    Asphyxial Death Course

    Good course. Info on recognizing hangings and strangulations via marks on the deceased body is key for me. The examples were appreciated as well, as it accommodates different learning styles. Reading info from a slide is one thing, but seeing it is another. Regards from Canada.

    Title coarse was good would like to see a possible page review of a missed question for better understanding.

    speed was good, but I was not sure how to go back and review part of the video. It may have been there and I missed it. Would be nice to have it

    Great Information

    This was a great overview of asphyxial death and definitions of the various types. The videos and graphics for example purpose were very helpful. I thought it was going to be more in-depth than what it was but overall a good starting point.

  • Kurt
    (4)

    My Thoughts

    This presentation was one of the best I've seen. Limited jargon, great explaining of terms and breaking down the various components with great information. The pictures illustrated the lesson well and the presentation was neither too long or too short. Great job!!!

    Asyphyxia

    Great course material and very thorough videos. The quiz could include some pathological asphyxia questions to distinguish from copd or anaphylactic shock

  • Ronald

    Misleading questions

    You really need to review your grammar in your questions. In the first portion of the quiz, your grammatical errors can cause a misreading of the question and, thus, an incorrect answer.

  • Erin
    (3)
    should have a rewind

    The videos don't allow for rewind. I understand that you can't fast forward in the video, but there was some information that I needed repeated and I couldn't access that information because the video doesn't allow to rewind

    title

    I honestly learned a lot from this course. Very well put together. Great examples. I also appreciate that the "image to prove that your watching" wasnt put at the suicide videos. There was a part in one of the videos where i did have to close my eyes and take a deep breath to continue. I completely understand why they are part of the course and appreciate that they were added. I work with people after they have passed away but I havent had a video of them committing suicide. I feel like I will be better prepared now for if that does happen.

  • Rick

    Told what was being taught for this section but probably needed graphic warning at beginning.

    Very well assembled but was not expecting the severity of the videos. Could cause some issues if anyone had a family member or friend expire in this manner.

    Although I've attended the Death Investigation Academy in Cuba (Missouri) this online class added a lot more information. I think it will be valuable if you ever investigate a related death.
