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.

I just finished course 1 and loved it. I feel very motivated to go to course 2 and move forward. This course gave me a general notion of what it is and how to proceed in data analysis, in order to avoid biases and injustices, creating an inclusive system with everyone.

This helps me better understand the difference of Data Science and Data Analysis. As well as Knowing more the importance of data in our everyday life. We might be not aware that we're analyzing data already from day to day task but it's what data is doing in our life.

Fairly well organized.

Engaging. Encouraging.

Good questions to test knowledge.

Lots of repetition.

Readings were a bit much and a little too much link out to extra resources that could have been perceived as overwhelming (e..g links to external videos, readings etc)

Fantastic course, very simple to follow, simple to understand, and to assimilate.

I loved the interaction with the "Googlers" they are super helpful and very concise so all the concepts and the learning material will stick with me for a long time.

Great course, thanks.

Even though the review is optional, I would love to write about this course if you are thinking to opt one. This course is rich in quizes, activities, assignment, situations, videos, and many more. This was just the one of eight courses and am excited to learn more.

Professional course in which I've gained and expanded my knowledge of Data and information analytics techniques. Just in five weeks of learning, my thinking about data and strategic planning upgraded to the next level of deep and closer insight into knowledge as all.

the course is broken down into small and engaging powerful pieces. The community board is not as engaging as intended as a lot of the comments are forced or random. Perhap this piece of the course should be optional after the initial introduction to using the board.

Very comprehensive course. Though I am in the field of data analysis for long time and have used most of the concepts mentioned in the course, still there were alot of new learning, while going through the contents. Looking forward for a lot of learning coming ahead.

Gives in depth knowledge about how data analysis works, few insights about opportunities and career growth as an analyst. Besides, also has a glimpse of the tools used. Graded assignments are interesting and helps you put your mind to work with respect to the videos.
