The course content and assignments are pretty good at covering the fundamentals of how to manipulate data in python , I did learn a lot that I can see my self applying practically . Where it falls down though is the assignment auto - grader . It ' s immensely fussy ( as I understand it has to be ) , but the assignment instructions are often very vague and don ' t sufficiently explicitly define whats expected . This means you spend more than 50 % of your assignment time debugging and recasting objects and getting very frustrated whilst doing so . I would recommend this course , but I do hope that the course administrators pick up on this feedback and make the assignments clearer in the future . | [

This was a great course ! A variety of teaching styles ( lectures , guest experts , videos , & readings ) , very well presented , & just fun . The " this is what I do for my research " bits add a personal touch , even tho this is a MOOC . Nicely done . | [

While there are a few technical issues , this is an awesome course . Not only is it is very detailed and informative , but entertaining and sometimes even amusing . Being so detailed and informative , a lot of the material is quite challenging . The tests in particular are tough . However , I highly recommend this course because it will make you really appreciate astronomy as a field and the solar system . | [

The content of the course is so good . However , I think the lecturers can do better job if the have more visualisation for what they are saying . A lot of time , I felt that I couldn ' t follow what they was saying and then , I have to pause the video and look at the pseudo code , it much easier to understand . Btw , thanks a lot for providing such an awesome course . | [

Dr . Ibrahim Odeh , was capable to put a five weeks course that surpass many other courses of one year lenght , the mix of theory and quizes based on real experience of top notch professionals of the construction field was great ! I recommend this course for any project manager that want to walk a step further in construction management . Congratulations Professor Odeh ! | [

If you happen to have the required background but somehow never got beyond beginner - level GR , this is a thoroughly enjoyable course ! There are obviously many text - books and online videos to learn more - or - less the same concepts , but the assignments here are the high point , they are hard , but for me personally , they are what made this course special . Completing this course somehow makes me feel much better prepared to self - study the intermediate / advanced level GR books I ' ve owned for so long ! Many thanks to Prof . Akhmedov , HSE , and Coursera for making this possible ! | [

Great class to take if you ' re a beginner or more of an advanced writer to refresh your learning on the subject . Love how I also got to learn about the editing and publishing process as well . Definitely would not have minded if the class were a few weeks longer . Very glad I signed up and took this course . I am more motivated to continue my life as a writer . | [

Great Course for beginners , without any programming knowledge . I am suggesting to take this course before you will do any other courses . This course helped me to learn on other python courses , which were overestimated as " for beginners " but needed already some programming knowledge . In this course all assignments are based on learned material ( based on lecture ) . I am glad that I took this course first . | [

A very good course . The best what I have seen in this area . I would make only some minor changes but I didn ' t watch the first course so there might be some complementary information what I don ' t know or wanted this course to have . The first 3 weeks is nice package for learning Bootstrap . | [

It ' s a great course , which is very helpful to learn some difficult things . Thanks very much . The only problem is my English is too weak to follow the English subtitle , so I have to use Chinese subtitle . Anyway , the course teach me how to learn in a better way , I will introduce it to my students . Thanks again . BTW , it ' s my first course which is finished in Coursera . | [

Im very happy to see that the authors improved the course by actually showing the students how to integrate JS and HTML . I still can ' t understand why its not allowed the access to the projects to students that won ' t purchase the course . There are several of other courses @ Coursera that require payment only if you want the certificate . I guess that hundreds of students would be happy to see that as the general procedure . Thanks to all the authors for such a wonderful material . Im continuing to the 2nd level of the specialisation . | [

Only shows a bit of javascript , css , and html snippets . If you expect to learn from this course , dont bother they mostly refer you to w3schools . com . They assume everyone knows how to code in html , javascript and css . At one point in the course the teacher says , if you don ' t know : Google , Yahoo , etc . , but if you are going to have to google 99 % of things , it ' s pointless taking this course . | [

This will probably be the worst course in the specialization and for good reason . The entire course is designed to overload you with terminology to get you up to speed for the follow courses . As a result this is a pretty bland and boring 4 weeks . The assignments feel like tedious filler an a lot of the questions in them are very poorly worded . The saving grace is that the course is just 4 weeks and can be completed in a fairly short amount of time . | [

Was a little too basic . Would have preferred more flesh ( both implementational and mathematical ) on the bones . I also found it absurd that each time the professor introduced a very basic linear algebra concept he kept saying somewhat patronizingly " this is for the experts in linear algebra " . Come on ! If one is taking a machine learning course , one can expect more from the students . Otherwise the course ends up being a flaky tap - dance on the surface of the material . | [

