"R Programming" forces you to dive in deep.
These skills serve as a strong basis for the rest of the data science specialization.
Material is in depth, but presented clearly. Highly recommended!

Really interesting course. The interactive coding sessions with swirl are especially useful. Would be great, if you provided sample solutions for the programming assignments, in particular for week 4.

There seem to be a big gap on what was taught and was was given in the quizes. Overall it was okay.

Assignments are far more challenging than they should be. Course content is good introductory to R.

Could do a better job of teaching more of the fundamentals involved in the Programming Assignments.

The gap between teachings and assignment is quite large. This is definitely not beginner-friendly.

The pace of talking of some of the intutor is too fast, if slow down a little bit, will be better.

there is a wide gap between the videos, practice assignments and completing the required projects.

It was very difficult for me to follow the exercises, since I don't have a programming background.

Some good information, and a good course platform, but I didn't feel all the parts fit together.

Way too wide a gulf between the material in lectures and practice exercises and the evaluations.

The first course is better - provide students an alternative learning method aside from videos.

The homework is more harder than what I learned. The errors in speaking made me uncomfortable.

Very large gap between instructional material and programming assignments; perhaps too large.

Assignments are not good representations of course materials. The Instructor speaks too fast.

compared to the assignment, the course should have used better examples during the lectures.

It's ok... they get a bit into some R stuff that seems archaic once you use the tidyverse...

I found a several of the assignments did not relate to the material covered in the lectures.

It is not a beginner friendly course. Learn R from somewhere else and then take this course.

It is a huge step from the material to the assignments, more support on assignments needed.

To many text on the slides. Video resolution is not adopted for smartphone (Asus zenfone 5)

Course was good but assignment was too hard and there's no explanation of the assignments.

The assignments are a little not related or more complex than what are there in the videos

the homework in this course is too easy to make me feel that I have made a great progress.
