It is very practical, and loved the Augur, Grid+, and Escrow which is not usually mentioned in any other blockchain courses

The content for IPFS hashgraph is a bittooadvanced. for non-cs major, but the final project is easy to follow and enabled me to understand IPFS better than just wathingthe videos.

Respected teaching professor Bina Ramamurthy madam is a very good instructor. Her English accent way of delivering speech is very clear.This course is perfect for making a very good foundation on decentralized technology. I will be very thankful to her and Coursera and my university AIUB for sponsoring my online education.

[ I do have a complain. During the final assignment I saw that IPFS web UI was updated. But the assignment was designed according to the old structure of IPFS. As a result I was facing some problems. Then I checked the Discussion Forums and saw many students were asking for the same problem. But no one is replying the solutions.]

Thank You.

Great foundational course! This course offers solid theoretical knowledge and is a good introduction to blockchain concepts. However, it would benefit from more hands-on, practical exercises. Some parts feel a bit outdated, so I recommend complementing it with external practice. For a more complete learning experience, I highly suggest watching Patrick Collins' free course on YouTube. If you're new to blockchain, just the first two hours of his course will help you understand the key concepts covered here more clearly. Together, both resources make a strong combination.
