This gives a great foundation for Data Analytics. The instructors do skim over everything and I would have liked more detail but most of what I wanted to find out more about I was able to find online.

It was a great introduction to Data Analysis. To be honest, it is an intimidating task not knowing much about it but the material was excellent to get started. Some things were a bit too basic even for me but it´s understandable for a course that is aimed for everyone. Keep up the good work

I enjoyed the course and learned a lot from it. The content is well organised and focused on practical situations. I particularly enjoyed the bits of psychological research shared in the content. This course was short but very informative and very helpful for an aspiring leader like myself.

A supportive, informative, and insightful beginning to data analysis. It provides education in an open and encouraging way. With challenges occurring periodically throughout to test your learning but not in an overly aggressive manner or discouraging way. Cannot wait to go to the next step!

This is a good entry course. I already feel that I learned valuable information. The only suggest that I have is explaining the first incognito project better. Once there it did not state what was suppose to be done. I think that logging on was the lab. However, I did learn about incognito.

Accurate and covers key concepts such as data cleaning, data visualization, and the steps involved in the data analysis process. It's important to follow a structured approach to ensure that data analysis is accurate and effective, and that your information accurately conveys this message.

i mean Fantastic, Thank you Coursera to share this with us it's a gate for making shine.

Google explain everything very simply, Confidently, Google remove the anomalies and discrepancies that were coming into my mind.

Good Job Google and Coursera it's a mighty nuance of both organizations.

The course is good and I have learned a great deal about data analysis. The only thing is that there are some very important and relatively difficult materials for new beginners that are mostly in the reading. I wish these important and difficult parts can be installed into video teaching.

My man Tony did a good job of guiding me through. Loved the examples, especially the ones with a personal touch.

And so here I go, a young lad with an internet connection from Zambia, working to be in a position to offer enough value to companies that I can work from anywhere in the world.

Course resources are easy to assimilate, the pace is unique and you can always resume where you stopped without difficulty. The student community is another avenue to assess your understanding and instructors are experts who knows what they are doing. I love the knowledge received so far.
