I found it to be a very interesting and engaging experience. As someone who is new to the field of ceramics, I thought the course provided a solid introduction, especially in terms of giving a broader overview of the pottery and ceramic industry. The content was clearly structured and presented in a way that was easy to follow, which really helped me stay engaged throughout.

The eLearning introductory course had lots of different interactive features which enhanced the learning experience. The content was easy to understand because all of the topics were explained well throughout the course. The flow of the course worked well and overall it gave me lots of new knowledge that I'll be able to apply to my degree apprenticeship in material science.
