Learner Reviews & Feedback for Executive Data Science Capstone by Johns Hopkins University
About the Course
courses to apply what they've learned to a real-world scenario developed in collaboration with Zillow, a data-driven online real estate and rental
marketplace, and DataCamp, a web-based platform for data science programming. Your task will be to lead a virtual data science team and
make key decisions along the way to demonstrate that you have what it takes to shepherd a complex analysis project from start to finish. For
the final project, you will prepare and submit a presentation, which will be evaluated and graded by your fellow capstone part...

Wow! This is the most fun and creative Capstone I have ever done! I only wish it was longer 😊. I really appreciate the work/effort put into this and the entire Specialization. Awesome job guys!! 🎉

The Executive Data Science Capstone was so much fun, while I was doing it I was really feeling like I am a data manager and managing the data science team in real life. So interesting it was.

Fun. Challenging with gamification.
Maybe it's a little short.
I was expecting to put in a lot of work in this capstone maybe because I was expecting a more thorough, longer analysis challenge.
So a recommendation is:
In the same style, create more weeks where the challenges will increase.

positives points : Really interesting and good role-play based, nicely design
Negatives points " a bit short, not enough depth, I expected much more with this practical use case
technical point : the video are super slow to buffer (high speed fiber connection, from Hong Kong)

The videos and the interactive testing process was enjoyable but I thought that it was a little too easy and too short to measure the full extent of the knowledge acquired through the previous 4 courses. It should have been more elaborate and rigorous.

I find the method really cool, to simulate the real-life. It could have been a bit more difficult to really test my new acquired skills.
Nevertheless I enjoyed the set up and full training on Data Science for Executives
thanks for hosting!

Very poorly constructed with links in the final exam that didn't work so I couldn't finish the exam. Then I was graded after only finishing 4/5 of the exam. I managed to get everything straightened out but it took some effort.

A lot of this could be solved by intuition, and I would have expected this to be harder and really put the skills to the test. On the other hand, the format was fun and innovative.

Well made simulation of leading a data science team at Zillow. Just wished we get better value for money as the whole course can be done in just 1 hour!

Too short, too easy, and did not result in a project that I can show potential employers.