If there hadn ' t been so many hiccups with the videos and quizzes I would recommend this course . However , I lost a great deal of time viewing incomplete videos and trying to complete quizzes covering material that was not addressed or only partially addressed in the videos . Then had to go back and Review all the videos once they had been re - uploaded . It was a very frustrating experience . I lost momentum and even motivation and as a result am now behind with the assignments and quizzes . | [

An in - depth survey of perhaps most of the current techniques in machine learning . Very well presented , in a well - paced and understandable fashion . The mentors were very receptive and helpful with my questions . I think I spent about 20 hours per week to try to absorb the material . Highly recommended . | [

I looked at several other online iOS courses , I even purchased a couple before a friend suggested Coursera . The UCI program is one of the best introductions to Objective - C and iOS programming that I ' ve come across . The curriculum is well thought out and follows a logical progression . Don does an excellent job presenting the concepts in a way that is easy to follow , but not overly simplified . Grading is done as peer reviews , which is nice as it allows you to see how your fellow peers approached the problem . I really enjoyed this course and am looking forward to the next one . | [

A lot of great insight and knowledge here ; well worth the time . I almost didn ' t give it five stars , because I feel that they could have made room for just a bit more explanation and just a few more examples of the topics covered . Some of this is heady stuff , and doesn ' t benefit from being glossed over . Regardless , what you DO get out of this course is well worth the effort . Put in the time , and you ' ll be rewarded . | [

Great course ! The scope was just right , giving a broad enough introduction to spark interest and give the tools to further delve into machine learning applications . The course work was particularly useful - the use of Octave to get your hands dirty is a tremendous teaching tool . 10 / 10 would recommend ! | [

The course is amazing , the professor gives you right examples an amount of information for understanding the topics . After you finish the course you are not an expert but you have the right concepts and knowledge for developing your projects . Furthermore , the additional material ( interviews ) are pretty interesting . I audit the course but I did all the homework , you must do the homework to really understand the topics . | [

It was a great experience learning how to learn . Thanks this course I found where I am doing wrong and actually I´am learning new things easier and time after time I repeat the information that I have studied some years ago . I used to consider the fact that I am interested in many different things as a problem and all these years I was searching to find something I really like most to succeed but thanks to Barbara I learned that you can start learning anything even the things you are not good at , just by efficient study .

The course is really great and I ' m learning a lot from it . It ' s clearing a lot of my doubts and now I feel I ' m actually learning AngularJS for real . Thanks Yaakov ! You ' re the best ! besides the major technical issues and lack of information before the postponed start of the course and minor technical issues , the way of teaching is well adapted to on - site classes where you can sit in study groups solving the problems together ; the given examples have partly little relevance and do not help to solve the assignments and according to the staff the best way to solve assignments is by using google ( or stackoverflow or whatever ) really ? ! somehow it seems they just took an on - site course , played with some fancy technical solutions and call it now a MOOC . they seem not really aware of the fact that on - site teaching and MOOCs require completely different types of pedagogic methodsamazing how the same university can offer both the best MOOC ( Dr . Chuck ' s ) and one of the worst ( this one ) | [

This course was simple . Since it is intended as an overview of few machine learning techniques used to build computer based rational agents it has completely fulfilled my curiosity about what intelligent applications can be built using machine learning algorithms . Professors Emily Fox and Carlos Guestrin did an excellent job of presenting the course in an engaging way and with enough hands - on exercises to better understand the lessons . I am excited to take the next specialization courses to better understand the inner workings of each algorithm , and perhaps manage to understand why these algorithms work the way they do , specially the Deep Learning algorithms . Thank you Coursera for the opportunity and thank the Professors Emily and Carlos for such a valuable gift of sharing knowledge for free . | [

Machine Learning is a complete course about the mathematical techniques to make computers learn by themselves . In this course you will study the rationale behind mathematical algorithms and learn how to translate it into computation languages such as Octave or MAtlab . Warning : the course is fast - paced and requires some intermediate level on calculus , programming and algebra . You will be able to pass the course even if you are not pro at that but it will be hard ! | [

I still think that there is a lot to learn . the fact that I have limited time to complete the tasks made me hurry and not dig deeper into things I would like to . If I could use the forum and ask questions after the course ended it would be better . generally the course is very good for beginners . The instructor is very good and encouraged me to continue learning . | [

The first three weeks are totally trivial . I hardly doubt that anyone learns something except how certain practices are called . Maybe good for school students . ) Week 4 is better . I recommend the lecturer to improve the previous weeks and to redistribute some of the contents of week four . Some real - world examples which point out typical mistakes or give useful hints would be welcome in the first three weeks as well . | [

Brilliant ! I loved it . Every statement is very clear .

