    Materials, slides and videos were not adequate and didn't provide enough details.

    There were many many typos and misleading syntax errors in lecture subtitles.

    Pretty well structured class, but quite expensive considering very limited lectures and assignments that are mostly "find your own challenge on the internet".

    Did not like the peer-graded dynamic, and also the lectures were pretty basic, I felt that it lacked depths in some subjects.

    Assignments are very unclear and too subjective. Have to look through the discussion forum to understand what is required.

    Some of the contents need to be up to date, there are functions descroved in the course that will be obsolete soon.

    Nice course but poor feedback. Grades are made by other alumns and some of them doesn't take it seriously.
