I think this course is much better than the Digital Media and Marketing Principles course. It gives us the opportunity to create our own digital marketing strategies and the reasons behind our choices

Wide and concise course, suited for those who are taking the first steps into digital marketing, or maybe are coming back to this field with renewed curiosity. It offers the basics of planning, analysis and context for the digital industry.

Great content, the only downside is that it is monotonous,making hard to stay focused for a long time. It would be more fun with some animations or highligts.The peer graded assesment was the best way to practice what you learned!

It was just the right amount of reading materials that needed to be covered throughout the course. The professor's explanation about concepts were really organized and helpful to grasp an overall idea about digital marketing.

Videos have been animated much better to make it more engaging. The professor could make his delivery more natural and engaging to build a good connection with the viewer. Currently, he seems very detached from the content.

Slides - I would probably suggest more graphical material instead of only text. Also I would suggest updating some of the require reading to more up to date material.

Overall anyhow a good course with clear explanations.

This course is very helpful to understand the importance of Digital Marketing. One should definitely do this course. I would recommend removing the guest lecture, and the instructor should add some tools description.

This course gives a great background to the foundation of Digital Media and Marketing function. The partner videos are good but at times are salesy. That is the only drawback of this otherwise great course.

the cousre is wonderful and practical. However, would be more practical as soon as you provide a list of tool that are popular for marketer in digital planning either in a template form or in a case study.

Useful content in lectures, but peer-graded assignment theme seemed too boring, would have preferred a more interesting topic in order to complete it with passion rather than for the grade-sake.

A course that gives good insights into the world of Digital Promotions. The assignments, especially, if one does his/her research well and takes them seriously, can learn a lot of new things!

This course is informative, but some material is beginning to be out of date. I suggest refreshing it to match today's marketing landscape and challenges.

At times a little difficult to track with lecture materials as most of the learnings were not channeled in the quizzes. Overall though, lots learned!

Overall very good. Perhaps a bit more in-depth at some of the subject but I off course understand that it was meant as more of a overview. Good book.

it needs updates and more real life examples.

it needs a real life case, like the explanation of a full marketing campaign from start to finish

I advise replacing some old readings with new ones. Digital is in continuous evolution and to propose articles from 2016 or 2017 is not fair.
