Some of the questions on the final assignment questions were not covered on this course.

There was no course material teaching us how to do one of the tasks for final assignment

A lot of material is not explained verbally, videos are half-useless and repeating.

Final assignment confusing. Some code questions of the tests were poorly formatted

The tutorial videos needed to have more content and explanation and not the labs.

Please have more explanation in Videos. The content is not covered enough in labs

Solid lectures, but final project and labs had errors. Fix these problems soon.

Questionamentos e instruções confusas em relação aos outros módulos do curso

Code was not taught nearly as well as the other modules in the certificate.

Not Fully explained. The final agriment tasks not match with course content

No Instructors helping out. Little is learned... Not worth taking.

The lab stopped working and we didn't get any support.

Questions in the peer graded are little out of scope.

need to adjust material very bad labs and tutorials

Poor examples / labs! Labs very often not working.

lack of adequate instruction for some assignments

Poor study material compared to the assignment

The Skillshare network is not working. :>

Coursera:

The hands-on lab portion of the Coursera course "Data Visualization with Python" cannot be accessed for more than two weeks. Several students have posted their concerns, and they have not been answered."

On accessing the Skill Network through the site and clicking I am not a robot the screen appears that says "Please wait while we prepare to start your lab environment. This shouldn't take more than a minute." The connection either times out, or posts a gateway error more than 90% of time." I have tried on several networks, browsers and computers.

Attempts to bring this to Coursera Learning Services, led to the following email exchange:

From Coursera:

My Response:

Dear Coursera Learning Services,

This is an entirely unhelpful answer. My contractual relationship is with Coursera; you should manage your vendors.

Moreover, I have directly contacted the instructor, and despite their quick response, the problem remains unresolved.

I will file the report, because I sense that Coursera has no interest in advocating for their customers. I implore to advocate for your customers with your vendor to get this resolved.

CAN SOMEONE TAKE OWNERSHIP OF RESOLVING THIS? PLEASE!

This course lacks of explanations. Theory is very badly built. It was clearly the worst that I have done so far. I only learn about the "existence" of some tools or posibilities but it is imposible to understand how those works.

As I said theory clarifies nothing and as for the practice exercices would only for advanced students who already know the tools and need to practice to remember again.

The final assigment reflects the lack of foundation wich is consistent in the whole course. But the worst is that you have to do a master just to post the answers. You have to really do a collage of images, cut paste... really artistic. It takes more time posting the answers than really doing the assignement. At the end you would be graded not only for the accomplish of the final assignement but for your skill in fitting different screen shots in one image. Very sad.

Lastly, it is very disappointing to see that students have been complaining for those things since 2019 and they haven't done anything about it. That is ignominious!

I was diapointed with the course.

1)the most important thing is the Skills Network Labs. As i saw in the comment section and from my expirience the software glitses alot. i had the same code without changing it and was trying for 2 hours and it showed me that i had made a syntax error. the next day i did the same and i had the same problem. after closing the window and opening a new terminal for several dozen times the program actualy worked! without me changing my code!

2) the instructions on how to take the screen shots at the final assigment and are horibble and so confusing.for example in the drop dwon menu question it should say: "take TWO!! screen shots of each drop down menu. and put them in one file"

3)the course never explains the HTML language and just tells you to copy past it and make minor changes on it.

most on my effort on this course was spent on fixing a problem that i found out was the softwares problem and then trying to interpert the sceenshot instructions for the final exam.
