I really liked being able to play around with some of the tools, but please, please update the names so that the videos/tools/assignments are unified. It became very confusing trying to figure out what they were talking about because the tools changed names.

It is an awesome course however, I'd like to learn more about Data Science Tools rather than IBM Watson Studio's featues and specialities. I understand that you should advertise your tool but 80% of the course is basically a tutorial for IBM Watson Studio.

Everything is interesting and nice

But the videos and tasks are not updated. So spend to much time...

Disscussion section helped a lot and thanks for it.

My sujesstion would be to inform in advance that all things are a bit different in videos than in reality

It has a lot of information which is great but hard to mentally process, mostly for newbies on the tools like me. Some instructions for the Labs are outdated or incomplete.

There were a couple of videos that didn't have a transcript which are very useful.

This course required a basic level of coding which I wasn't expecting, but was informative. Some of the videos are a bit outdated with instructions that don't match the current workflows of IBM Watson. That's the only reason I'm not giving it five stars.

It was a good course but some of the details were missing such as in RStudio practice, no explanation was provided regarding the codes which we are supposed to copy and paste on our local computer RStudio program. Similarly, it was in the Git console.

There is a lot of good information here. A great course explaining the basics of some tools that will be very useful in the future. The only negative is that some of the videos were outdated and showed demonstrations on older versions of websites.

This course has lots of very good contents, concepts and lab sessions. But time alloted to complete is less. As a learner, I feel, more time is required to actually learn this course and given time is only sufficient for READING the course topics.

Hello Everybody,

This course is great, i learned some tool that i have never even listen obout them. But there are some videos outdated and it can make the expirience a little bit confuse. But with a little patience its possible to got through it!

Excellent course on knowing the basic tools involved in data science. However, towards the end of the course, they kept the theme very IBM oriented and not general. Like using only IBM tools to do the course exercises. The rest were all very good.

This is very good course actually. I learned many things about the tools for analysis and also practice forward through the application. But sometimes several students cannot register for cloud or notebook service, I hope the developer can fix it.

The content was useful, but the quizzes/exam seemed to have certain instances of questions being less about knowing the tool and how to use it, and more about whether you retained every specific word said in the videos. The tutorials were useful.

Some of the instructions were not so clear/outdated, but the teaching staff were pretty timely responding via the discussion forum. A few things were not covered in the reading/videos so I had to do my own research to answer the quiz questions.

The "Week 3" module appeared to not have been updated and caused some confusion and issues with the final project. The discussion boards made it more confusing too.

Good and clear information in the first two weeks which is why it got 4 stars.

Great videos, Great start to the field of data science. Great review of the tools that would be used in this field. Suggestion: There should be more hands-on practice of the tools instead of explaining as it was done in some of the videos. Fo

There is a lot of description about IBM Watson tools and it's amazing at what one can do with those tools. It did feel a little overwhelming for a person like me (with zero knowledge about Data Science), but I guess it's going to be worth it.

This is a good introductory course, perhaps a bit too easy if you're already familiar with other programming and notebook tools. I nonetheless learned a lot and feel like it contributed to expanding my skillset and knowledge in data science.

Content is great, but it is not updated to match latest updates in IBM website, it needs to be updated to save students some time searching for workarounds on how to apply things mentioned in this course in the new layout of the IBM website.

Advanced course. Some topics were hard to comprehend. Enjoyed the deep dive into near 100 tools data scientists use. It was tough to understand 2 of the teachers in their videos, but I can understand english is not their native language.

Assignments reviewed by peers is not a fair assessment. I uploaded the assignment twice but still 4 points were deducted for no reason. All the exercises were completed as mentioned and all were passed based on the rubric criteria as well.

A lot of information jammed into a well-presented online course, The IBM platform is enormous and complex... it will take a lot more than this course to fully appreciate the services rolled into IBMs cloud services, but it's a good start.

The Quizes and Lab assignments are very well designed. If a student does not pass the final exam in first attempt then questions are changing randomly each time from different topics of the course that's good thing to check the knowledge.

The lesson for Week 1 is hard to keep concentrating and the way to simplify some contents is not clear for beginner who has no background knowledge like me but can't deny that this course is benefit for one who wanna pursue in this career.

some of the content and labs were not completele clear, specially around git.

some of the questions' answers were not completely covered in the material.

some of the content went unnecesarily deep when all we were looking at was the tools

Comprehensive information. However, the ability to use IBM Watson Studio and IBM Cloud Pak for Data for free as part of the course is completely broken. You can still complete the course, but you can't do the exercises in Watson Studio.
