This course imparts a wide range of basic knowledge and skills in the field of trauma surgical and orthopedic treatment of patients. To facilitate this, the course employs a new concept of information transfer. We follow a scientific approach and a sophisticated combination of modern teaching methods to vividly impart the taught contents. This included case-based learning, comprehensive factual knowledge, and consecutive quizzes, which help to better memorize the learned contents and later employ them in everyday situations in the field of trauma surgery. The course participants are introduced to the multi-faceted field of the treatment of trauma patients. Different trauma mechanism and their sequelae are elucidated, as well as the respective gold standard of medical treatment of these injuries by means of modern trauma surgery. All episodes – of which each one is dedicated to a distinct pathology – follow the same approach: • Introduction and/or repetition of the anatomic principles • Prelude of the topic by means of a film • Classification of the treated wound, e.g. according to AO • Summary of relevant and current therapeutic options • Each episode is interspersed with short quizzes to immediately recapitulate the learned contents and which will help solving the exam quizzes The course was compiled by an interdisciplinary team of internationally renowned experts from the special field of orthopedic surgery from Germany. Depending on the respective consultant’s specialization, suitable case scenarios from our clinic are presented. Dieser Kurs ist auch in deutscher Sprache verfügbar.

Tons of information. English subtitles sometimes don't synchronize with spoken German. But, a useful course that is very well produced.
RK
very interesting course. English subtitles were not well synced with the video.

Excellent for learning new basic things, very interesting. Despite its in german subtitles are very usefull and also the ppts.

Whilst very informative, the course still has some errors, such as incorrect timing for subtitles and presence of untranslated portions.

overall very good but as an English speaker with little German ability would prefer if all the important slides were also in English

Excellent course! the fact that is based on clinical cases makes it easier to understand and withhold the topics.

The description of the course states that it is delivered in English with German subtitles.... it is literally the exact opposite. There's no way I would have paid for this course if it was clearly stated that there is not one single sentence of spoken English. Content, sure that was fine, but come on....
In the description of the course, it is said that english audio is an option. But it is not. The only option is with german audio and english subtitles
English version not up to the mark
It was an awesome course, particularly the case based learning was really helpful. Gained a new insight into the management of fractures. Learnt a little bit of German too, haha.
overall very good but as an English speaker with little German ability would prefer if all the important slides were also in English
Not in English language. Very hard to read and watch the video
Tons of information. English subtitles sometimes don't synchronize with spoken German. But, a useful course that is very well produced.
Great course! however, i must suggest you tu revise the sinchronicity of the english subtitles and the slides and german audio ! Its very annoying that in all videos the subtitles are not synchronised with the german audio nor the slides ! thanks all the same
No stars. This description needs to say that it is in German with English subtitles that are difficult to follow. I do not understand why Coursera does not have their own English version of this or something similar. Technically misleading for anyone who is paying for this!
I just want to know how I Un enroll.
Not in English Language
Helped me a lot and was particularly useful to me as i will be starting my orthopaedic residency within a month!!!
Excellent course for new trauma surgeons.
best online experience in orthopedic :)
Great course, should translate in Italian...
only recommended for german speaking people. All the slides are in german language and the subtitles are deloayed
Course content good but lectures in German and subtitles lagging. Would've been a better course if I would have been able to watch the lectures. Also many questions in the tests that had more than one right option. So overall opinion, lectures in English and go over the test questions since many have more than one right option.
Difficult to appreciate the english translation and not very accurately reflective for some parts
Course is in german and poorly translated to english. The quizzes are poorly edited with several questions having two correct answers or poor translation causing the wording to be incredibly confusing. It's a shame, because the educational material itself isn't bad at all but the presentation is awful for an international audience.
The course is very concise and very informative which describe in detail of the treatments approaches within the field of trauma surgery. Assignments and quizes helps in understanding the course and relatively quite challenging. I recommend taking this course if you are interested in trauma surgery and it helps if you have a bit of medical background in understanding the whole course since it is of an intermediate level. The whole course is actually in German, not English, but I understood the course perfectly eventhough I am not a native German speaker.
It was an amazing course, all the videos where great. The only thing I didn't liked much is that almost every video has an issue with the timing of the subtitles, so i became really hard to concentrate either on the slides and the voice explanation (i don't know enough german) or on the subtitles to get to a complete understanding of what is going on. I had to stop evey 2 minutes to translate the slide. This made the learning process a lot slower and I wasn't able to enjoy all the acted situations.
