Customer Reviews
Enhanced?
The sound is terrible!!!!! Very distracting. Also, one thing that people forget when recording live classes is that - "we who listen, can't see!!" -. They write something on the blackboard, and say to the students "This is very important". We have no way to know what it is. Also, when someone asks a question, we can't hear it. So, we don't know to what the answer refers to. They need to repeat the question, so it gets recorded, and tell whast they are writing, so we know it.
Great content
I find these lectures quite interesting and valuable. While at times it can be difficult to follow as people ask questions you can't hear, the substance of his discussions are solid. I just listened to lecture 8 on prosocial behavior and my mind is on fire with ideas I can apply to my work. Be warned though - this is not a 10 minute "how to" marketing piece. It is a long, thoughtful lecture on liking and social bonding. You'll need to spend some quality thinking time after listening.
