The course with the IBM Lab is a very good way to learn and practice. The tools we've learned in this module can supply a good material to enrich all data work that need to be presented in a nice way.

Learnt a lot from this visualization course. The one I found most interesting was making the dashboard. Although sometime the code and indentation are tedious, but this might be useful in the future.

I have mixed feeling about this course. I think the purpose of this course (visualizing data) and the different ways of doing it is really motivating and awesome, specially when you realize all the things you can do (types of charts , maps etc...). This is actually awesome!
However, on the down sides:
-Each video repeats the steps on how the database used in each course has been "cleaned". I agree with the feedback from other people, reminding us one or two times is fine, but in each video... This is too much!
-I would have liked more practical exercises, specially to plot multiple linear regression models (and polynomial of different degrees, in particular), to display on a chart, and to make predictions. That would be great !
-Labs: they are of unequal difficulty: some are relatively easy to complete, some require more thinking/research and time, while some have no question at all or very little. Maybe it would be useful to re-organize the labs ?...
-Week 3: as everyone mentions, the "artist layer" method is only briefly covered in one of the lab. It would have be really useful to spend more time on it, and on all the things we do with it. Like others, I spent lot of time searching online, and it took me a full afternoon to complete that part of the final assignment !
To summarize: it's a very important and interesting course, but video lessons should be re-recorded with deleting all parts repeating the initial database processing, and adding more topics such as artist layers, etc. Also, maybe split each lab in 2 since there are few labs in this course, but if we follow them correctly, it requires quite few hours to spend on each lab (at least for "beginners" like us starting learning about this topic).
Thank You !

This is an alright course, I wouldn't consider it a bad course. I might be too harsh on the ranking there giving it 3 stars, but there are room for improvements, mainly on week 4.
One of which the lab instructions should be more clear on what to do, I've seen many people have complaints on the labs, primarily on the introduction to dash. This lab specifically has done a subpar job on explaining what to do in my opinion. The lab doesn't make it clear enough that you need to read the instructions before doing anything. If memory serves me right, it is there, but was emphasized enough if that makes any sense. Maybe it isn't that much of a big deal. Anyways, after you got through that one lab, you shouldn't have a hard time with this course.
For the forum replies to the problems that the learners were facing, I don't think it's been all that helpful, no offence to the staffs/mods, but the responses/replies seem rather too vague for confused learners which makes the learners to ask more questions, especially from the Dash introduction lab/Theia Lab in week 4.
I find the videos are great on explaining the tools for data visualization, the quizzes are also good as well.
Anyways, again not a bad course. If anything, it's a decent course.

The structure of the course, and topic choice, are great. I have learned a lot in this course. However, the course could benefit from a real person reading the info, or at least a more pleasant robot voice. The course uses a lot of new code that was not covered in previous courses (I'm doing Data Science specialisation, and usually the code builded on the previous knowledge). Moreover, the course is unbalanced, and there is not enough time to practice building dashboards before you try and build one yourself for the finals. And the thing with dashboards is that they work only if you execute the code perfectly with is hardly ever the case. I am extremely motivated, studying every day, always rewriting the code by hand into the textbook, and have received 100% grade for every one of previous 7 courses. And yet, when I was doing the final assignment, it took me five days of studying for 4 hours each, of coding and reading Dash documentation before everything worked as it should, and I wanted to quit many times. I later discovered that lots of other students struggle with this course too.
