The tasks are short but are tedious. (Tbh, I spent days avoiding to finish this course 😂). Nevertheless, I have learned a lot from the course. 5/5.

Enjoyed the journey through the course. The projects are integral to gain confidence on applying design thinking. However, they are time intensive and require commitment.

This course has a painfully long assignment, which doesn't match the online course criteria.

Takes too long; requires people, drawing, and is more intrusive than thought provoking
