Learner Reviews & Feedback for Operations Analytics by University of Pennsylvania

The main topics are well explained and the course matter will be useful in my job. But the videos duration is too long, and too much time is lost on explaining how to use Excel (should be treated apart).

This was useful, but I didn't got the answer for my question why do we simulate negative demand? The big problem of these courses is we don't have real feedback, we can't ask teacher anything.

A beginner's course with substantial scope. The concepts were simple and yet, powerful. Highly recommended for the ones seeking a basic understanding of Operations analytics.

I liked the concepts to apply for operations, and different ways to consider probability. Found the course to be a little too Excel heavy.

Had expected this course to be more detailed but turned out to be very basic especially in the beginning. Week 4 was interesting though.

Too much math and Excel, not enough 'why' (for example, why we choose a certain model, how to select important variables for input)

a bit too long examples; i'd prefer more use cases that one might excercise on his own (but it's my personal preference)

Interesting material but not that difficult. Would have liked the opportunity to do more modeling. Good introduction.

The videos are very long to follow through, and I'm having troubles keeping my concentration span with the instructor

Week 1 could have been better in terms of presentation. Also the content could have been a bit more comprehensive.

Learned the basics of operations analytics. It was my first experience to use soler and analytic tools in Excel.

Nice course overall, though I thought the quizzes were exceedingly simple. Could have been more testing.

More content sharing would have helped and more practical and realistic problems to be placed

Good for super-beginners, but not useful for anyone with some knowledge of simulations

The videos are long, thus rather boring. Yet, the contents are useful and interesting

Too easy quizzes, more real-life cases shall be included, that too in detail.

Quiz questions can be better structured and difficulty can also be increased.

I would like to be more challenging and more advanced math and statistics

Very effective, very practical but the videos can be a little long.

Videos are way too long is not motivating me to complete the course

overall useful but can deep dive into more complicated examples

It would have been better with more examples and exercises.

Week 1 lectures could be re-organized/edited for clarity.

it has very complex example and need for explanation.

Exams are very easy. Should be difficult.
