Really great introductory information for foundational development and explaining the tools to use later on. Some of the information was discussed frequently and seemed a bit redundant, but nothing problematic, even the redundant information was relevant to the subject at hand.

Very approachable and obtainable goals and assignments. Doesn't have a lot of useless fluff like traditional college/university level courses. Does a great job introducing relevant material and laying a solid foundation, this is from someone who is completely new to the field.

While much of this course was review for me, it was still a solid foundation for the rest of the program and provided structured language for things that I knew intuitively. This course sets you up for success moving forward, and demystifies much of the Data Analytics process.

This was a great introduction. Even though I have a little experience with data analysis this course was much more comprehensive than what I have learned in the past. It provided the why certain steps are used instead of simply providing me the skills involved in the steps.

I really like the way the course is structured, each time a new concept gets introduced, it is reinforced through quizzes and repeated enough times throughout the course which makes it easier to retain it and incorporate it with the new information that keeps being presented.

the introduction part, mostly learn about the basic of data, the data analysis proces, the data life cycle etc. But, i enjoy to learn all about that, even i find some difficulty in some parts. Because you need to strong at basic, so when you face the case, you can solve that.

Data foundation, makes me clearly think that data with us, this starts with how our process of solving problems through analytical thinking then transforms it into available pieces as a form of data driven decision. The more fundamental, the more we know that it is important.
