The optional quiz for week two could be better clarified. If you do not do it the optional build computer for peer review it makes it look like you have not completed all task and says 9/10 completed when you have actually completed 10/10 and have a 100% in my case.

This a was a great introduction to computers and IT support. There were some challenges along the way but it also allowed me to dedicate more time to read and process the information and really understadn the placement of concepts in the computer, networking realm.

The course was very much from extreme beginner level to advanced level. All the instructors explained real hard topics in a fun and entertainment which otherwise would be explained by the faculties in college in bookish language. Awesome course,Loved it totally..

While most of this is a refresher for me as I have experience with IT (self taught), the customer service part is important and something I do need to work on. Also made me think more how to interact with others, and not just speaking in a bunch of technical terms.

Best online course I have ever taken. The videos are short but informative which really helps in keeping your attention. The test and reading materials help but wish some of the reading materials were updated. Really well thought out and definitely worth your time.

Ótimo curso com bases e fundamentos de suporte técnico. Primeira vez que não preciso aumentar a velocidade do vídeo para que as falas não fiquem enfadonhas e o curso flua. Clareza nas explicações, dinamicidade e vídeos motivadores são grandes qualidades desse curso

A well organized introduction to the Fundamentals of IT. I started in a different program that was really hard to follow. I'm so glad I ended up here with the brains from Google and the way they organized the material for maximum digestion. I recommend this course.

This is the most exciting course I have ever taken. I never imagined with my small earnings here in Kenya and not being able to take myself to college that I will ever reach this far. I am very grateful to the Coursera and Google team. I want to push more and more.

très bon contenu, des intervenants qui étaient pertinents. Pour aller vers la perfection la traduction française est perfectible et la procédure pour soumettre des corrections a des cours dont la traduction est considérée comme ''terminée'' devrait être facilitée.

I learned a lot during this course on the fundamentals. Having a lifestyle background with computers really helped me complete this course. While I learned a lot, I knew a lot of the information as well. I expect that the other modules will go into further detail.

I'm super grateful for an opportunity like this. This beginner's course was fairly basic, but there were tidbits of information that I did not previously know sprinkled throughout, and I am looking forward to the more advanced content in the later courses to come.

Engaging and relatable presenters who spoke with common sense and provided step-by-step outlines for each topic. Some of the qwiklabs were tricky, but gave me a sense of accomplishment when I finished navigating each one. Looking forward to taking the next course!
