it becomes easier wand clearer when one gets to complete the assignments as to how to utilize what has been learned. Practical work is a great way to learn, which was a fundamental part of the course.

The syllabus of the course takes you in a roller-coaster ride.

From basic level to advance level and you won't feel any trouble nor hesitate a bit.

It's easy, it's vast, and it's really usefull.

Overall, I learned a lot from the labs and videos.

The organization of the material taught could be better.

There were some parts in the lab where the materials were very sloppy.

IBM Watson has changed it's layout a bit. There is confusion regarding a part of lab assignment so it becomes cumbersome to look at solution and still not being able to solve it.

I think this course in lacking explanations for some methods & code lines that are used in the skill labs.

In addition some of the questions in the final test are very low level.

Good material, but very poorly designed final Assignment, especially, people are using the links that other students' worked out before. Hope this can be improved in the future.

the programming task for the exam was not clear had some issues. For example it did not say you had to shift enter the one section so you would not get errors during the graph.

The content in the first 4 weeks was great and suitable for my current level in programming. However, week 5 was full of very advanced topics that I couldn't understand well.

The final assignment had very little connection with the materials taught. Overall this is a reasonably ok course, however there could have been more practice examples given.

Course content should be enriched with more exercises. There are many new commands or dictionaries highlighted without any actual exercise in which those new items are used.

For a beginner, the course goes to advanced level too fast. Another problem is the code in the Quiz just jam together that hard to read what does the question try to ask...

This course gives too many informations in a so short period of time. I would advise to go a little bit slower for people who are not expert in this field, like me. Thanks

The final assignment was confusing like hell. The incomplete instructions wasted a lot of time and seeped in panic. It should be rectified as it is ruining the experience.

Content Covered is very limited and quizzes were way too easy.

Also, quizzes are only based on your understanding and not testing the ability of individuals to write code.

Good introduction to py. I would have liked more background bokeh and some of the other library functions work. If you already have a coding background this is very easy.

Course content is good, however the last assignment is not that well structured and most of the screenshots provided for reference do not match the current IBM platform.

Training material is very high-level. I expected more in-depth and more hands-on. And as usual, I do not like Watson studio that much. I would not recommend the course.

I took a regular python before, so this course is easy. if you have no knowledge of python, this course help u to start data science without stuck in learning python.

course was ok. Sometimes the requests to download resources would not work which made the jupyter notebooks partially useless. The instructions videos were very fast.

The exercises on the Watson cloud were too complicated to set up, I guess that could have been solved quite easy via a Jupiter notebook. Everything elase was great.

Good introduction to Python. But it would be better if it demonstrated the use of API's in a practical way (Like, what can one do with the results he/she gets).

Course content is good, however the Watson Studio partsare dominated by the platform complexity instead of the content and the guides/screenshots are outdated.

Some good content and good explanations in the videos, but the final project is really unclear and focuses more about using IBM software than coding in Python.

For this course, I think it is good in general, because it covers some fundamentals regarding python, however, it needs more practice questions in my opinion.

It's more a course about development, data manipulation and a bit of webscrapping/API. If you already some notion in data science, you will not learn a lot

It would have been beneficial to be learn more about building a dashboard visualization. That part of the quiz/test that I had trouble with for some reason.

You could have made this course longer, for example separate week for pandas and numpy, and web scrapping

Also, there should have been a week for matplotlib.
