It is very useful. I learnt about the females who struggled for their rights. And because of them now women are enjoying certain privileges. Without them every country will be still a developing country.

The course was presented in an enthusiastic way. The content can be related not only to speech therapy but also to events and situations in daily life. It leaves you with a real feel-good factor. Thankyou

I would have liked more resources outside of the lecture - readings and videos - to reinforce the topics being discussed. That being said, I loved the topics discussed and wished there were more of them!

I enjoyed how this course was structured and the ground it covered. However, I would like to see more diverse coverage of feminist philosophies also talking about other countries and the repercussions.

This course didn't meet my expectations, and I am happy about this. Although I didn't get a theoretical base of feminism, I get specific cases that helped me better understand the core of feminism.

The course was interesting but the audio was an issue.. One has to put on full volume in order to hear clearly. But it has given me new perspectives to teach my gender studies course.

Through this course I see that the feminism movement links tightly to the social justice. Racial background also plays a big role. So thank you for a great course!

Lecture's pacing and storytelling can improve because sometimes it gets monotonous.

Also, would be great to keep the course updated as this was filmed in 2018.

I already had some deep knowledge about feminism which was propagated by Periyar back in Tamil Nadu, India. This course shows more concepts similar to that.

It is focused a lot on history and particular cases, but the introduction is great and enough to catalyze self-learning and questioning lots of things.

This provides specific backround on the movement that currently exists. I think it is helpful to understand the reasons why this is so important.

Good a lesson to learn What is a Feminists movement, but sometimes bored because the teaching method only has a listen to a person and lecture.
