Excellent course if you are interested in start learning about Pandas, and data handling in general.
This is the BEST Python course I've ever taken! Thanks.
I thought this would be a good next step from py4e, but I went from feeling super confident and having everything explained very well and thoroughly to feeling like I'm being thrown into a 4th semester masters course and being expected to be able to keep up with everything. it's supposed to be an introductory course, but doesn't really explain anything. It's just like "look, this does this, this does that. If you wanna know more, which you do because we will test you on it, then look in the documentation" Constantly explaining things with tons of jargon that a person taking an introductory course obviously isn't going to know. And not explaining this jargon at all. Sometimes with some sentences I was cracking up at the idea that the person who made the video would really think I would know what they mean. There's no point in taking a course where they aren't going to teach you anything. If I wanted to do everything myself I wouldn't pay to take a course. Assignments often are completely different than what they discuss in the videos. They also talk and breeze through everything sooooooo fast. Really, really horrible course. Also really surprising that this has so many full star reviews but looking at the other 1 star reviews I can see that I'm deffo not alone in my experience.
The course has a good balance of information presented and application. The exercises in the assignments are pretty good. Going through the exercises reinforce the knowledge and also requires further research on topics not covered by the course.
Good and challenging course, though it's mainly self "figure" as the lectures don't really explain things in a way from which you can build a framework. They mainly provide a few concepts and hints for the questions. Perhaps that's good. At times the assignment questions lack context.
It's good platform to empower IT skill highly appreciated.
In general, it is a good course but going through assignments and figuring out what's wrong in your coding can be frustrating but I give that to being an online course of course.
Very good course to get your hands dirty. A lack of clarity in the assignments' instructions leaves students guessing.
I recently completed this course on Coursera, and I must say it was quite a disappointing experience. The course material itself was not comprehensive enough, leaving me struggling to grasp the concepts and understand the topics properly. However, what made matters worse were the challenging assignments. The assignments seemed to be disproportionately difficult compared to the provided course material. It felt like there was a significant gap between what was taught and what was expected from the assignments. This left me feeling frustrated and ill-equipped to complete the tasks successfully. I understand that courses should be challenging to facilitate learning and growth. However, there should be a balance between providing comprehensive materials and ensuring the assignments align with the knowledge acquired during the course. This course fell short in that regard. In conclusion, while the course had potential, the mismatch between the course material and the difficulty level of the assignments, coupled with limited support, made it a frustrating learning experience. I hope that the course creators take this feedback into consideration and make the necessary improvements for future learners. he is just a Radio! you can listen to him ! but wont learn from him
