Great course, simple and easy to learn, small labs help me in using GitHub and git commands, glossary and other material was also very helpful
AP
There should be more information on the final project. I was a bit confused if it was talking about writing in CLI or Github.
KT
Useful start to GitHub. Practice modules are the most helpful, but videos are paced too quickly, do not give time to take notes.
SM
"It is a top quality course. Keep going, we need this type of course to improve our studies. Excellent. Thank you!!" "Well done. Good course.

Great and informative course about Git and GitHub. Great tool for beginners and for those who have already used GitHub, but need a refresher.
FM
A very complete and dynamic course that develops learning how to operate GitHub, its history and the benefits for the community.
AB
The option 1 of submitting the final project is worst.. Internet connectivity is goos at my end still it is not able to submit that. Tried multiple times. but no success.
FK
Good course.. This course teaches you with simple explanation but you'll get many beneficial insights in it. Thanks IBM, Thanks Coursera.
DK
It's a very good course. Git and GitHub are explained well, however the concepts could be simplified for extreme beginners.
RF
Good practice for the basic commands. One or two bits are implied like checking out to the proper branch before committing.
MC
Useful and easy to learn if you pay attention. I also love step by step approach and practice project first, doing it on my own later for grade was much easier.
SR
This course does a great job of teaching Git fundamentals. Though I already knew most of it, it would have been helpful to have this course earlier in my career!
