Amazing course! I learned so much from Dr. Chuck about the beginnings of the Internet and its basic infrastructure. Highly recommend it!
Knowlegable and handy to learn
Excellent course! Provided a lot of fundamental knowledge that will help me excel in my career.
There is a great deal of information in this course. It provides a true overview of the development of the web.
This is really an informative course for anyone who has a keen interest in knowing how the internet was invented and how network architect works. Listening to great minds and their vision was really motivational and inspiring. I really enjoyed the course and Dr. Chuck's passion for teaching.
Initially, I thought it's gonna be boring and nothing much to learn. But at the end of the course, I recommended this to quite a few of my colleagues and friends. I would recommend you too. Excellent course.
It was a great course.
The Internet History part of this course is amazing! What's really great is that you get to listen to a lot of people who were behind key Internet technologies (you'd probably want to have a bit of a technical background though as they sometimes delve into details not immediately understandable by a layman). Sadly, Technology and Security parts aren't that great. Dr. Chuck is a charismatic lecturer, but the information could have been more condensed, the slides look downright archaic in 2021, and the "crap password" thing probably already wasn't relevant at the time this course was shot.
Beautiful course!
A lot of well curated content in this course. The tests seem to assume you've only watched the video material and, that you are using a search engine for some of the answers. However, there's quite a bit more content here. It is survey level but, includes more advanced resources as well. This course is suitable for many demographics. Anyone from the curious individual to a network engineer will find this course worthwhile.
