The course provided a detailed and well-structured introduction to the field, with a clear and logical progression from foundational concepts to more advanced topics. I appreciated the inclusion of East Asian case studies, which helped me see the relevance of ethnobotany and ethnoecology to my own region. The course materials were of high quality, with clear and concise explanations and useful diagrams and illustrations. Overall, I'm satisfied with what I learned and feel that it will be useful in my future research and teaching endeavors.
