Read if you're going to take this course. While you will get excellent information from it, there are some major areas that the course is lacking that can make your learning progress slower and more difficult. Some of this includes errors in the programs used for examples in the course. But the main issue I found was that it is INCREDIBLY disorganized. In terms of teaching logic, it's mostly lacking that. On multiple occasions, you get administered exercises on content that hasn't been taught yet (only to find it in the next lesson) or you'll find that information isn't completely explained just to find the info you've been wanting shows up at the end of the course instead. Which makes zero sense. It would have been much better for complete explanations to occur while exercises were being assigned. There was even a video in week 4 where the prof. talked about us having "not done" what he was talking about yet when we had absolutely already done it in previous weeks. So, for whatever reason, this was clearly taught out of order (as is also evident in how the book exercises are assigned). It made a whole lot more difficult than it had to be. The course also could do a much better job than it does in explaining why the code works the way that it does. They tend to rely a lot on Code Lens to do this (you'll see what this is as you dive in) rather than give a really good explanation. Which, if you're already somewhat familiar with Python, this may not be a big deal. But it can be a big deal for beginners. And since the course is advertised as appropriate for beginners, it would be great if those explanations where handled more thoroughly. If you dive in, my biggest recommendation would be to watch all the videos in a week FIRST before completing any assignments and take great notes while doing it. Then, go back and complete the assignments and quizzes in order from there after. You'll be missing information you need to really understand the exercises otherwise. I would love to rate this higher. The information is good. But it was too much of a fight to find and learn to apply the information shared because of the number of course mistakes and extreme disorganization of the material.

Quality of video is blurry. Topics are good but not explained well. Real monotone

instructors and really don't make it any fun to learn. Basic teraching.

I thought that I would had many new things . But , I had very low level knowldege only . Am totally dissatisfied .

I hope the login fopp will fix next time and can't do nothing and same error page loop again and again. Thankss.

It's a good idea, just needs more refinement. It seems disorganized

course was too bulky, for a beginner.

Trop long pour très peu d'information

not for cs students

It is boring

good

Your site is glitching. I had to write all my assignments more than 5 times. For a while, I lost my mind, I'm still losing my mind because it's not allowing me to download my certificate. What is the point of teaching students computers when your own site is glitching and making life so difficult for us. Sorry, But this is the worst experience i have ever had.

The Runestone Interactive textbook is very glitchy. It is supposed to work when you are logged in with your Coursera account. About half the time, I am locked out even though I am logged into Coursera. I'm considering dropping this class and moving on to a different one.

rien car malgré que vous avez me donner un aide financiere il y a des tasks payant et c rien à avoir je ne peu pas avoir mon certificat

sir the date is 06-07-2023 why there is wrong date written in the certificate.. please correct the date

Terrible, terrible experience with the Runestone external tool. It does not work well at all.

bug in week 2 assignment, and can't pass it at all, the whole process stuck at 99%

I am trying to un enroll and I have been blocked from doing so

Too slow and assignment questions are not clear

It's so boring, and so many bugs in the text.

waste course not accesing of text book

Can't un enroll from this course

Boring, too basic and slow

not Good Course at ALL

not intersted

Very slow
