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!

I was not a fan of this instruction on this course topic compared to the other topics. I found it very difficult to follow along and could have used more hands on instruction on the basics instead of jumping around to other topics.

Wery small amount of tasks. The task which are given are very simple like copy code from here and paste here. Some important analytics concepts like standard deviation or mean are not explained properly

This course needs work. There's missing files, the video often moves too fast, functions and syntax in lines of code without explanation as to what their significance is or when they should be used

I feel the excercises are too easy for you to really get the knowledge to stick. I would prefer ot have coding assigments more similar to the questions from they have for the course wrap up.

I think this should be optional. If I wanted to learn a programming language, I would have sought it out separately. Sometimes the pace was too fast with not enough context.

It was a very hard and complicated course with lots of errors but by God's grace, I made it. I need to exercise and learn more about R Programming.

Thank you

Why have I been approved for financial aid from Coursera, but now I need to upgrade and submit for the model challenge? Please explain this issue.

La traducción es deficiente, las respuestas de funciones u otras se tradujeron y quedaron mal hechas y lleva a confusión para dar respuestas,.

Hits the ground running with R. Running very fast. Almost seemed to be skipping important steps, and/or not spending enough time on mechanics

R programming is one of the most complicated platform in data analytics ever. Sharp mind and focus is required for practicing tools in it.

Overall, the content wasn't new to me so I didn't complete most exercises or watch videos. It was disappointing.

This is NOT Google's fault. But the forum blew up because of Coursera's decision to stagger start times for the course. I am trying to fast track this, and the fact that I have to wait now is unbelievable. There was NO warning, no mention that this would happen - it was just imposed on us arbitrarily.

Why this is a bad policy is because most don't complete purely self directed courses. Completion of these courses is largely determined by a participants' levels of motivation. Their motivation fluctuates across time.

By restricting when people can progress, this makes it harder for the motivated to complete the course. Sometimes, you get "in the zone" and are able to learn the material quickly thanks to Google's excellent course content. But, this is contingent on the motivated being able to take on more work during periods of high motivation. Blocking access to classes and forcing people to wait for an arbitrary time only serves to frustrate people and hamper the motivated.

Sorry Google, this class is great but this BS policy is horrible!

I thought this course was pretty good in the beginning. However, turns out the cloud based platform they teach you on has a time limit. So, after starting my capstone project using R, I was cut off from using it. I tried to move to the desktop version of R and it is nothing like the cloud based platform. I feel like I learned nothing and would not be able to tell an employer that I know how to use R.

I feel like all the other courses in this program were easy to follow and learn, however this course just jumped right into R and I found it extremely hard to understand.

the tutor cannot organize the content in a very logical way. it's not a good course for r programming in a cohesive series, i have to say, it's the worst.
