A good introduction with constant updates and industry voices. INSEAD is the academic partner, main focus of the presentes is to promote their book and show the blockchain as the one thing the world shouldn't be without. Heavy on - good - additional reading should make up for light use of visualization.

Good introduction, however a lot of overlap with the Introduction to blockchain for financial services module, feels like watching same videos. Perhaps if Coursera could provide recognition for either of the courses done, so as to not duplicate efforts

Good introduction and clear explanations. Overall it needs further interaction and potentially actual collaboration rather than just looking at videos and reading corresponding literature

You have a wide overview about what blockchain is, but is too much theory instead of applying it in the real world

I feel the course is too high level. I would have expected more in-depth explanation of Blockchain

great concise course. But a bit basic and little on use cases and link with entrepreneurship

good informative course .it helped be a lot to gain good knowledge

The course is good but should be updated, especially the videos

If you think you can learn from someone reading a dense transcript word for word from a massive collection of documentation-like prose, then this course is for you! It's like having someone read aloud from a math or physics book, and by the end of it thinking the students are going to absorb each word uttered from the reader's mouth with nothing written on the board, no demonstrations, no images, nothing of that sort. Oh, and they introduce a plethora of useless extraneous information (like various organizations associated with certain protocols, e.g. Corda) (this is why it seems like they are just reading documentation about the topic, rather than a thoughtfully planned and rehearsed lesson plan). How thick do these "instructors" have to be to think this is an effective way for people to learn? It's really all too common on Coursera: take any non-expert you want on any topic, print out a transcript on that dense topic which you may know nothing about, then sit in front of a camera and read that transcript verbatim (and don't forget to smile every now and then!), then collect cash from the poor chumps that thought they were going to get quality educational material to learn about said topic. Cha-ching $$!

The structure, and the content were organized very well and easy to follow, however the content itself has to be updated as many references are outdated to 2014-2018 whereas the resources, technology and governace have changed dramatically since then. Most articles are old and irrelevant. Kind of like a history class more than an updated course on BC technology. The istuation of energy consumption is taken from 2015 , while the hashing rate has changed and many new chains were added.

already had some knowledge in this area, for a begginner stand point the content is a bit advanced.. and less videos and more reading material is not what most of students prefer...

Finishing the programming assignment on a mac is a nightmare.

no slides or visualisation of the note at all. the videos are all about a co-founder of a research institute is talking about the blockchain, which causes difficult to learn efficiently

1. Broken links 2. How blockchain works deeper? 5 weeks about obvious info

I want to unenroll

way behind
