This was my favorite course by far! The information was fascinating, and I learned so much! This course was a little bit less "Common Sense" than other courses to me. It's pretty dense in a good way.

I would give this a 5 but there are some items that are outdated and I believe some of the quizzes that had multiple choice answer could better serve the students if they were a written answer.

Really good course when you have worked previously with Waterfall projects. It is a good way to start to understand the new concepts of Agile methodology but also terms and definitions within Agile.

Very useful course. Content is really good. One suggestion is if one passes the final challenge of the module the answers for incorrect questions may be given there instead of providing the link.

初心者にも学びやすく、飽きさせない内容でした。VideoのTranscriptが非常に役に立ちました。Noteを取れるのも良かったですし、何度でもTranscriptから聴き直せるのが便利でした。インターフェイスも見やすく、操作しやすかったです。実際の仕事でAgileのTerminologyは聞くのですが、それが何を意味するのかが不明だったのが、このコースをとったお陰でよくわかるようになりました。

T​his course is great for anyone who want to explore about Agile project management. If you had knowledge of traditional project management like waterfall before, it would be very visible and helpful.
