Great course, I like the way it talks about different agile methodologies and non-agile methodologies. Useful to know where the discipline has come from and when some approaches are still applicable.

I had read about the different agiles methodologies out there but It was until I took this course that I could "digest" them and internalize how to chose the right one for me and how to apply them.

This is a survey course of software development models and as that it is fine. Did expect more depth though.
