I haven't taken any computer science classes since 1996, so this was a little challenging to figure out at first. But once I got the hang of the online classes it was fun and educational. It's my first course with coursera. I look forward to my upcoming IT classes.

I feel super accomplished. And I have a general sense of how computers work. Their history. How modern technology and the internet have come about, and how IT support professionals hand-hold us through our many problems. I'm excited and nervous for the next courses!

Knowledge is power and, as former Learning and Development analyst, I understand this course have content to address the three major learning styles back in my days (visual, auditory and Kinesthetic) . I really think I'm going to stick to this program until the end!

The optional quiz for week two could be better clarified. If you do not do it the optional build computer for peer review it makes it look like you have not completed all task and says 9/10 completed when you have actually completed 10/10 and have a 100% in my case.

This a was a great introduction to computers and IT support. There were some challenges along the way but it also allowed me to dedicate more time to read and process the information and really understadn the placement of concepts in the computer, networking realm.

The course was very much from extreme beginner level to advanced level. All the instructors explained real hard topics in a fun and entertainment which otherwise would be explained by the faculties in college in bookish language. Awesome course,Loved it totally..

While most of this is a refresher for me as I have experience with IT (self taught), the customer service part is important and something I do need to work on. Also made me think more how to interact with others, and not just speaking in a bunch of technical terms.

Best online course I have ever taken. The videos are short but informative which really helps in keeping your attention. The test and reading materials help but wish some of the reading materials were updated. Really well thought out and definitely worth your time.

Ótimo curso com bases e fundamentos de suporte técnico. Primeira vez que não preciso aumentar a velocidade do vídeo para que as falas não fiquem enfadonhas e o curso flua. Clareza nas explicações, dinamicidade e vídeos motivadores são grandes qualidades desse curso

A well organized introduction to the Fundamentals of IT. I started in a different program that was really hard to follow. I'm so glad I ended up here with the brains from Google and the way they organized the material for maximum digestion. I recommend this course.

This is the most exciting course I have ever taken. I never imagined with my small earnings here in Kenya and not being able to take myself to college that I will ever reach this far. I am very grateful to the Coursera and Google team. I want to push more and more.
