Am glad I learnt a lot from this module, which I know will sharpen my skills for my chosen career path as a data scientist. Am hoping to learn more new skills to improve on my already existing skills.

Amazing course, amazing instructors and assignments. I really enjoyed working with Tableau.
You may experience some confusion for some assignments but don't worry! Just use the discussion boards :)

Acknowledging that mine is but a single data point of all the students, I found the material both lacking and scattershot. Very little time is spent on each topic, certainly not enough to truly know and be familiar with it. Indeed, it seemed to intend to only offer an introduction and single example of each of the features discussed. I prefer to have a much deeper understanding of a feature, and opportunities to see its use in action in a variety of cases. This gives me both sufficient content to form an understanding of the feature/topic, and experience in how it can be manipulated given a variety of conditions. While I can develop these later on my own, the lack of a cohesive image of what Tableau can do, and how I can use it, leaves me with a confusing jumble of ideas and concepts. Perhaps as I continue with subsequent classes, this course's skimming of a variety of topics will continue to develop, and help me to piece things together myself.
I did find the instructor's delivery of material good, especially given the lack of participant feedback as would normally occur in a face-to-face class.

Very helpful in getting familiar with Tableau. Great tips from the instructor, and a very straightforward intro to what Tableau can do. Course materials were sometimes carelessly put together, though. References were made to things in the Resources tab that are not actually there. Many of the videos were poorly edited (one repeated a significant section of dialogue), and the written assignment instructions had missing information. For example, the final assignment must be submitted to Twitter with a specific course-related hashtag, but the hashtag was not provided, it was left blank. No big deal, except that the peer graded questions ask if the correct hashtag was used. Speaking of peer grading, it's pretty useless in this course and just asks whether the instructions were followed to the letter, no feedback at all on the actual vizzes. Who cares if the right hashtag was used if the viz makes no sense?

The structure and the material of the course were great.
Issues with the course.
1) How the grading is done- Reviewers are providing the points without providing any comments. For instance. if the reviewer has provided zero points to the assignment, there is no way for the student to know what needs to be corrected and there is no constructive feedback provided. This issue limits student ability to learn and grow. This has never been the case when the courseera started.
2) There is no way student can reach out to instructor.
I really like courseera but if this is not improved, then I might have to switch to another learning portal. I feel there is a room for improvement, how the grading is done, and how student can reach out to it's instructor.
Thanks.

The instructor and the content were great, but there was zero support even when there are supposedly mechanisms to receive it. One of my peer reviewers basically trolled me and outright lied - for example, by saying I didn't use a data set from the official list provided by the instructor - things easily proven to be false assertions. I went through Coursera's "options" for resolution, and surprise! There aren't any for such a situation. I understand how many people take Coursera courses and why that limits the amount of help that can be given, but in that case, I suggest being upfront that there will be no assistance, so that students can decide whether to proceed based on honest information.
