Excellenct course.

I could experience so many methodologies.

So tough to finish each project.

I really thank IBM and Coursera for this great course with just so small tuition fee.

A very well-structured course with useful techniques and detail guidelines. The Python code templates are also really useful when bringing into real-life problems.

Good introduction to Time Series forecasting. The Jupyter Notebooks are interesting and helpful, but the the video content is just the instructor reading off of slides or Jupyter notebooks. The video content is not the best use of time for learning, and the quizzes are 3 high level questions. 4/5 since the course does hit the main objectives.

This course is good but not as good as the previous five courses in this series. I think the points need more explanation and it might be more suitable to extend this course to more weeks.

Moreover, one has to go through peer review. I really wait for a long time to get reviewed. Moreover, after I put 'my course is going to expire soon', someone just gave all zero to my assignment and I had to reloaded the work again and found new people reviewing it. This is really a terrible experience.
