommend!

Es bueno para iniciar si no sabes nada del tema, es un poco general y creo que estaba un tris desactualizado en formatos pero completo y te da una buen perspectiva general

The materials feel too AI-generated.

Course Feedback 1. Context This is the second online course I’ve studied seriously. My first was “Основы разработки на C++: белый пояс” (Basics of C++ Development: White Belt) by MIPT & Yandex, which set a high bar in clarity, pacing, and practice. 2. What worked well * Clear structure: The overall roadmap is easy to follow and helps you understand what you’ll learn and when. * Practical templates: The provided templates are useful starting points and reduce “blank-page” friction. * Strong opening module: The first module’s activities (brainstorming, planning) were genuinely valuable. They took time, but they produced meaningful insights and a realistic plan. 3. Where the course fell short (and how to improve) 3.1 Delivery feels scripted, not authentic Issue: The instructor frequently reads from a script; the voiceover and screen-read segments sound robotic. This clashes with the course’s core message about authenticity. Impact: It’s harder to trust or connect with the guidance when the delivery doesn’t model it. Suggestions: * Re-record key lessons with natural delivery (bullet notes rather than full scripts). * Add short “off-script” reflections: what worked, what failed, real metrics, quick stories. 3.2 Relevance drops after the first module Issue: Later activities skew toward a “fake bakery” scenario instead of letting learners apply everything to their own accounts. Impact: Exercises feel detached from learners’ real goals. Suggestions: * Offer two tracks for every task: (A) use the bakery demo or (B) apply to your own brand/account with clear prompts and checklists. * Include review rubrics that make sense for both tracks. 3.3 Content simplicity and repetition Issue: Many tips are very basic and repeat information already covered; some readings are longer than their value. Impact: Engagement drops; time-on-task doesn’t translate to depth. Suggestions: * Compress or merge overlapping lessons. * Mark sections as “Beginner refresher (optional)” to respect advanced learners’ time. * Add “Level-Up” boxes with advanced tactics, edge cases, and examples using actual data. 3.4 Assessments don’t measure learning well Issue: Quizzes are too easy; multi-answer questions often have only one obviously incorrect option. Impact: Scores don’t signal mastery; learners can “pass” without understanding. Suggestions: * Write distractors that reflect real misconceptions. * Include scenario-based questions (e.g., choose a content plan given constraints or analytics). * Add at least one graded peer-review assignment with a clear rubric. 3.5 Production choices reduce engagement Issue: Many “non-reading” videos are still screen recordings with robotic narration. Impact: Low energy and limited connection with the instructor. Suggestions: * Mix formats: talking-head segments, quick demos, annotated case studies, and short (60–120 sec) “authenticity check” clips after major lessons. * Show real assets (posts, analytics, A/B tests), including failures and iterations. 4. Impact on my learning Positive: I left with a structured plan and practical templates from the first module. Negative: Later modules felt less applicable to my context, and the easy assessments didn’t push me to demonstrate mastery. 5. What would make this a 5-star course for me * Instructor delivery that models authenticity (conversational tone, candid examples). * Consistent “apply-to-your-own-account” options for every activity. * Tighter, non-repetitive lessons with optional beginner refreshers. * Realistic, challenge-based quizzes and a rubric-driven capstone that uses my brand/content, not just the demo bakery. * More case studies with real metrics and before/after iterations. 6. Final note I appreciate the effort that went into the course design—especially the structure and the first module’s depth. With more authentic delivery, more relevant application paths, and stronger assessments, this course could be excellent for both beginners and returning learners.

For someone who has had Instagram since day one, I keep failing the same assignment over and over at the same score 65%. Not even multiple questions either! I spent my money for nothing. I failed more here in this one assignment than My whole 2 Data Analysis courses.
