Very good to every beginner out there trying to get into database management , tasks are really educational , only the normalization section needs more clarification. but as a total it is awesome

Excellent introduction to DB Management, I learned everything that I wanted to learn from it. I highly recommend it and actually I am already enrolled to the next course of the specialization.

This course has great content, but the peer review process is lacking structure. I found that most of my peer reviews were marked less than 100 with no guidance of what errors I had made, just the comment 'good'. There were also many mistakes in the answer keys, but no clear way to notify the instructor of the issues there were found.

Start of this course was very good. But after week 5, assignments became very repetitive and most of the assignments were based on developing an ERD in a tool called ER Assistant. I feel like this part could be covered in 2 weeks time and more stress could have been given to the SQL part of the course.

Though content is good slides and delivery style could be better. More comparison with latest technologies can be provided. Need for more interactive quizzes so as to make it more relevant to fast-changing database world.

Good course with a lot of hands-on assignments. Sometimes the lectures could be brought in a more intuitive way and were a bit 'over-theorized', which made relatively simple concepts seem more complex than they were.

Great content, horrible technical support from Coursera and the team that runs this program (since it is clearly obvious that Michael Mannino just recorded the videos and is not part of the class anymore).

Well structured course. The first lessons were much harder than the last ones. A good introduction to the basics but I'm not sure what I learned was up to date with the latest developments in the field.

Decent broad intro to the concepts of data warehousing. Very long with intro to SQL that could easily have been slimmed down especially since this is considered an intermediate specialization.

The course was clear, I had difficulties to find course materials, especially examples were used in the video class, I wish they had been put in more obvious places.

This is a good course for beginners out there. The examples make you understand the concept partially only. It tends to steer towards the boring side a little.

The course is detailed and covers key areas of database management. My concern the monotony of listening to the same instructor for all 12 modules

The instructors were really helpful throughout the course. Although this was a basic course, but it was informative and very much helpful.

Interesting, I would have liked to deepen SQL knowledge and practice. The conceptual parti seems a little bit too important.

Good for the most part, but some parts were covered too fast, and normalization was covered without adequate explanation

The instructions are a bit of a mess which highly affects the purely peer-reviewed assignments.

Explanations might work in the classroom but unfortunately not virtual by myself

Good lessons. Slightly too long on the ERD and Table Design

This is useful for the data sector.
