About the Course

"Everyday Excel, Part 1" is aimed at learners who are seeking to learn Excel from the ground up. No experience with Excel is necessary. While this course is meant for beginners of Excel, advanced users will undoubtedly pick up new skills and tools. This course is the first part of a three-part series and Specialization that focuses on teaching introductory through very advanced techniques and tools in Excel. In this course (Part 1), you will: 1) learn how to effectively navigate around the Excel environment; 2) edit and format Excel worksheets; 3) implement basic to advanced Excel functions (including financial, logical, and text functions); 4) learn how to manage data sets (filter, remove duplicates, consolidate data, sort data, and validate data); and 5) learn how to effectively visualize data through scatterplots, column charts, and pie charts. New to Excel? That is entirely fine! This course is meant to be fun, thought-provoking, and appeal to a wide audience. No prior knowledge in programming nor advanced math skills are necessary. The course is organized into 5 Weeks (modules). To pass each module, you'll need to pass a mastery quiz and complete a problem solving assignment. This course is unique in that the weekly assignments are completed in-application (i.e., on your own computer in Excel), providing you with valuable hands-on training....

That was extremely helpful, I liked it so much, I liked everything about it from the breaking down of new subjects, literally someone with zero experience in excel can understand and use these things

I liked this course overall, but it went into depth with some material, which I wasn't expecting. The screen casts and examples were awesome and helpful, and the professor explains everything well, but some parts were frustrating. There was some more math than I thought, and some homework was harder than what the material covered. It was pretty technical and practical, so if you enjoy that, you will enjoy this course. Here are my critiques:

- Too math-based

- No help available from the professor if you are stuck

- There are homework assignments that are harder than the lessons

- This course is hard to complete if you don't have a windows computer!! Would not recommend if you are a MAC user.

My biggest critique is that the assignments could be overwhelming and difficult, and some people take this course just to learn! I understand the point of the quizzes and assignments, I really do, but sometimes the homework can be a deterrent. If I had to pay for the course, I would have probably given up.

But, I did learn a lot, which is awesome, and you can tell the professor is very knowledgeable Explanations are clear and concise, whihc I like.

1) The course content is widely based on the use of MS-Office 2019 or Office 365, which makes it difficult to clear the assignments as easily as they would be on these versions of Excel.

2) Assignments and quizzes should have more sensitivity in them, as in assignments if a person could not solve any particular question due to any reason, the whole assignment turns into vain.

3) The difficulty level of all the questions is quite low, the only fact makes them a bit hard is that all the formulas of the newer versions are not available in the older versions, which makes it difficult so solve, else if one is provided with the new versions, then the assignments are just a piece of cake for them

I don't really like this course. it is a bit difficult and some of the assignments have questions that were not covered or just not enough information and there is absolutely nobody to help you or ask questions. your basically all on your own.

Overall professor does a good job explaining things, but instead of videos, or aside from videos, it would be good to have like a visual textbook. Also, technical issues need to be tended to quicker.

Course is great, but I had difficulties with quizzes and assigments. Maybe it is because English is not my first language or I need more practise daily with excel.
