Good intro to Bayesian Statistics. Covers the basic concepts. Workload is reasonable and quizzes/exercises are helpful. Could include more exercises and additional backgroung/future reading materials.

An excellent course with some good hands on exercises in both R and excel. Not for the faint of heart mathematically speaking, assumes a competent understanding of statistics and probability going in

Good course about bayesian! I finally understand the relationship between frequentist idea and Bayesian approach and Beta gamma distributions

This was a were educational course. I had trouble understanding R programming but with this topic, most of the programs became more clear to me.

I loved everything about this course. It reminded me of my time in school. Papers and pencils. I look forward to attending the follow up course.

As a computer science student, I feel Bayesian approach is much more intuitive and more computationally friendly than the frequentist paradigm.

Very good course. Concepts are very well explained, and quizzes are really helpful to apply and further
understand the explanations provided.

Thanks, Coursera. This is a good course. It would be helpful if we get any proper class notes on Jeffrey's prior and Multivariate regression.

Great course with a lot of simple, but illustrative exercises. It may be useful to have some basic prior knowledge of econometrics/statistics

Great introductory course. It was challenging but doable for someone who has not take college level mathematics or statistics in a few years.

Invaluable. Excellent quizzes. A few terms could have been better defined, and a few more examples wouldn't hurt, but overall excellent.

Awesome course that helped me overcome the Bayesian statistics way of thinking hurdle. Now, I want to go on and learn MCMC, Metropolis !

The course is generally great. Nonetheless, it is not recommended for those without a statistical background and knowledge of calculus.

Very good course. Prof. Lee explains each concept well. Bayesian Stats makes more sense to me now than before!!
Thanks so much Prof. Lee

A very good course. Even better if you continue with the 2nd course that teaches about how to implement Bayesian data analysis in JAGS
