I will highly recommend this course to anyone who is starting his/her web developer career and has already gone through the html introductory course . Then they should definitely choose this course and pursue it to the end . And then go through flexbox , grid and then learn the bootstrap framework . And finally then they will be ready to take the next course of the specialization Interactivity with JavaScript and continue learning.This is a great pathway for being a web developer.

A well-structured course that has finally broken the morbid fear of CSS that has haunted me for the last 15 years! This builds very nicely on the work done in Intro to HTML5 from the same instructor. It doesn't, of course, teach every possible option in CSS3--it would need to be a year long and a lot less interesting to do that--but it does give some tolls which are immediately useful.

I welcome the emphasis on standards compliance and accessibility which is all too often ignored.

I took this course after HTML5 with the same instructor and now feel prepared to advance creative projects that I've been wanting to do for some time. The Code Together activities really help as do the optional resources. I'm a global-to-local thinker and a kinesthetic learner, so the integration of video overviews with activities that provide the opportunity for deeper dives and research really work for me. I plan to stick with Dr. van Lent for more courses in the series!

I enrolled in this course after completing the html5 course. At the culmination of the CSS3 project, I feel ways more confident in my web development skills, although I am a far ways off being a web designer. The pace of the course is excellent, and the quizzes and projects allowed me to put in practice the theory I learned about. I also love how the professor discusses the material and organised this course.

I truly recommend this course to anyone at the beginner level.

It was perfect, but there are some new features available now, Teacher should update the course videos.

Great course for beginner. My advice to students starting the course is to submit the peer-review assignments early as the grading process takes awhile sometimes.

I loved this course, but I do not approve of peer graded assignments and there were a lot in this course. Also, some of the material on the test wasn't explained in class and depended a lot on personal research. I didn't like this because CSS and HTML codes require detail explanation most of the time, and most of the time the tags found online are not the same used in class.

Unless you are really desperate to take a course on CSS, take one elsewhere. A course on CSS, which should be totally hands-on, is spent mostly on talking--with the instructor describing what the effects are going to be. Why can't we see the code in action?

There are multiple errors in the course, including typos and downright wrong information (such as confusing "active" with "hover"), which have not been corrected, even though students have pointed them out as far back as 9 months ago as of writing.

If you are here because you thought Dr. Chuck has a role in the course, forget it. It's the equivalent of a click bait commercial.

Has not been updated since 2015-2016 and the waiting around for "Peer Reviews" is just plain silly. You pass the course and then site around for days to even get stuff graded is rediculious. Discussion boards are usless, it's just full of people begginfg to get their assigments reviwed by other peers.

While the teaching material was understandable and well-structured at the time of creation, it is now outdated, full of corrections and mistakes, and accomplished with poor commitment!

Outdated stuff. Coursera is still making money from this course, confusing more and more learners with outdated information. This is a crime!

Very broad instruction but very picky quizzes. Spent more time frustrated with trick questions on quizzes than actually learning something.

A bit dated in 2021 but a really great course nonetheless! It's excellent for understanding the basics of css and how certain things use to be done in the past, but just keep in mind that CSS has come a long way since the introduction of this course and there more modern approches to many of the early CSS layout problems.

It was a brilliant course. It covered a lot of the basic things that we miss while learning on our own. Plus the final assignment was also good. And I really felt the need of accessibility in designing web pages.

This course is a recommendable for all beginners who are interested in designing and styling their web pages. The whole course is interesting and challenging at the end of the course and I enjoyed it.

Clear instructions. I also love the workflow and its assignment design: working on the same website and keep building on it with the new things we learned.

It's a really good course but there is a lot of inconsistencies. The instructor will say one thing in the video description, then the homework description will say another and then when we do the peer grading, the selections you are giving to grade your peers on is missing things that were in both the video and/or written description. It is very confusing. Is there a teacher that even grades our work at all?? With that aside though you do learn a lot and for $46/month I guess it is better than nothing considering code camps are upwards of $15,000.00.

great course until you get to the last 2 weeks of the class, bause they start giving you assignments you wouldnt be noramlly able to make at least with the course materials. i wish theyd be more in depth about more than just a few concepts, but overall its ok

It was great, until I had to submit my final project that I spent hours on to make sure I got all the requirements and then got 0's for everything when I submitted it for review.

Greetings,

I have finally completed the course successfully. I just have few points that I think should be looked into. First one, is the length of the course. I think it should be longer, and deeper. the second think concerns the assignments, you will work throughout the course on the same assignment each week, just making few changes every week. (think it's annoying and there should be diversity). The assignment are also easy and anyone with basic knowledge of CSS could do it without the need for taking this course. Lastly, I found that this course focuses more on accessibility in each category, I acknowledge that it is a major issue, but it could've been discussed in one long video at the end of the course. Also it's too easy. I don't think I learned that much to be honest.

Great course, the grading is not being tracked or checked by instructors as someone leaves false grading because they had submitted a really bad css file which I have to grade according to the questions being asked, but because I grade him he graded on purpose everything 0 even when I have submitted proper work. So the course is good but grading is disappointing as you felt let down by bad quality grading which does not give you enough motivation to continue :-(

Extremely useful course, I learned a lot so far! The lovely instructor is very knowledgeable and has clearly a long teaching experience, she always makes sure that the pace is right, examples are plenty and opportunities to practice what you just learned are given at every step. Thanks a million to Coursera and to the wonderful instructor; I will look for everything else she teaches and make sure to follow and learn from her!

Really good basic course. Gave it 5 stars as it was clearly defined as a begginers course. The content is provided through really quick sessions/videos but at the same time provides links, lectures and additional material for those who want to have a deeper understanding. The required exercises are simple and easy to complete, so in case you want to really master the coding, you'll have to practice a lot by yourself.

This is the second course I have taken in the Specialization Course. Colleen teaches the course's contents in a way every body can understand. I was entirely new to the web design space, but after taken the Introduction to HTML5 and Introduction to CSS3 courses, I can now design a web page to have a good look and feel. My plan is to take the next course so that I can add some interactivity to a web page via JavaScript.

Really good course! I have been looking all over internet for a good course to learn web design, and this one is definitely the one I would recommend to everyone. The lecturer, Colleen van Lent, Ph.D., is great, she explains every little detail you need to know to work in CSS in a simple way. The assignments are perfect to practice what you have learned from previous lessons. Big thanks to Colleen van Lent, Ph.D!
