    About the Course

    Improving health and healthcare institutions requires understanding of data and creation of interventions at the many levels at which health IT
    interact and affect the institution. These levels range from the external “world” in which the institution operates down to the specific
    technologies. Data scientists find that, when they aim at implementing their models in practice, it is the “socio” components that are both novel
    to them and mission critical to success. At the end of this course, students will be able to make a quick assessment of a health informatics
    problem—or a proposed solution—and to determine what is missing and what more needs to be learned. Who Is This Class F...

    Very good information and the teaching material is easy to process and understand. I think the stack is a brilliant method to assess and to learn it is one of the important aspects of informatics.

    A massive waste of time. Choose another course on the topic. The end assignment was vague and useless. The quizzes are difficult since the lecturer and the visual presentation do not provide much detail or explanation. I finished the project but did not get the certificate because there are no other participants to evaluate. Take that as a sign of the qulity of this course.

    I would not recommend this Course. Some Slides were not explained yet were referred to in the quiz.

    Instructor's train of thought/voice was unclear at times. Objectives not covered at the start but were on a slide at closing? No review of the answers to objectives at closing just statement of objectives.

    Of all the courses I've taken via Coursera, this is by far the worst. The instructor was/is monotone with a flat affect and seem to think professional dress was for someone else. I had to continously pinch myself to stay awake. I could not recommend this course to anyone I cared about.

    The Instructor's voice is unclear and monotone which makes it hard to understand the idea.

    Week 1 is long and contains very few information.

    The voice isn't clear, the professor isn't really aware of that he's talking about.

    Testing is wrong, exam is bugged. You can get right answer marked wrong and when you retake the exam, it gets marked right and vice versa .
