    About the Course

    Welcome to Introduction to Analytic Thinking, Data Science, and Data Mining. In this course, we will begin with an exploration of the field and
    profession of data science with a focus on the skills and ethical considerations required when working with data. We will review the types of
    business problems data science can solve and discuss the application of the CRISP-DM process to data mining efforts. A brief overview of
    Descriptive, Predictive, and Prescriptive Analytics will be provided, and we will conclude the course with an exploratory activity to learn more
    about the tools and resources you might find in a data science toolkit.

    There were readings; no lectures. The course had little to do with its title. I had hoped for a lot more. I see no reason to continue w ith this specialization. Others have put a lot more effort into teaching these topics. This course was a waste of my time. I'd give it less than one star if that were an option.

    The course contains a collection of articles that can be found on the internet. Some of it is already outdated. There was a test in here with question on the topic of Decision Trees. However, Decision Trees were not explained. SO i had to go to wikipedia to learn about Decision Trees and then answered the questions.

    There was not a proper flow in the reading. I found the topics a bit randomly picked.

    I consider this course a must for one's journey into Data Science. The videos are short and to the point to serve the purpose of the course.

    Test questions at 2 module are based on information, which is not provided at module information, only additional source. But there is no active link to that as well. In case if info would be included into course, it would make more sense to make a test based on that info.
