Learner’s Suggestions/Recommendations:

There was not much information provided by the course leaders. It would be better if the instructors added some remarks that would help us gain more knowledge regarding this course.
The data in this course is mainly focused on Europe and that limits the suggestions given to the learners. It would be highly beneficial for us if the course used information from countries that were outside of Europe so more people could effectively benefit from such wonderful courses and easily relate with them.
