Some assessments were a bit aggravating, but overall an incredibly fun course that I recommend to any IT-interested people out there!

Great course, but a TON of information and topics are covered. I wish there were more exercises built in to give us more experience.

Although the information was presented clearly, I found it really hard to jump from GUI, to PowerShell, to Linux all really quickly.

Good module, the trick to get the interractive sessions to complete is to spend more than 5 mins on it even if it only takes you 2!

Some of the commands for the labs are a bit outdated in terms of syntax or destination, but otherwise a pretty good overview of OS.

Very good content no matter what level of knowledge you have, and should be required learning for everyone in HS level IT courses.

Last two assessments were a bit vague in instructions, but the overall course was challenging, yet very technical and informative.

This course is the best to start from the basic knowledge of Operating Systems.We get enough about troubleshooting our own device.

Very good course. The end of course exam was pretty tough. Especially the part where we had to figure out on our own. Good stuff.

Great overview of the Operating Systems. Only complaint I have is some of the labs need workarounds to get them to work properly.

The only problem with this course are assessments. You must improve them, it is so frustrating to do all right but not get grade.

I think overall it was good but i believe more practice and more depth into scripting and cli commands would be very beneficial.

For someone that had no understanding of Linux, this was a tough course. But I learned a lot and feel more comfortable with it.

Would be 5 stars but understand most of the linux stuff can be done under the gui. Also why Ubuntu and no kali or mint distros?