Neither statistics nor R was covered in any meaningful way . At the end of the course , you are left with frustration for having to jump through the loops , but no understanding of the principles . I am a college instructor for Statistics , having graduated from a PhD program - even with that background I could not follow the instructor . The course designer never considered the audience , and never identified the goals of this course . The instructor was lost between teaching R and teaching stats , so in the end he did neither . Worst course I have ever taken , both online and face - to - face . | [

The course has enhanced my reading experience . Writing in the margins… up till now I have never challenged or asked the writer any questions . This idea has never struck me before , but interacting with texts provides " room " on the page for my conversation with the writer , which is a visual reminder that all texts are part of an ongoing discussion and are not the last word on a given subject .

This course has been very interesting , however I believe that the mix of genre has been somewhat limited . While I respect the artistic choices and talents of all artists , I feel that the discussions in the videos for week 6 lack substance : picking up litter , photographing it , and arranging it for installation display strikes me as neither aesthetic nor documentary photography , unless the artist ' s message is in documenting our ' throw - away ' society and highlighting the importance of ' recycling ' for the benefit of the environment . Such messages did not appear to arise in my opinion . The discussion about architectural preservation was worthwhile but not focused . The interviewer ( s ) concerned could have assisted by asking relevant questions of the artist ( s ) for the benefit of an audience with varied photographic interests . My argument here does not involve the earlier weeks relating to the history of photography and the preservation of images for future generations which were excellent . | [

DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE - THE guy who reads ( not teaches ) the course , Justin - Nicholas Toytama is horrendous . He ' s too lazy to even type out the codes and has the world ' s most monotonous voice . He pauses often to read this notes and has 0 enthusiasm teaching this class . If this class is not part of the certificate specialization , i wouldn ' t even pay for this course . 64 gets you further with Nick Walter or Rob Percival ' s Udemy course . | [

Very good basic course for everyone interested in the European Union . Here you can learn about the past and the present state of affairs in the EU , as well as get to know some future challenges . The course is filled with lots of EU - related facts and statistics and presents the EU from different points of view . I would say the course is quite a " light " one : there are no peer - reviewed assignments and quizzes are rather short and easy , but it definitely gives food for thought . Be aware that the videos are in French but with English subtitles . | [

People use Python for many purposes : to make games , build web services , to solve business problems , to work with sensors , drivers and robots . Python is also used heavily in scientific fields for academic research and applied work . Python is an incredibly efficient language : your programs will do more in fewer lines of code than many other languages would require . Py4inf and Python explained by C . Servance , is a great developing of the foundations in programming ( first two courses ) that will serve you well for the rest of your life , as well as a course that will give you a sort of try to understanding of what great things python can do for you . I strongly recommend this course for anybody , who wants to start with informatics . | [

I have one word : Fantastic . The course structure is carefully designed . Assignments are not too much , not too less . The way they comprehend the lectures of all the previous weeks is amazing . I would definitely suggest the course to my peers . | [

Super satisfied with this course ! Lecture videos are top quality , the PDF is available which makes studying and going back to the material more easy . The swirl programming lectures are very well done . I learnt more than I expected , quicker than I thought I would ! Thumbs up ! | [

I can only infer that this course ' s target audience is rich pregnant women who care about shoe shopping and celebrities . Unfortunately I am none of those things and had to cringe my way through the examples , watching the videos at 2x speed . The course itself is incredibly shallow , even for a survey course , and basically serves as an ad for one of the professors ' own products - - Graphlab Create . You ' ll be much better off taking Andrew Ng ' s course , which is significantly more in depth and forces you to write your own solutions to problems instead of relying on a proprietary library . The only reason to prefer this course is if you really dislike the idea of using matlab . | [

Excellent course ! I find this Fundamentals of Graphic Design very useful for everyone not just designer . It does not only provide me with very basic yet very useful knowledge of graphic design but also helped me greatly in practicing certain skills that I never thought I would have . The assignments and all peer - review sessions are quite challenging too though the video sessions with the teachers always sound very easy to understand . I love this challenge anyway . Strongly recommended . | [

I especially love the professor ' s enthusiasm and passion for helping everyone learn cutting - edge machine learning knowledge . I would say it would be me to blame if I failed to learn machine learning . Dr . Ng has done his best . The rest is really up to me now . | [

This is an excellent course for two reasons : first the video lectures are very good , introducing complex concepts in a relatively accessible manner , and second the automated submission system is good at marking your ( well designed ) assignments . What could be better : compared to a traditional ( physical ) course , I miss the notes . It would be very useful if there was some form of notes , either as an informal textbook or cheat - sheets for each lecture . Another improvement would be that in some cases , it ' s possible to ' solve ' the assignments without necessarily understanding them . This is because you are sometimes given ' too many ' hints or the transformation of the existing code to the final form is rather trivial . Overall an excellent course though . | [

