Really interesting course. The interactive coding sessions with swirl are especially useful. Would be great, if you provided sample solutions for the programming assignments, in particular for week 4.

Excellent course! I already knew a lot about R - but this class helped me solidify what I already knew, taught me lots of new tricks, and now I have a certificate that says I know `something' about R!

Decent course. Material is a bit stale, aka questions are common on several sites. The course was not really challenging, though i did learn a few new tricks.

The pace of the course can be increased. Unnecessary videos present. Time is very valuable. Fitting max useful information in less time in the most important.

I have achieved my objectives of learning the basics of R through this course. Only I wish there were little bit more information on the plots... ggplot2 etc.

The course isn't bad, but you need to be aware that it gets quite difficult at the 2nd week. I had to stop it because the assignment was way to difficult.

faculty is quite quick...must be clear and understandable to the students. pause and resume this happened quite often....but the overall process is good ...

Good course, at the end a bit difficult as you have to program your own functions. For a person with no R knowledge at all would be very difficult to pass.

Decent class with good programming assignments. I wish there had been more examples of actually writing code in the lectures, but that is my only complaint.

Only problem was the large gap between the assignments and lectures. Swirl exercises should not be optional as they are the most helpful part of the course.

The course is fun coz of swirl. But the tutorial videos aren't very informative. sometimes it's not so clear. I think improvement can be made at that area.

Designed for everyone who wants to know the basics of R along with introduction on how to play with large amounts of data and get the statistics out of it.

Good course. Would have been great to see a few more examples to explain concepts but otherwise great flow and good support through swirl coding practices.

You might consider splitting the quiz in week 1 into a quiz over the lecture material and a quiz over the programming assignment. Similar to weeks 2 and 4

The lectures were very well-explained & detailed but the assignments were very hard to solve. Overall this was a quite challenging course and I loved it .

Great course. Challenging and requires some independent problem solving, but from my experience, that's the way it should be. Fun and interesting as well!

Very good introductory curse of R language, teaches you everything you need to start your own projects, shows you resources to start learning on your own.

Thank you for course! I really appreciate it, I've learnt basics of R. But I'd expect that there are more excercises and more features of R be highilghted

the course is nice and the lectures are easy to understand but what's bothersome is the skill gaps between what's taught and what's given for assignments

Programming assignment is not fully covered in the lectures, prefer to have subject metter completely covered instead of searching for everything online.

It is a very hard class for anyone who has never programmed before, in order to complete the assignments you have to look for a lot of extra information.

Needs more training and practice for the writing of functions assignments and quizes, it's very hard for someone like me with no programming experience.

Very good course. Programming assignments were enjoyable and challenging. They may be a little difficult for someone without a programming background

The content was great, especially the swirl() library. The instructions were a little confusing at times, but the online advisors helped to sort it out.

Really great course! I wish though that the programming assignments were more hands-on and that common packages used in industry e.g. dplyr were taught

the level of the material and the level of the tasks did not match, I had to turn to other sources (such as udemy) to successfully complete the course

Good course overall. The course would be better if the learning activities better prepared you for the difficulty of the final programming assignment.
