Very good course. Concrete, practical and well thought out. Fascinating subject matter. Amazing to have virtual access through this platform to Silicon Valley's cutting edge thinking!

I'm not impressed. The whole course is built like a cheesy recruiting campaign. Through the whole journey, I felt like they were trying not to teach me, but to hook me. By the time I got through "oh this is so very cool" shaped in hundreds of form, I was already tired. The actual informational part is minimal. And all those "come joins us", "join the retreat" finished it for me.

Too much reading an not enough video tuturials. If I wanted to read I would have gotten a book. It did not feel virtual enough for me. The content felt like it was the same thing repeated in many of the articles we had to read. This easily could have been covered in a one hour video instead of a full day plus class.

If you just take 1 course in the whole specialization, then Coursera keeps on charging you monthly for the "subscription" without being clear about the terms.
I would've taken more courses with this platform, but this was clear and plain fraud. I'm erasing my account and my employees'. It's amazing how abusive companies turn when they're having high demand for their products.
Let me use my Futures Thinking skills: I see this platform as the Netscape of browsers. Your employees will leave and create better, hopefully more ethical, online learning companies.

A lot of unnecessary information, the introductory speech is very long.
