An excellent course that provides a thorough overview of the changes that lead to the formation of the Modern World.

Very good course. Amazing teacher and how relates everything so easy and pleasant, thanks

Very well organised and presented. Inspired by the big picture nicely threaded together.

Very analytical. Not just a recounting of facts, but a thorough review of trends and attitudes. Very enjoyable course.

The professor Zelikow is so clear in his ideas, and with examples all around the world. He gives the essentials of History: everything happens for something and the causes are interconnected. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you.

Great course. Great Professor.

An awesome course, great lectures, neat presentation. I actually binged through it!

Nice material and it presentation! Thank you !

This course has a charismatic professor and lots of interesting information. I enjoyed it very much!

Although I already had much of the conceptual framework and general history of the course, the presentations filled in the missing detail of events and causes. Beautifully illustrated with art and maps from the different eras.

I loved attending the Modern World, Part one course.

I have been a student of history all my life but i learnt a lot during the course.

I would like to take up other history courses time permitting in future

Thanks

I absolutely love this professor! He makes the topic and class as a whole extremely engaging! I would take any class he teaches any day!

The greatest thing about this course is the connection of different events in the history to create a comprehensive picture about the global history. The professor is so nice and presents the course in a very interesting way :)

Professor Zelikow is making the subject interesting and is presenting me, for the 1st time with insight into the causes of many wars and revolutions in not only the Americas, but also in Europe and how they were all largely tied to the same causes. It has also opened my eyes to what is going on in the World today and how similar some of the underlying causes are the same now as they were in centuries past.

Exellent professor!

Despite a bit confusing use of info-screen, this really opened my mind and view to the rest of the world. It´s if he made me see world history + our present world in a whole new light. Thank you so much :)

Great overview of this period in history. Professor makes it interesting without overwhelming. I definitely recommend.

I actually took the pair of courses in backwards order and as I was finishing Part one (after part II) I was ready to go and do Part II again.

Really enjoyed these to courses very much. Enough detail but also broad enough to cover many things that were happening in the world.

Highly recommended as a course to get an overview on what was happening in the 2 plus centuries this course covers.

Great course I loved it with its all parts

love it！ very illustrative and comprehensible!

Amazing!! Thank you so much, I have learned a lot

Big thanks to prof. Zelikow and University of Virginia for making history so interesting, and this course a joy to watch. I feel like I got a new perspective of today's world and the processes that will shape our future.

I recommend the course to people of all professional backgrounds and interests, even those who never liked history in their student days.

Great Course! Shows the political evolution from a Feudal System until we have a Modern World that starts changing very fast through scientific knowledge, and the struggle from imperialism to democratic societies, to dictatorships, military goverments.

Great course. Professor Zelikow takes the entire world and gives us a clear and sometimes surprising story of the modern world. Amazing. So glad I took this course.

Superb
