I have two 2 comments to make

1- Course contains too much topics, apart from basic concepts there are too many technology things. One cannot properly grasp any one of them during the course. A bit of knowledge of everything makes learning difficult as well. I had to spend too much time to remove syntax errors of different labs. Better include a single database in the course.

2- There is no course material, I mean slides etc., if I want to teach some of the topics in my course, then there is no help from this course. Whereas I found complete slides in another course, that is, "Introduction to Big Data".

The course is heavily focused on theoretical aspect, reading materials and videos, which is good but would love to also have more videos on practical demonstration of getting IDE setup, codes executed, etc. As a beginner, I found it challenging to setup IDEs, especially IBM Cloudant, also it seems the start mongo code in IBM Cloudant sometimes takes forever to load which I as a beginner struggled a bit and lost tons of time submitting projects. Overall the course was definitely helpful as I learnt new things.

The practice final project in Module 4 actually requires doing some of the optional materials in Module 5 (using Cloudant). But the actual final project does not require the material from Module 5. Somebody from the admin team needs to go through the course again to make sure the progression actually makes sense

Thought the final exercise was a little too hard. Had issues with gettting Cloudant to work with the code provided.

A lot of valuable content, but the mistakes in the exam evaluation are unacceptable, they cost people more than just time. Please review the materials.
