This course is meant to be an introduction to Java as a second language, if you are familiar with any computer programming language. It could be shell scripting, knowledge of older Java versions, JavaScript, etc. This course will allow you to quickly pick up the Java programming language. You will learn Java Object Orientation, and see the parallels with other programming paradigms.
This is course 1 of a 3 course Specialization titled Java as a Second Language. It assumes that you know some programming and want to transfer that knowledge into learning Java. Lab exercises will be performed using your system and Java installation. The instructor will guide you through setting up and configuring your environment and working through the labs. Java can be installed on just about any type of computer, but the instructor will demonstrate the installation on a Windows system.

I do not think that the topics cover on this first part of the course is the ideal. I would prefer to start to translate the basics as the printf, scanf, if statments, switch, do, while, etc. And then add the specifict stuff java related and the non as basic topics.
nice history and introduction for beginners
Not sure how much consideration the course actually take to you having knowledge in other languages
if the video of labs done by teacher would have been provided it would have been of great help.
So so
Assuming that this is a course for someone who wants to learn Java as a second programming language, the basics are far too exhaustive. If you already know classes and functions from another programming language, the explanations and labs are too simple and kind of annoying!
