Carrie's enthusiam for R was contagious. She provides clear and easy to understand explanations, and she is pleasant to listen to. It was easy to follow up. I am myself an R enthusiast now. Thank you!

Excellent material (videos, hands-on activities, and readings). However, the quiz questions are not consistent. The best quiz questions actually test your ability to write R code; the worst just evaluate if the student can parrot phrases.

The instructor needs to work on being able to prepare us for what she will be doing. At times, she didnt provide clarity on the things she was doing. For example, she would talk about x and y axis in ggplot without first introducing them.

This course was a nice introduction to R, and covered a lot of information if you are just starting on this journey to becoming a data analyst. You will have to continue with additional studies and practice to be completely comfortable.

I did not feel this lesson was written as well as previous lessons. I feel like large chunks were left out and I will need to fill in the gaps on my own. I feel like several important aspects were alluded to but not actually taught.

R is good but a bit complicated and has a high learning curve for people with no programming background. I think it would be better it replace this with Google sheets and teach how to create dashboards and do data analytics with it

The instructor is decent and taught ggplot especially well but I found the content lacking. Felt bloated like most of the other Google courses and thought it could have more practical questions in hands-on activities.

While I did learn I don’t feel it prepared me well enough and they separated everything so much and then expect you to know and remember how to put everything you did together by yourself

I felt like the information could have been explained more clearly. Also, it would have been helpful to have more illustrations to explain the topic or concept that was discussed.

Algunos procesos de las tareas sobre el Software R estaban incompletos o desactualizados. He tenido que recurrir a Youtube para poder solucionarlos y seguir con mi aprendizaje.

I personally got problems with the quizzes, in the part of R programming, because despite I put the correct code that the course gives you as feedback. It still doesn't worked.

This course covers a lot of material, especially for people who are not used to using R. I wish the instructor was a little more descriptive with the explanations.

I found this course confusing. Some of the videos seemed to be out of order. It would have been beneficial to place the videos before the hands on activities.

I encountered many issues within RStudio. I tried finding solutions online but it wasn't helpful. I contacted coursera multiple times but never got an answer.

It would have been better if python was chosen instead of R as R is lil complex to understand and most jobs are asking for python.

Very poor intro into programming comparing to specialised courses. But a lot of links allows us to learn on your own.

for the most part it was great, but towards the end there was some serious issues: a broken video and quiz.

It was good, but not sure if suitable for people who have not dealt with R at all.

Could have been more complex examples and deeper analysis with visualizations.
