Excellent course! I already knew a lot about R - but this class helped me solidify what I already knew, taught me lots of new tricks, and now I have a certificate that says I know `something' about R!

Very challenging, but good course. I've been programming in R for over a year, but there were still some things for me to pick up in this class. Assignments were a challenge, but satisfying to tackle.

The pedology used here does not interest a learner. It seems as if the instructor is just reading through the slides.

The lecture is too general. Not a courser for beginners. But if your are not a beginner, you won't need this, so…

There's no connection between the assignments given and the lecture being taught. So many contexts are missing.

Disjointed and not cohesive. Start with the basics and build from there. The assignments are a waste of time.

It would be really helpful if the teacher gives more examples or graphs when he explains some concepts.
