This course was really interesting and did a good job introducing complicated topics in usefully simplified form. It was a pleasure to listen to the instructor and I got everything I wanted out of it.

Gah! The second last assignment...for items in data['comments'] :Took me an hour to figure out that I needed to add that last bit in brackets! It just did the for loop twice each time... All the best!

Python with real life application or gist of i, enough to get started is what will you learn in this course. Definitely recommended. Thank You Charles Serverance.

Really understandable and clear, and always enjoyable. I felt like at this point we were covering a lot of ground and could use additional programming exercises.

I had to resubmit 3 of the assignments though I had already submitted the right one before and it also displayed that my answer was correct. Please fix this bug.

This course is very good to understand power of python to fetch the data from web. It helped me to write efficient code to web scrap and parse the required data.

The lectures are very good. I would recommend that more examples be added in the book. This will help students solve problems and understand the concepts better.

I would say a very good introduction to the topic.
Would be nice if maybe in the future you would add some more advanced excersises ( just to gain more practice)

As always Professor Severance was amazing. However, I wish he'd covered API's in more detail as i still don't quite understand what exactly is happening in them

Excellent course brought by Dr. Charles Severance. In spite of the difficulty of the assignments, I have achieved a broader view and understanding of web data.

The course is great, I just wish the assignments could've been a bit tough and explanation of the concepts and the code could've been a bit more comprehensive.

Very good course, I would like to have seen some more challenging assignment. Other than that, very stimulating and learned a lot about web protocols and data.

Good overview, but not as comprehensive as the last two classes. Also some of the exercises had errors which caused unnecessary delays in working the problem.

Overall pretty good, some of the last assignments have misleading, false, or information not addressed in the lectures that make them unnecessarily difficult

I personally find this course usefull. It teaches good current tools
Dr Chuck is a very motivating guy.
In order to get better the course needs more exercises

excellent, to improve the last module week try to explain it slowly because some times is so fast and there are things that are not super easy to understand

Was an eye opening course to access data from .txt files and the nature of data that could be drawn out, was more interesting in the way Dr. Charles taught.

Nice course, but we would enjoy it even more if it is more in dept for the basics of web like XML, JASON, Beautiful Soup, Client- server conversations etc.

Some of the assignments were pretty hard for me and I wished the explanation could be more better and had depth.
But overall really good course and helpfull

I found this course little difficult as most of the syntax deviates from what I've learned. I had to check multiple times before I could finish the course.

A more challenging course, as to be expected in this stage of the specification. It would be interesting to know how much of the underlying code is working

It has been a great course, learnt about different forms in which data can be transferred and how to access and interpret the data. Overall a great one :)

I think this course has many introduction about the logics of Internet, but it's not so interesting as in the previous courses in the same specialisation.

Excellent course, with examples on the use of web data. The explanation seems simple but the tasks encouraged me to investigate more to achieve the goal.

The class is good, but the content in the class is not that much.
I think more complex project to solve some interesting tasks in homework will be better.
