I thought this course introduced the topic of data science very well. I think I have a much better idea how to describe data science and common terms associated with the field (like machine learning).

Very learning experience, I am a beginner in DS, but the instructors in this course simplified the contents that made me I could easily understand, tools and materials were very helpful to start with.

It is just the beginning of a long journey to become a data scientist.
It is very brief and to the point.

Okay if you are completely new to the area, but doesn't add much new if you have some awareness already.

A bit simple and repetitive. It works as an introduction, but it won't add any value to your knowledge.

It is a good introduction to Data Science, but in my opinion did not have to be an individual course.

This is a very basic introduction, but as it is billed for beginners, that should not be a surprise.

There was only theoretical knowledge. There should be more about the implementation of data science.

Fairly redundant while also being informative. It's mostly worth the few hours it takes to complete.

I think it would be better if the content is well-organised. Sometimes there exists repeat content.

This course merely gives an introduction for the Data Science but not teaching any practical skills

Good motivational course, but not that much proper scientific / analytical / quantitative content.

Nothing that I could've just learned from reading a Wikipedia page on Data Science was introduced.

The content is good but the navigation of the website is not very good and is not very intuitive.

I think the sir is giving half knowledge about the topic. Like some more explanation is required.

Kind of a fluff class but good if you are looking for something to explain the absolute basics

The course is too basic. And it has a lot of opinions from a lot of people about Data Science.

That's a good overview about what is Data Science and what we understand about Data Scientist.

I think this course spends too much time on selling the field of data science to the learner.

A little bit of redundant content. Very basic overview no need to spend so much time on it :)
By Sujeet J

Gives the overview of Data Science and the role of Data Scientist. More of a theory though.

It would be good if we have more of Practical things rather than just the videos and theory

Pretty high level / conceptual. Looking to get into more of the details in the next course.
