This is a very useful course. I learned all kind of things that I really not have idea and that can be very useful in my academic and laboral life.

Very good ground floor introduction to Data Science and the tools and types of questions one will face. Information was helpful and concise. Bravo!

Thank you for the opportunity of taking this course. It was challenging for me. I found it to be very user friendly and inviting to investigation.

Very good for the people who would like to know the working of R and Git from the scratch. The articulation between them is beautifully presented .

A really interesting course, and also, basic and simple. The lectures are a little fast though. I hope I would continue this course if I have time.

Excellent course to get started. But whish I could move to other courses in parallel without having to wait for the R Programming course to finish.

I love Data Science. If possible, I would like to learn Advanced level of Data Science Subjects. My dream is a good Data Scientist. Thank you all.

Good basic course about programming language R and how connect with a control version software as Github to collaborate in some cloud repositories

Very nice introductory course! It will be better to give us more hands-on projects & the solutions rather than Q&A tests in the middle. Thank you!

I am a Brazilian, I am still studying my degree. I'm starting my DataScience career and this first course in the series proved to be really early.

It was easy to understand, though I'm not a graduate of Statistics, but because of the lessons and the technique used, I understand it. Thank you!

The course gives a good overview of the tools a data scientist will be involved with and lays the ground for the more complex courses that follow.

It's very useful course for people with no programming background. Gives a good review of Git and GitHub. Also I have processed my first commit :D

Very nice course. Talks about setting up GitHub and R etc. required for Data Science projects and key issues to address in a data science problem.

Amazing course for beginners. I really enjoyed it and learned how to set up my own toolbox. Highly recommended if you do not know how to start ;)

I found this course very interesting, not only as a very understandable introduction to data science, but for the powerful tools that it gave me.

It was really a great course, which give me useful knowledge. Thanks for coursera team for their countless contribution this universal knowledge.

I had no previous knowledge in Data Science, this course was an appropriate introduction. I learnt a lot, it is a good start point for beginners.

Its been a great thing that i am learning the data science and thanks to the Jhon Hopkings university to giving me a such good platform to learn.

A detailed explanation of installing R and setting up the environment.. A perfect start and the foundation to enter to the world of data science.

The course provided me with a better view about data science and I cam to know what are the tools and concepts which a data scientist deals with.

I learned a lot about Data Science and what could be expected by potential employers. It was very interesting. I look forward to the next course.

Great tool to break down the different skills needed to become a Data Scientists without using complex technical terminology. Highly recommended.

Like it very much, getting all the tools needed for the next part of the course and getting a sort of background or introduction to data science!

It's a very good course for beginners. If you already hace R and gihub it may be a little boring, but remembering the basics is never a bad idea.
