human physiology
I enjoyed learning about the human physiology holistically by understanding connections between organ systems in various physiological pathways as well as by the review of disorders that truly help understand better how the body works.
it's a really informative course ,but I think it needs time more than 7 hour in a week A comprehensive introduction to Human Physiology.
new and specific information with no branching in details Clear and concise overview of Human Physiology Useful course.
very good videos and not too detailed explanations I'm a high school student interested in human physiology.
This well organized course can provide a solid foundation in Human Physiology.
This course can help you grasp the most important core concepts and key woking mechanisms of human physiology.
A wonderful course which enabled me to learn a lot about the human physiology.
I should have started with the course Learning How to Learn first before I even started with this Introductory Human Physiology course because It would have better prepared me to understand the course better and be able to finish the course on time.
This course is actually more informative than the course for human physiology i took at university.
The lectures are in depth and gives ample knowledge in human physiology.
Thank you for all for all of the hard work required to create such a comprehensive course ı learned everything ı expected to learn about human physiology in this course Gostei muito do curso, achei excelente, só não gostei por não ter tradução para o português do Brasil.
Introductory Human Physiology course is a great tool to figure out how the human body works, focusing on the most relevant aspects of the organism and making it easy to understand.
I really appreciate Dr. Carbrey and Dr. Jakoi, who piqued my interest in human physiology.
For doctor, It´s a good opportunity to remember the human physiology and remember the gread things that it´s the human body.

background in biology
In my opinion, the student has to have some background in biology.
To do well in this course you definitely need a background in biology and anatomy.
Very nice for who have less background in biology like me.
Can be challenging for those will little background in biology and physics but the rewards are ample for those who persevere.
Somewhat challenging for me with my limited background in biology, but for the most part it was the challenge I've enjoyed.
I have no background in biology and took the course out of interest and to see what I could retain (and understand).

high school
I seek for something to learn about Biology and Physiology and this is definitely a great choice for both high school and undergraduate students.
:) Overall the course was very helpful and I was able to understand it without prior knowledge (except for my high school biology class).
An extremely wonderful course to a non-medical but with only high school biology background person like me.
high school student.But I learned so many things during the whole class.
I found it a bit tough because I'm only a high schooler but it was an amazing course.
As a high school student, this really helped enrich my knowledge of the human body.

emma jakoi
I should add that I did not use the forums regularly, but I saw that many students had, and that their questions were answered fairly promptly, often by Emma Jakoi herself.
I thank prof Emma jakoi and prof Mimi and Dukes University staff who strived for initiating course.
jakoi and jennifer
A very interesting and informative course, with excellent support from Emma Jakoi and Jennifer Carbrey.
Learnt a lot of stuff on how things happen inside all of us.Struggled in few sections, as i have not been in tough with physiology ...Feel program could be much more valuable by using 1) 3D videos to support the lecture2) more examples of the application of the concepts in real life3) increase the extent of interdisciplinary elements (Sports, medical, day in the life...)4) Videos of Experts to share their findings/research Thanks a lot to Emma Jakoi and Jennifer Carbrey.
It was a great experience...thanks to mentors and give guidance I want to express my gratitude to professors Emma Jakoi and Jennifer Carbey!And I highly recommend this course!This is an amazing experience!
Mimi Jakoi and Jennifer Carbrey are magnificent in their field, and they both provide their tremendous insight to a high-functioning foundation level for the subject.