This course changed my life ! I truly never thought of happiness as a value until it was pointed out in this course . Prior to taking it , feeling happy really was a bonus to what my family and I valued . I was raised to work hard and provide for my family . Now , happiness by my definition is a value that is considered in my decision - making framework , and I choose to foster an environment to let it grow . Mahalo and Aloha ! ! | [

Difficult as hell . When You complete it You really start understanding this area but I think due to level of difficulty teaching staff should be a little more active . Big difference in difficulty in lessons ( which are easy ) and test ( which are sometimes incredibly difficult ) . If You want to work in Big Data field You HAVE TO complete this course but . . . expect hell . | [

Provides information from basic laws of inheritance to understanding the field of Evolutionary biology and genome sequencing . Explained in a ' light and easy to understand ' way ! Not a course you can pass by knowing a few facts about the subjects . Tricky at times , which help you find out if you understood everything correctly . Would recommend to others ! | [

Good overview for those without management experience . For experienced folks - - probably a good number since this is an Executive Data Science course - - it was pretty basic . Also some of the elements come down to management style . For some , other approaches have worked well and might not be ready to switch philosophies based on the course . Otherwise , pretty good . | [

The assignments are not very relevant to what is being taught . Java 7 instead of Java 8 makes things too verbose . Lenskit is painful to use and in the week 4 Honors assignment its just impossible to get the results desired by the grader . I would suggest the Teaching team to use R / python scikit instead of Java | [

I think the textbook does a great job of explaining things very well . I did not watch any videos so can not comment on them as supplements to the textbook . However , after taking this course , I do feel like I have a good foundation for learning Python and code in general . My only criticism is that the course still uses an older version of Python which has some differences and can make the learning frustrating if you are not aware of those differences . Granted , with a free textbook for an older version this is a minor issue thus far in the series . | [

I am sorry to say this , but the tutorial could have been organzied in a much more serious way . I do not know how much time the Professors have put on preparation . But it gives me a " sloppy " impression ! ! ! The class carries the name of University of Duke and 70 euros are charged , so I think the learners would reasonably expect to see that the teacher puts lots of time to organize the course structure , in order to efficiently give as much as information to the learners within limited time ! For example , I believe nobody would not say that the Week 2 content on confusion matrix is very consistently explained . And this is just one example . | [

My condition : a total computer science newbie . This course , as its proclamation , is very suitable for someone like me . It is a condense and delicate course , which means in order to get the skill to build a website , the only thing has to be done is following the steps in the video and finishing the assignment ; and yet every topic in the course , even a line of code , deserves further contemplation . Why Yakkov does this instead of that ? " is a question I frequently ask myself during the course . In short , this course provide a solid ground for developing skills in web development , and I sincerely recommend it to everyone who ' s interested in this field . | [

Can ' t recommend this enough . Professor Covach gives you everything you need as quickly as he can without making it drudgery at all . It made me delve deeper into The Beatles ' music and especially into years of their music that I didn ' t fully appreciate before . Now I can ' t get Beatles songs out of my head on a daily basis and I have some extra insight that only enhances my appreciation of their incredible music even more . | [

A great introduction to a critical topic and the best part was that I found myself completely involved to the course until I successfully submitted my assignment . Cheers ! | [

This course is well - developed and well - delivered . If one is a complete novice , start at the beginning of this specialty on one ' s own schedule ( on demand at the speed of light ) and at an affordable price ( $ 0 ) and be confident of significant advances in one ' s knowledge of internet function , in general , and Python , in particular . It is a brave new world . I often feel like Wylie Coyote staring through my toes . Suddenly realizing things have changed . This course fixes that feeling . | [

Functional Program Design in Scala is one of the best courses for those who want to apply the functional programming style in the design of larger applications using functional programming concepts . This course is intended to be taken after Functional Programming Principles in Scala . It is a great course for those who want to explore into the functional programming aspect of Computer Science . The concepts are explained lucidly and the assignments are relatively difficult and help the individuals to apply the learnt concepts in an incremental manner . I was really excited on taking this course , and it has lived up to all my expectations from it . | [

I like this course a lot because it solidified my understanding of regression . I have often read about regression when reading scientific articles however , i never took the time to really investigate the mechanics on how it is done . Thanks to this course i can now appreciate better the journals that i read . Furthermore , the course project for this course was quite interesting , not too hard , and was bit challenging . There was plenty of time to finish the project and some extra time to make it even better than a simple submission that meets the basic requirements of the course . Thanks to the my classmates and the nice people in Coursera and R , i had a great time learning during this course . | [
