This is a great course! Videos are very explanatory and fast and the activities are interesting. I only missed a few examples before developing the projects. I really enjoyed the interaction with other students, in the form of correction of activities - this add a lot! the only problem is the delay in the correction of the activities, losing the term sometimes.

Great course to have an overview / a refresh of what Lean Software Development means. However some references (videos) are from more than 5 years ago. Although, Lean concepts havent changed, it would be great to have more recent references.

the "classifications" in the tests were a little subjective, in my opinion, it may be more effective to have examples and quizzes to periodically during the training modules to reinforce the classifications.

Good, though there were some typos in captioning. And more examples would be nice too.
