A very detailed and in-depth over view of Software Engineering. There are several sections where maybe they go to far into the weeds for an introductory over view of the field, but that is not a bad thing at all in my opinion.

This course was great and the best part was the practical part. It was simple but it was great. If you add more practical part it will be more fun than theoretical education.

Pauses are needed when transitioning to different topics.. at times I guess we students get confused when does a sub topic start within the video and when does it end

For someone to simply understand what Software Engineering field comprises of and thus maybe plan their career path in this field, this is a good introductory course.

En general está bien estructurado, las explicaciones son comprensibles. Sin embargo hubiese estado bien tener a disposición más tareas a realizar en cada módulo.

Covers a lot of ground. If you've been in the tech world, much of it will be review. If nothing else, it's a good "warm up" for the main curriculum's content.

Great approach to the theoretical part of programming, however a bit too theoretical though. There could be more hands-on activites other than only the Labs

It was a very nice course, very complete, maybe too much complete (and extensive) for an introduction, but the content was great.

Very good course, incredibly in depth with content. However, I wish the lectures were less mono-tone.

Good overview of the subject. Although the project at the end, not mandatory, is a little pointless.

The course content is well done. Sound and animation at start and end of every video is unnecessary
