Very interesting course, with old jazz music at the beginnings of the videos!

course was good, but I did not do the quizes.

This course really jumps from one broad aspect to another. I really hate that unlike edX, you cannot really do much without purchasing the course. Whenever you resume, it takes you to the orientation quiz that you can't even submit without buying the course (can't even do an orientation quiz for free?). And if you don't pay attention to what you can or cannot do if auditing the course you can do a whole assignment then find out you can't even submit it. This should be spelled out before you begin.

The process to obtain a grade is terrible, specially for the Honors assignments. I did them and given that there were no one to grade me, I couldn't have credit for them on the certificate. By the other hand, I enjoyed the course and completing the assignments.

Good overview course of ALL life even though I was expecting something more on the early emergence of life rather than the Carboniferous-->Mesozoic-->Cenozoic; loses a star for restricting quizzes & activities to only paying members

Different, fun approach. Basic science.

Too broad, too shallow.

Not really about Emergence of Life - a rather dull presentation...I lost interest; I'm off to the U of Alberta's courses...

Not the course content I wanted. Thought it was a biology course but mostlly palentology, geology, etc. instuctor boring.

Quizzes and assignments cannot be submitted if course is audited.
