This has been a good learning experience. I now know the different project management tools available. I have a good understanding of project initiation and how to determine the success of a project.

The quizzes are extremely frustrating because of the ambiguity of their wording. I have had an answer be wrong but when I compare the result to my notes the answer I provide is completely right. Or vice versa I place an answer I believe is wrong and in my notes even is only somewhat right and then that is the right answer, extremely irritating.

I think this course could be shorter. The volume of information is not so complex as to stretch it for a long time.

If you are not a beginner and not a schoolboy, you will be surprised that you are taught how to use Excel.

Although the course contains useful information (links and examples of using tools).

Teaching is gift from God, not everyone has it. When I read any materials or lessons, I use a text to speech extension in Google Chrome to make it easier for me. Not having periods, commas, and other missing punctuation makes the text to speech extension keep reading and have other bugs.

I have submitted an assignment in week 2 of Course 2 and still have not received a grade. I have submitted it via attachment and google docs. Still have not received a grade or certification although the course is done and I'm on the next course now.

Lecturer's poor pronunciation and presentation skills were distracting. Also the peer grading process is poorly implemented. You may need to wait for weeks for your submission to be graded... there's got to be a better way!

It is a promotion for Google. I did not get to finish my studies. I am working full time. I am a single mom and the course cut off before I could complete it even though I was meeting the deadlines.

The content is good, complete and useful, but the presenter and her way of speaking are completely boring and confusing. Sometimes she doesn't even bearable and you should avoid watching videos

The idea of peer grading is really a horrible concept. You aren't able to move forward without others grading your work, which could take up to 7 days....greatly delaying your progress.

There are many similar concepts, such as objective and scope, and in many cases, I did not understand the difference. I think it is important to gain more clarity on these concepts.

Unhappy with peer reviews. My course is marked as 99% complete as peer review is not done. This peer review should not be mandatory. Please do not make this peer review mandatory.

I have no idea if I did anything right. Some questions and answers made no sense. I don't think there is much I can use from this course beyond the glossary. Still got 97%.

I think the peer graded assignments idea is crap! If somebody wants to rush through it, they wouldnt care how much they are rating. Pointless putting efforts in it.

submitting assignment and waiting for someone to review the assignment is a bit time consuming.

I hope coursera will control this step to improve the rating.

Frequently I faced issue with Assignment submission and yet there was no way i could find any one to connect and complain... about the issue I'm facing.

The course was great, but listening to her try to say the word successful was difficult. It made me want to complete the course as quick as possible.

VERY Basic. I was hoping to get helpful tips/insights from Googlers about how they go about their projects in real life. This course is very basic.

i did not enjoy this course like I enjoyed the first one. I feel as though it threw too much information at me all at once.

This topic is very important, however, the instructions for completing the Charter assignment and submission are confusing

Peer review process is not effective. Stuck due to nobody reviewing mine yet I have reviewed over 5.

The peer-review assignment is hard to navigate and defeats the purpose of the self-paced class.

Taking a very long time to get peer reviewed assignment graded in order to complete the course.
