Very good course, giving beginners an overview of various aspects of data analysis, as well as having data analysts share their experiences, which is a great way for learners to get to know the field.

Great information but VERY misleading. Instead of showing a 5 week course load, I think it would have been more transparent to show that this is only the FIRST 5 weeks out of an eight course program.

A good intro to data analytics. Videos are good, short and to the point and can be sped up. Tasks are also well adjusted to beginners level and overall the course is not overwhelming at all, it's very bite sized and manageable. This is the first part in 8 and takes approx 22 hours to complete. 176 hours in total.

I really enjoyed this introduction to Data Analytics. I have no background in this field, so I was a bit unsure what I was getting myself into. After this first section, I'm motivated to keep on going, and feel like someone like me, without a background in IT, can find a way to learn and succeed with this course.

As someone whose work schedule fluctuates, I really appreciate and love that this course allowed me to work through it at my own pace and on my own time. I like that it was broken down so much, and that it was super easy to follow along with and go back to review the topics I had completed whenever I needed to.

It was very helpful to me! As a beginner in Data Analytics, Google has really simplified concepts and processes for me to understand. I am able to grasp things easily because it has been so beginner-friendly. Also, I love that Coursera offers free tials for courses so it gives everyone a chance to complete them.

This course has taught me a lot. Being a freshner in this field I was nervous before starting with the course. But, the way the course was designed, it went very smoothly. The assignement test after every module made the review very interesting. The quiz questons during the video made learning very interesting.

Fantastic! As a complete beginner I love how they really broke things down to make sure we fully understood what Data Analytics is, how it's important everywhere and the roles analysts can take. Their approach gives you, as a newbie, confidence that you might be able to learn and fully grasp this new skill set

I was surprised by the larger focus on soft skills in the course, but quickly realized that the field of analytics is not limited to queries, coding and visualization. It turned out to be a nice balance and refreshing to write regularly my thoughts in a journal, complementing the more technical tasks required.

Everything is just amazing so far. I've learned and I'm still learning a lot when I watch these well-produced videos or read the provided reading materials. I even learn a lot through these quizzes, whether I get it from the first time or for the n-th time. The course is so good for real! Thank you, Google!

This elementary course is a great foundation, especially to those who want to start or shift their career to data analytics field. The more interesting thing about this course it is not just covering the theoretical aspects but also instructs about how you will do in practical life as a data analyst as well.

Wonderful course, it covers all aspects of a Data analysis career. All real-life examples help to understand the concept better. The teaching method doesn't feel like watching a recorded video instead it feels like attending a live session. Great work Google team. Thank you, Coursera for such a nice course.
