I recently completed the "Introduction to Software Development" course by Amazon on Coursera, and it was a great experience. The course breaks down Java programming and the Software Development Lifecycle in a way that's easy to understand for beginners. The hands-on assignments were especially helpful in applying the concepts. Plus, the flexible schedule made it easy to fit into my routine. I highly recommend it for anyone new to software development!

This course is an excellent resource for learning the basics of software development. It explains concepts in a simple and accessible way, making it ideal for beginners. I highly recommend it to anyone starting their coding journey and aspiring to work as a software developer in the future.

Great Course! I loved the practice Labs too. The only thing that could improve is the checking of the labs. The Checking AI marks you wrong even if your code is perfectly good, but the period in a display message is added or not added. Other that that the course is perfect!

Good experience, but I think that the laboratories should have a more up-to-date review, many times the "TODOS" did not match and the instructions were somewhat ambiguous.

I appreciate the approach they use to teach Java and how they effectively correlate these concepts with the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)."

Nicely explained and with hands-on coding Labs, this course by Amazon is Great, also addition resources are provided to help with course.

Excellent video explanations and greater detail in the readings, the guided laboratories help a lot to practice what has been learned.

It is actually solid introduction to Java Programming, more than I expected. I am looking forward to Course 2 ^^

Curso muito bom, insina do início ao fim, gostei bastante!

I have found this course very helpful.

Great stuff for beginners

Excelente mucha practica

Amazing

Muy buena explicación, solo al final el ultimo laboratorio en la creación del Zoo le falta un poco más de detalle en algunas instrucciones o alertas para coordinar la salida esperada, puesto que si falta algún punto a la impresión o se edita mínimamente el texto, pero tiene el mismo significado, lo toma con un error directo.

Last module is a bit scuffed since you need to get the same results as the Emulation which is confusing since variable names can be different and they do not share how you should name your variables

The course is great overall, except that some of the questions' instructions don't align with what the 'grader' expects. It looks like some of the instructions in the questions are outdated.

Some of the assignments specifically the coding assessments are missing the code sections on the instructions page. Otherwise this is a very good course would be a 5.

It would be ideal if the course were in other languages. In addition, there are some errors in the statements that are clearly left over from previous versions.

The Overall Course was absolutely great. But the testcases for final assessment were not clearly mentioned.

Information was helpful and mostly clear, the grading on the the final lab is a bit finicky.

The instructor was incredible and explained everything clearly and with a lot of examples. My problem with the course was how unpleasant the experience with the lab exercises were. The environment was slow and the projects sometimes repetitive and dull.

A lot of typos, even in quiz exams... Also at one point some important syntaxes are skipped, while sometimes the narrative in videos are so childish. Had to google myself a lot and read Oracle's documentation.
