Simply amazing.
I really enjoyed the course and think a haven't learned so much in so short of time in any other previous course.
The feature with the integrated IDE in the video is the kind of innovation we need for learning.

Pros: First and foremost, I think the instructor's explanations are clear and complete. I feel I understand accessibility much better and I feel prepared to incorporate it on my own web pages.
Cons: I think the course structure could be improved. Having just one module with over 25 subsections in it is not good. I felt some of the examples in the lessons could've been more focused with shorter html and css files; and then maybe every 3 or 4 have the larger ones with more context (as was generally done in most). I found the positive reinforcement comments a bit excessive but maybe younger audiences will find them more appealing.

Great content & length - I would give 4.5 stars if I could. There is a built-in web platform that isn't fully integrated with coursera that was problematic for watching & interacting with some of the content - it would be nice to see the course with separate downloadable files for following along instead.
