Not worth the time for a person having a biology background.

A nice but sometimes to shallow introduction into genomics

Good as introduction, but pretty basic for me.

requires prior knowledge

so fundamental

It was good

too simple

SO hard!

The first 3 weeks are very engaging and informative.

Unfortunately, week 4 made an extremely abrupt switch to very abstract discussions of statistics, and the paper in the final project completely killed my interest. Even though I passed on my first attempt, it convinced me not to spend any more time on the specialisation.

The course is extremely basic & outdated. Data science part comes only in the last part of the course, the content could definitely be enhanced with the inclusion of few latest technology information and developed research paper for project work (current project work paper is 21-years-old)

Totally introductory course. If you have biological science background, you don't need to take it. If you are not, then you might take it. But you'll find it difficult at the end of the course(project).

its important to interact a little beat with the virtual student i mean is necessary use different activities apart of the questionare

Since colombia.Thanks for your course

I learned some things that I didn't know from this class. Compared to other classes that I have taken on Coursera, it has rather low production values.

The course is a good introduction to the field but must be updated. In year 2021, lectures and data should not be from 2014 the latest.

This course is very out of date. The charts the instructor shows are dated 2009! That is 11 years out of date!

Not much content for an entire "course", but hopefully a good introduction to the rest of the series.

Explanations of concepts are too complex for non-biologist who want to approach the Genomic field

It is average, not cover anything important

The teachers speaks very fast

Too basic.

This part is a complete waste of time. IF you are going to mention the biological bases for genomics then you should do it properly, none of the important biological bases are address. If the idea is not to go deep into biology then erase the whole course because this way it really doesn't help.

The history part is way too long, I really don't care about that, I care about the current trend.

A whole module to say that statistics in science is important, really?, we all know that. Maybe it would be helpful to refresh the most important concepts that are used in genomics analysis would be helpful.

Really disappointing

there is some bug in the week 4 quiz i have tried for more than 20 times but it always gets stuck at 60% please go through it once... I have completed everything expect that i feel very bad not getting the certificate because of some bug/technical problems. i put so much efforts to complete this course but could not get the outcomes as expected.

The material are outdated, the approach is top-down, the amount of content is overwhelming, provided mainly in lecture form, with too few exercises and opportunities to practice and test one's understanding. This was fairly disappointing.

The material is trivial and yet presented chaotically. Additionally, there is a quality reminiscent of a child pooping in the potty and then begging for applause.

Awesome genomics lections! I didn't like statistics lections
