About the Course

Computers are everywhere, they aren't just the desktops and laptops we use for work but the phones in our pockets and even the watches on
our wrists are also computers. You probably use a computer every day and in fact you are reading this on a computer! Just because we use
computers all the time, doesn't mean that we understand them, or find them easy to use. Computer Science is the science of computers, it is
the field of knowledge that experts use to understand computer systems. Knowing a little computer science will help you understand the
computers all around you. This isn't a how-to course for a particular piece of software, instead you will learn some fundame...

A passionate lecturer and a good foundation for further studies in Computer Science. I would improve the section on Notional machines. I did go to the University Online library to look up more about Notional Machines to get a better understanding about the concept (As I thougt there was not enough detail in the course). More example of the Notional machine would have helped.

Very basic but very helpful. The course is like a gemstone in computer science. You can knowledge of computer science (which is a gold, silver or other precious metals) but you will certainly be able to have the most meaning of the jewelry if you have the gems (how computers work course) added to it.

This was my very first course on COURSERA and this course was really good.Highly recommended for Students who want to pursue Computer Science as their career.This course uses layman's language so that as a newbie you won't face difficulties about all the difficult tech stuff.

This was a really good course! There were some parts where I felt things may have been skipped over or videos repeated, but overall I think the information is very useful.

I liked the course very much, the professor's didactics is great. The only problem is that there are many problems related to subtitles synchronization.
