The 'Research Supervision and Ethics' course was a great experience for me. I'm from Brazil, and it was awesome to learn from instructors with international experience. The course content was pretty cool, and I liked how we got to discuss real-life examples of research projects and the ethical challenges that came with them. I gained some useful skills, like how to create a research plan and how to work with my supervisor to get the best results. The course materials were mostly good, but sometimes I felt like they could be more interactive. Still, I'm happy with what I learned, and I think it will help me in my future research endeavors.

I recently completed the 'Research Supervision and Ethics' course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience. As a research professional from Singapore, I was impressed by the course's attention to detail and its focus on the nuances of research supervision. The instructor's use of case studies and real-world examples was particularly effective in illustrating key concepts, such as the importance of cultural sensitivity in research and the need for transparent communication with research participants. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, and I appreciated the opportunity to engage with my peers through online discussions and group assignments. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more diverse perspectives and examples from around the world. Nevertheless, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their research supervision skills.
