I was initially skeptical about taking an online course, but this experience has exceeded my expectations. The lessons were well-structured, and the instructor was very responsive and supportive.

The course was simple to follow but the videos didn't follow the order specified on the WordPress dashboard. They start off correct but then coming to the end of the course I don't recall any of the videos covering how to link the different pages and one of the last pages had a layout design that wasn't available to me.

My next criticism is aimed specifically at Coursera. I'm not a big fan of the guided course layout of having a virtual browser and the video stuck to one screen, I'd much prefer to have just the video and use my own browser tab to access the WordPress website and follow along. Also, it would be nice to have an autoplay option for videos and a distinct way to know if you've watched a video or not.

The course is very useful if you plan to use Wordpress as a platform. It explains many concepts very well. I had two problems with the course: namely the course is longer than is advertised (which is both good and bad if you have limited time). Second problem: when I returned to the remote desktop application where the course took place I was not able to log in again (the connection was not established). Also in a few places the course was hard to follow. Other than that it really is a wonderful course and I suggest it to anyone who plans to set up a website.

The menus etc... are old and following is impossible. The template the instructor chose was the perfect template for the project. However, I would not know how to add or eliminate blocks that are side by side. The page was for a blog, however, I would have no idea about using the blog, where the information is stored, if I can, or how to address readers' content or desire to add content. The contact page is great, except that I don't know how to receive information added by the visitors.

I really appreciated the hands-on aspect of this course. WordPress.com is a great environment to build simple websites and Stacey covered the basics capably. The only hesitation I have was with the amount of time used replacing every template image and typing replacement text she dictated, which could have been used to better enhance our understanding of the WordPress.com platform.

Most of the time spent on this course is overwriting the default Wordpress text with new text. This is a waste of time. I did learn how to use Wordpress but the instructor's audio should have been edited to eliminate false starts. There were too many cases where my Wordpress screen didn't match hers and I had to look up how to perform a function.

Expected a proper introduction to WordPress interface. It seemed the intructor was on a rush and she assumes we know it all and just shows the use of the tools. The text description used in the website should also be written somewhere so that students can copy and paste instead of spending 2-3 minutes in just typing the same thing repeatedly.

I gave it three stars because it would not let me set a free Wordpress-site via SoundCloud's interface.

tools. I have a wordpress frr-blog via wordpress CMS But the menu and interface does match so I cant follow along with the course. Sorry. Trying close out effort now. Like the course though.

I found the technology a bit frustrating at times. Perhaps because I am using a Mac. More than once I lost the audio; my screen did not always appear as on the video, etc. Overall, I enjoyed the process but will probably explore more online videos as I develop my own site.

Thanks

No pude hacer mucho debido a que al parecer, la página de WordPress ya ha cambiado. Ahora, para crear la página web de manera gratuita tengo que comprometerme a hacer un pago despues de un año usando una tarjeta de crédito. No me gusta la idea, así que tengo que declinar. :(

I was not able to follow using the Wordpress. Coz I needed to pay on something I do not understand yet. I am afraid as well to pay online using my account, There were times, I am being scammed and my details are being used by others. Thanks.

First star for very slow pace of instructor and the second one for not including seo or other important plugins in this course. It was for building a blog not an optimized ecommerce site.
