Learner Reviews & Feedback for A Crash Course in Data Science by Johns Hopkins University
About the Course
Top reviews
This is a great starter course for data science. My learning assessment is usually how well I can teach it to someone else. I know I have a better understanding now, than I did when I started.
Is really hard to summarize the potential of Data Science and being clear, but I think that the instructors have done their best, so that we can achieve the most from the Course.\n\nGreat Job!

•The quality of audio wasn't amazing. Get yourselves better mikes, guys. The language was not properly graded for the beginner's level.

•A lot of the topic is described in a difficult way using unknown words(for a beginner) and with examples that I did not understand.
By Dave W
•Pretty basic course. Good if you are completely new to the space. There are good references to tools for further investigation.

•Nice overview for those of us unschooled in the language. Syntax of the notes and text is in need of major editing-proofreading.
By AKASH S
•the course must be more explanatory and the professors should not speak so fast. let us understand things. It takes time.
By Wenni Z
•Very preliminary, most of the course don't have a PPT or handout. May be helpful if you know very few about data science.
