This part of the course was very disappointing to me. It was boring, I feel I learned nothing, it actually made me confused by the whole concept and everything I've learned here so far.

I really missed the readings after the videos: In the previous courses there was a reading after every single video, so I could just watch and listen to the videos, then take notes using the readings. In this course I had to continuously stop the video, rewind, and take notes, it was very frustrating.

I am more surprised by the lack of readings because this course even mentions that there are three kinds of people when it comes to learning something, somebody learns after hearing, some after reading, some by practicing, and I liked the previous courses because they offered 3 of them with redundancy. So after I heard, read, and practiced the same thing I felt I understood and learned it. Now I feel I'll forget all of these I heard here. I've taken notes but still, I feel disappointed and a waste of time and money after this course.

The previous courses were pretty awesome, especially the first 2.

I still think the language of the quiz questions is too difficult for non-native speakers.

The presenter is enthusiastic and energetic, and there was good information. But the extreme infuxuation in her voice went from what sounded like shouting to inaudible whispers. I noticed it most in the first 3 weeks of this course. The first word would be really really loud and certain points she would make would be similarly loud, and the end of the sentence would trail off to low inaudible volumes. This was a difficult listening experience because in order to hear the quiet parts of the voice, I had to turn the volume loud enough that the louder parts of the speech pattern were a shock to my system. I listen to the videos on my communite, so visually following the transcript is not an option. This was the case for all the speakers in the first three weeks, and not so much the latter 3. It was distracting from the material, and made concentration nearly impossible. Thank you for considering this issue.

Because of improper atention or lack of interest a peer which reviewed my task gave 0 points stating he couldnt find my uploded tasks. However this was untrue as the other reviewer had graded the tasks and given the correct points. Thie peer review sistem has its merits and can be productive but when faced with reviewers who cant even take a minute to find the atached file to grade the task the whole premise of peer review is lost. Find a beter way to implement this peer review sistem if it will stay in the course. Furthermore this course so far has contained the most amount of padding, repetiotion, and in my opinion overcomplication of simple concepts. You dont need to complicate simple conecpts to explain them, the simpler something explained the better it to understand it.

The content was good but it was very hard to understand what the speaker is saying. She didn't have natural pauses between the words. It was a big problem for me as I had to read the subtitles which took a lot of time. I don't recommend that course due to this issue.

Knowing doesn't mean the ability to give it to someone else. The first part of the class went smoothly, but then it became tough to follow. The instructor should have ideas or examples to illustrate and explain the class to make it easy for the students. Thanks

This one was probably the "slowest" course to get through out of the professesional certificate program. If you have any experiance in a professional environment, much of this is common knowleadge, ie. how to write and email, how to run a meeting.

i have finished the course but for some reason it tells me that i have not finished it yet and makes me watch the same wrap up video over and over again not giving me the certificate. is there any issue with the course or with the corsera?

As a data savy manager and heavy user, the way the data part is pictured is just wrong. Way too basic and build up with the wrong focus the be actually actionable. I think any other Data user will have raised the hands to the sky as I did.

Google and Coursera need to actually hold people accountable for these courses. No one really participates and quite simply replies with a "." the entire course, and both companies lose their credibility when there isn't accountability.

overall course is nicely designed ,however many topics and terminology are repetativein each course which create a lot of confusion .plz review and make every stage of course unique and more practical

I cannot continue progressively learning because the courses need to open. I received the message as follows:

It wasn’t the best course out of the six. While it included important information, it also felt a bit repetitive, with much of the content overlapping with the previous courses.

I should not have to commit to peer reviewed/graded assignments. What qualifies them to review and grade me if they are pursuing and thus lacking the same certification?

is that normal peer review took longer than a month ? is it a strategy to charge submission fees for a longer time by not letting students finish the course?

The course is basic. I was hoping for some serious tips/insights from Googlers about how they actually go about their projects. It is BASIC.

this course is good but i dont know why it takes so long to verify you have finished a course when you have done so.

some of the information discussed seem like it was just busy work and had nothing to do with project management

The content in this course seemed duplicated. Module 3, 4, and 5 could have bee shortened substantially.

A lacking effort!

Rating (Specialization) after (Course) 4: 2.5/5

This course is way too long.

TOO MANY FUCKING QUIZZES

Quite disappointed with this course and about how it was designed.

Despite this course being deeply in the context of "Project Execution", the phase as extremely crucial as "Project Planning" for all project managers, I found this course lacking in hands-on practices/demonstrations. It was often about solely memorizing the words and phrases the instructor said or mentioned in order for us (learners) to pass the upcoming quiz…For example, do we really need to memorize the types of dependencies? Um..., it would be good to know the differences, but the more important thing should be what we as PM are supposed to do if one of the two tasks (they depend on one another) can not be completed in time, right? Another issue that I noticed was that there were no details of KPIs. Instead, this course only touched on it in the end by stating "Your impact report describes how you met those goals or objectives against your KPIs"... Why not instruct us how to make and use KPIs??

Furthermore, whether we like it or not, all the previous courses often made use of a fictional company called "Office Green" in quizzes and as example cases, but it rarely appeared in this course, so I sometimes had a difficulty in picturing or visualizing the instructor's explanations in my head.

Since the Project Execution phase is where real issues, changes, and very unexpected things arise, I really wish that this course had been better designed with more hands-on practices including more illustrations/images instead of just theory-after-theory instructions.

And make it max. 5 weeks, not 6 weeks, for future learners. Way too long ☹️

Everything (for the most part) is great, with one HUGE exception. The peer review assessments. One, they are incredibly hard to follow as the directions are not at all clear. Two, they are being graded by other students in the course, they are not experts in the field. As a teacher I find this infureating because I know how to grade things, and students who are just learning how to do this are not the best graders. This is the reason I will be looking to get this certificate elsewhere.

this is the only grade where my peer reviews are innacurate. i have not had fun spending a lot of time producing effective and accurate information to the assignment for week 5 i hope to get feedback because i am producing good work and if i am messing up i would ike the correct feedback on the peer graded assignment that matches up to what i submitted.
