I have tried ID basic courses before. The course design was so bad that i have no motivation to continue. This is the best designed course I have come across. To the point instruction and great scripting & visualisation as well.
A course that makes things rather simple for the learner, yet is very much in-depth

I was quite amazed by how this course could explain all of the important things without making them not even a bit complicated. Not just the concepts and activities in this course, but analyzing the whole course itself will give the learner a good idea of how an excellent course/learning material should be when they’re designing it.
