A very structured course to give basic and useful insight to the world of data analysis. From zero, one absorbs the possible levels of details and requirements to get into the world of data analysis.

excellent content but delivery can be improved. assignments should NOT be peer reviewed as some may not understand english and misgrade, which is very unfair

I would be glad for more "information heavy" and challenging introduction. But perhaps I am somewhat biased my background is in economics with math minor.

The course was informational, though the quizes were a bit too basic and answers were available in the transcript. It should have been a bit conceptual.

Pretty good, but I wish there was more variation. While very informative, the videos began to feel repetitive, making it difficult to pay attention.

Some questions too specific on video content, not related to knowledge. Job opportunities as data analyst should be at the beginning of the course.

I think it could be a bit more helpful to have more interactive follow along projects verses just videos with someone spurting out information.

whis course was very good , but it could be better if someone appear and explain the material instead of just a voice on the slides

I was unable to complete the course in a timely manner because I had to wait to review other's assignments. This should be fixed

I found it too basic; but it might be perfect for someone with no prior background so it's probably just right for that person.

My assignment was incorrectly graded resulting in a lower score. Found this to be unfair especially when you put in the work.

after i completed this course, i have bird's eye view about data analytic, but some of parts is too general, practicalless.

This final assignment should not be graded by people who didn't learn the material; otherwise, it is a good course to take.

the course provides an overview of the data analyst career. However, some content is kept repeatedly taught unnecessarily.

A few things did not work and there is no way of asking for help, I found this frustrating. Course content is good though.

It was alright, but it was all about information of what a data analyst is, not was they do and no practicum.

Final assignment has been reviewed incorrectly and provided lesser score, even when every answer's matched.

The course could have been more better, and there was less of human conversation.
