I really liked the presentation and the slides, they were really clear and concise. The subjects are quite useful for a beginner as well as for more experienced people. I have only two remarks: firstly, the French presentation seemed to be random and messy so it was disturbing personally, although I like the idea of teaching concepts in both languages; secondly, the subtitles were not useful at all for any of the two professors speaking in English. In particular for the French professor, when some words were pronounced with a strong accent the subtitles did not have sens.

Program demystifies the evolving world of CIOs in a typical global corporation.
Coverage being introductory familiarizes participants nicely through some of the nuances & emerging trends.
When I took the course participant numbers was fewer, so feedback was quite delayed. So one should plan to be patient to get their peer reviews.
Based on peer reviews i sensed much variations in their expectations.
Few sections are in French with Subtitles.
Subtitle quality requires audit/review.

Topic is interesting (for me). I could follow the common thread. The spoken English wasn't always easy to understand - especially of lectures held completely in french. There I could only read and copy the subtitles - sort of the worst way to get a lecture for me.

The completion of the course is not progress well. Most of the reviews taking time and many times i have lost track of the progress due to review delays.
Content of the course and the industry experience it brings are really worth following this course.

The course was very good. It would have been better to have only English-speaking presenters in the videos. With the French audio I had to totally focus on reading the subtitles.

Nice course. Some macro ideias in several areas, but pretty consistent with the objective.

The course in general provides high-level view on some key CIO challenges. Could be a good starting point for IT colleagues in their CIO journey. However, there are two topics that definitely needs to be taken into account by the new learners BEFORE enrolling:
- Course is given by 3 instructors: 1 English speaker, 1 French-English speaker (English with full French accent), 1 French-only speaker (no English at all). The text provided to support the course is probably from some automated voice-to-text converters and/or translator web sites: there are full of errors, non-meaningful statements, etc which mean no sense to a reader when he/she can not understand what the instructor said.
- Course requires some assessments to be submitted by attendees which need to be reviewed by other course attendants. This is not a very active course; therefore generally the due time passes before you get sufficient reviews from attendees. Then you need to reset due times again, post in forums begging for user reviews, etc. I understand the idea of community assessment; however, this topic needs to be addressed before sold to new learners.

Parts of this course are in french with no written english translation. Even for the parts that are spoken in english, the written translation - which seems to be done by a robot - misunderstands many words, some of which are translated into hilarious and just plain wrong english words.
I put a lot of effort into the peer review submissions as well as reviews and from what I can see the grading was sometimes done based on only one or two peer reviews. I was of the impression that at least 6 reviews would be needed in order to ensure a good quality peer grading.
Also, while I was trying to meet my goal of 6 peer reviews for week Nr. 7, I was presented with submissions from 2016 and 2017 that I had to grade. I can't believe that anyone is still waiting for a peer review since 2016 ?

I was disappointed because the name is misleading. The course provides a good introduction & overview of the responsibilities of the CTO, but has very little specifically digital content. It deals with two-speed IT in a single short lecture, so of course the treatment is superficial. It is easy to find more in-depth material freely available, on the McKinsey website for example.

The course content is quite good, though it could have been deeper in some areas.
But its peer review system is not working well, if at all.

Good content, but the course setting does (at least for me) not allow learn the content long term due to missing reading material.

My expectation from the course was huge as many people told me coursera classes are great etc. However I found this course is a huge let down for me. The content was too primitive and generic, more suitable for one with non IT background. The content is not deep and rich. Apart from that, some of the videos are in non-english voice. Atleast those should have an english voice over than having just a sub titles. Some of the videos are mere waste of time and useless. I am not going to recommend this course atleast to any of my colleague. I hope the other courses are better. Some other courses seems interesting, but now I am doubtful to take those. Thinking of other options.

This course does not say anything about digitization which is the core subject of the digital wave.
