Learner Reviews & Feedback for Fundamentals of Scalable Data Science by IBM

Covers exactly what is required for data science using spark in case IoT data applications and the fundamentals required for the advanced data science topics . I am happy with the course and the topics that I have learned so far!

Challenging, with a strong introduction to Data Science concepts an practical application. Valuable insights for how to get meaning from data. Enthusiastic instructor who clearly enjoys teaching and sharing about this subject.

I learned a good amount about Apache Spark, IBM Watson, and integrating both with Python.

I liked the shorter videos with multiple checkpoints throughout and found the assignments and tutorials to be sufficiently challenging.

As someone who has taken dozens of online courses across many platforms, I very much enjoyed this course and I am looking forward to continuing the specialization! Well structured and assignments that actually made sense.

pretty good course for a beginner new to big data analysis. I am glad that I got to know about the apache spark and learn it as a part of this course on the IBM Watson platform. will look forward to further modules.

Great course that covers some of the fundamentals of advanced data analytics. I use some of these techniques (like PCA) in my career for discovering defects in devices. This is a great starting course.

Concise course. Has its challenging aspects, but overall was clear. The best part is the programming assignment and tutorials: great hands-on introduction to IBM Watson Studio with manageable examples.

Nicely arranged course. However, both assignment on week 4 should be rechecked to make sure that it could run as exercise to student. Also, please make sure that the video is up to date and less error.

The contents of this course are really practical and to the point. The examples and notebooks are also up to date and are very useful. i really recommend this course if you want to start with Spark.

Very useful courses to take if you are beginner of data science. The course was not detailed enough sometime. But you will surely get a global view of IOT data analysis after this courses.

It's good but it really requires someone who knows and even master Spark Apache(+SQL fundamentals) so that you can follow and understand and take advantage of the course

A very nice introduction to Apache Spark and it's environment. As a bonus, it's also a very nice refresher to your basic statistics!!! Great course!

Its a great experience especially with this course. I appreciate Romeo the way he designed the assignments. It brings out the clear understanding.

A nice introduction to ApacheSpark on Python while learning about the fundamentals of Statistics and Dimensionality of data for Machine Learning

It feels really good when you get to learn something new and Coursera helped me to achieve something and learn something new and good.

great learning and thank you so much for great content for such topics. i loved this course and enjoyed a lot during learning.

I really like this learning method from IBM especially the instant quiz just to make sure I understand the important points.

This is one of the best course I came across so far, please keep on updating and adding such courses, Thank You

Easy to follow, excellent explanations, IBM Watson notebooks super easy to run and follow (maybe too easy)

Thank you so much for giving good exposure. for a basic starting machine learning career for student.

Excellent teaching by the instructor and user friendly well designed assignment platforms and quizzes

The course was well crafted enabling one to apply knowledge acquired in easy way in the assessments.

A wonderful course enjoyable and useful for my professional objective. Very thanks to the teacher

Nice and well-structured introduction to Spark; clear, accessible and useful quizzes / exercices

I love the course content. Simple but very informative and provides good practical exercises.
