This is a university degree course which takes enormous effort to complete. But still its beond the programming course range giving you whats not possible to google or learn practical way. Thanks!

Thank you for this exciting course! I did the FP in Scala course a few years ago and decided to do the full certification now. I am looking forward to the next courses in the specialisation.

Definitely challenging. Sometimes there were some tricky gaps between what the lectures covered and what the assignments were looking for information wise.

The course is much better than the first one - it give much more real hands-one experience.
Would be nice to have: lecture slides, assignments with futures

Good assignments, lectures are a great introduction to Reactive programming but would be nice to have a "where to go from here" type of section/lecture.

Very interesting course. Four stars instead of five because it was less about "Program Design" (from the title) than I would have liked.

Overall learned a lot. Some contents are hard to follow but using supplementary material helped me to discover new things about scala.

Very good course. Sad that it is at the same time as the Functional Programming Principles in Scala, which is clearly a pre-requisite.

A little less content than the first course.
Also the videos and materials of the second professor are way worst than the first one.

The part by Martin Odersky was excellent, the other guy was kind of all over the place and a bit annoying. Good material though.

Apart from the slight disconnect of lectures and assignment in week 3 , I think the rest of the course contents were amazing !

A valuable extension of the ideas in the first course. Helped to continue to build confidence in using Scala and introduced

A few gaps left over from when this course was longer, which took a bit of googling to fill in. Otherwise, a great course.

The course itself is really good. But no response by the staff to any question in the discussion forums is very poor.

Sometimes the exercises don't match the content exposed for that week, but in general the course is really interesting

Good course, material needs more coverage in programming assignments. For example monads and futures were not covered.

Too short, In my opinion i would spend more time on future and async.
I dont like too much, when the teacher changes..

This part I liked less than the first. Less substance, and I do not like somebody replacing Mr. Odersky as a lecturer
By Török E

Basics of lazy streams, monads with for notation, functional reactive programming, and futures with error recovery.

Good material, but the course is way less structured than the first one and the lectures are not well connected.

Too much level sometimes. I feel like there should be more classes and details in the first and second courses.

The FRP part was too short. The earlier version were much longer and contained some introduction about RxScala.

The course is great. I put 4 stars because week 4 is very hard to follow up and may take more than one week.

Very challenging course, would be better to expand this course into a more detailed and slower paced version

This course has been very good, and i will recommend it to anyone who wants to learn functional programming.

Great course! Lacked the same polish as the previous course though. Week3 assignment had grading issues.

material for first two weeks are good. third and fourth are not so good. assignment is a bit too simple
