I withdrew from this course because it was so poorly constructed. It looks like the videos may have been edited down from longer lectures by an AI editor using an outline, so the videos are brief, choppy, and disjointed. Quizzes include questions that are not covered in either the videos or in the reference text. Some questions appear to be AI-generated nonsense with no correct answer. When you get an answer wrong on a quiz, there is no explanation to help you improve your understanding, and the Coursera AI assistant is not always able to explain either. (Some answers provided by the AI assistant also failed on the quiz.) Your exercise work is evaluated only by other learners, who are also unable (or unwilling to take the time) to explain what you might have gotten wrong. And then the course wastes your time by asking you to grade work by other learners. So: for exercises it's the blind leading the blind; for videos and quizzes the blind are being led by literalist robots who occasionally hallucinate. This course is not worth your time.

I started the course as I wanted to learn more about the Six Sigma principles and practical use of them at work. I am a project manager, so the course was supposed to help me to improve my knowledge. The course itself is interesting, but I found it a bit old style, reminding me of those times when the first online courses were created. The slides are full of texts in different formats, some even show errors, the lecturers are filmed in low quality, and the most upsetting thing - all mention some Six Sigma Yellow belt guide/notes, but you can not find them anywhere in the course files. Also, the part about statistics - well, I think this is more for data analysts, not project or team managers. Too heavy on statistics and data analysis for the course. I would replace all the slides, make them more nowadays style and improve the overall quality of the course. I started next course with Google on Agile - this is a good example of high quality education, I would recommend the authors of this course to have a look and learn from Google.

Hello, I’d like to report an issue with one of the slides in the Six Sigma Foundations and Principles course by Kennesaw State University. The slide discussing the roles of the Black Belt and Master Black Belt contains several errors not limited to but, including: “ste ground” instead of “set ground” “Blet” instead of “Belt” (appears twice) Multiple fragmented or incomplete sentences Since this course focuses on quality and process improvement, the presence of such errors in instructional material is especially concerning. I’m sharing this feedback in the spirit of continuous improvement and to support future learners. Thank you for reviewing this issue. Best regards, Kelly Boyer

*Disclaimer: I got to the second module of the first course and then quit*.Some videos have almost inaudible volume. Quizzes have feedback that depends on a textbook that isn't freely available, and the same feedback as pertaining to the course videos doesn't relate to the questions. Some videos are lousy, with spelling errors, and the voices of the teachers are real mood killers, sounding low and tired. I believe it is much better to look around for a good, widely used book and learn from there. This course is not something I'd recommend to any of my colleagues in the field of engineering, even if the instructors are PhDs in the topic.

It is a good course for background information on Six Sigma

The course suffers from misalignment between instruction and assessment, unclear or missing foundational explanations, and poor production quality—making it frustrating. Several exam questions reference material that is never taught or defined in the course, including Belbin team roles, Black Belt training expectations, and key Lean concepts. Core tools like histograms and Pareto charts are assigned without instruction, forcing learners to seek external resources despite being graded. This is compounded by ambiguous quiz questions, inconsistent audio quality, and distracting production issues, all of which undermine clarity, trust, and learning effectiveness.

Some of the videos have very low volume. As such, the automatic transcript function did not pick up the sound and therefore, did not create a transcript. FYI.

its a very good course to do to learn about quality work

Basic instructions and exercises in module 2 were good. Good start to learning six sigma, but has some minor flaws in study materials. Big problem is that there is a book requirement in this one which you cannot get through the course, and some of the test quiz are based on that book, and video materials don't really tell the answers. You can keep guessing the answers unlimited times, but that defeats the point of a test in my opinion. Also some of the videos have some low volume problems.

Audio in some videos is too low, the guy was making all sorts of slip-ups and mispronounced words, cannot believe they just left it like that instead of redoing it. I could always hear his gasping for air and opening his mouth which was annoying. Visually the presentations are sub-par and I haven't learned much. Where is the link to download mandatory book that needs to be followed with the course? Sheesh.

worst edited content, instructor is a reader of lines in the presentation - he is not an instructor- very bad. most quizes did not work, or took a long time to be graded. support was very passive and slow.

Inconsistent volume on the videos making it impossible to hear some - then there are some videos without notes. Horrible professionalism.

Waste of time. "Instructor" seems to be trying to speed run through videos. Quizzes do not reflect the material covered in the videos.

The content is riddled with errors and graded assessments ask questions that are not covered in the course content.

Este curso de Lean Six Sigma me pareció muy útil porque me ayudó a comprender cómo mejorar procesos, reducir errores y eliminar desperdicios dentro de una organización. Aprendí herramientas prácticas para identificar problemas, analizarlos y proponer soluciones efectivas. Me gustó que se enfocara tanto en la calidad como en la eficiencia, y que mostrara cómo pequeñas mejoras pueden tener un gran impacto. Sin duda, es un curso que recomendaría a cualquier persona interesada en optimizar su trabajo y aportar más valor.

The course was great as is the norm, but the volume of many of the videos varied greatly. On some the volume was so low that no matter how high I set my volume, I could barely hear and then the next video would practically blow out my eardrums. Better volume editing/control is suggested.

I have lernt lot regarding how to minimize the process ,improve productivity ,process control ,inventory control ,create better enviorment for work place

High Quality Course. Excellent Materials and professors. Very clear and interesting, they engage you and make the course very interesting and attractive.

Easy to understand instructors. Course materials were a good interaction. AI grading is not the best for process mapping.

Very useful in day to day work to understand the process , identifying the problems using check sheets.
