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.

The course is very well designed to even address the needs of a student who is from a non IT background.

Words of empathy and lot of examples in the explanations made it much easier to understand the concepts. Thank you

i love how you guys go macro and icro at the same time in regards to the subject matter. I feel like you guys touch on everything on a high level and give us a tease on how it will be when we have to get more in depth.

I didn't know anything about this world, I'm a psychologist... they almost don't teach us numbers, but today I understand the importance of merging these concepts with my profession. Thank you for giving me the light.

I'm sure many will consider this chapter easy, but it was suppose to be this way. At the end of the day, you want as much people "graduating" to next courses, so learning curve can't be steep.

+1 for interactivity idea

I really liked Tony and I liked the hands on lessons. I also appreciate the lessons on bias and fairness in data analytics, but wish it didn't come right after the brief intro to SQL because that felt like a departure

This is the best course to start with. I must say that the difficulty level should have been increased to challenge the learners. It has easy quizzes and assignments. However, it is a great course to learn about data.
