A lot of the portions are theoritical and speak in a complex, hard to understand vocabulary of technical terms, specifically the beginning modules, which causes difficulty in retaining the information(knowledge) of the concepts near the end of the course. It would be beneficial to like have them explained from a very basic level.

I could have rated this course 5 stars, but there's one thing I would like to point out. The course is good enough, but it is packed with a lot of theoretical presentations. It would have been more enjoyable if it was mixed with a good amount of practical activities to stimulate learning.

Nonetheless, I have learned a lot.

This course is all about intro to software engineering. Throughout this course, I learned about software engineering basics such as SDLC, Different architectural patterns, and software engineering career paths. This course is a better choice for those recently entering the software engineering field.

This is a course full of definitions and some practice exercises involving python. There were some bugs in the exercises but, not a big deal. The instructors were very responsive and helpful. I really enjoyed learning about the software engineering careers in week 5.

I enjoyed this course and it made me gain more interest to want to learn more so I can execute in this career field. Except that i could not view the backend lecture in one of the video modules. i have been emailing the coursera team and still got no help.

I found this course too much theoretical. I think we are going to be a programmer so we should focus more upon programming, learning coding. While the theoretical knowledge is important as well and I understand that it's the beginning of complete course.

Wonderful course and i done every project. the content which was given in this project it was understable and easy to understand and learn. https://github.com/ibm-developer-skills-network/jbbmo-Introduction-to-Git-and-GitHub/blob/master/README.md

El curso esta bastante bueno. Lo que me juega en contra es el no entender ingles.

Traduzco todo online pero muchas veces no entiendo expresiones o conceptos, por eso mismo trato de mirar video tutoriales en español en paralelo al curso.

A very detailed and in-depth over view of Software Engineering. There are several sections where maybe they go to far into the weeds for an introductory over view of the field, but that is not a bad thing at all in my opinion.

This course was great and the best part was the practical part. It was simple but it was great. If you add more practical part it will be more fun than theoretical education.

Pauses are needed when transitioning to different topics.. at times I guess we students get confused when does a sub topic start within the video and when does it end

For someone to simply understand what Software Engineering field comprises of and thus maybe plan their career path in this field, this is a good introductory course.

En general está bien estructurado, las explicaciones son comprensibles. Sin embargo hubiese estado bien tener a disposición más tareas a realizar en cada módulo.

Covers a lot of ground. If you've been in the tech world, much of it will be review. If nothing else, it's a good "warm up" for the main curriculum's content.

Great approach to the theoretical part of programming, however a bit too theoretical though. There could be more hands-on activites other than only the Labs

Great course—comprehensive and well-structured. I highly recommend it for beginners and anyone transitioning into a career in software engineering.

It is good for those who have the mentality to pursue in software engineering. This course provide the best way to enroll into software field.

The content provided is quite useful for beginners because it covers the fundamental aspects of this field. I highly recommend it.

It was a very nice course, very complete, maybe too much complete (and extensive) for an introduction, but the content was great.

it need to increase the assignment about design and the uses of UML diagrams, also need more details how to write Full SRS

It is been quite a better learning and experience for me it has build my coding capabilities to the next better level

Very Nice course, better have access to slides and needs more diagrams to explain the myriad of new terminoligies

Very insightful introduction to Software Engineering. Great for novice and experienced professionals.

Great content, very well explained. It was just a shame not being able to download the presentations.

Very good course, incredibly in depth with content. However, I wish the lectures were less mono-tone.
