I have done a few computer science courses already and some of them were related to embedded systems. This is one of the best so far.
Higher level than a introductory course.
Highly advisable.

The course was excellent for me, as a beginner. Of course, the learning curve was steep and the assignments challenging, but I learnt a lot. Thanks you Coursera and University of Colorado, Boulder.

Course material delivery is of good quality. Peer reviews coding assignments are good to check if the assignments are implemented correctly. It would be good to have more assigments similar to the Final Assessment from this course, where the there are certain tests that must pass as it helps in establishing a validation criteria.

As an introduction, I think it's a good course, that focuses in generic subjects like GNU tools chain, GIT version control, building system using GNU make tool and some sort of C language implementation as well as how to deal with multiple platforms, targets using cross platform development and compile time switching.

Although it is in introductory course, it is in fact an intermediate course and the learning curve is really good. The instructor has done a good job. The only disadvantage is, there are no active moderators and you have to wait until your peers review your assessments which sometimes takes weeks together.

There seemed to be a few bugs in the final exam outline that I had to work around. Overall content is a helpful introduction to build systems and cross-compiling, with a high-level overview of embedded system architecture. I don't like the requirement to pay to submit assignments.

Material good and well presented, the programming assignements are fun but the quizzes are sometimes ambiguous and give you a 'hit or miss' feeling...Overall, I learnt a lot and I'm thankful for that.

Actually very well explained and goes straight to the point wich is very good. The pace might be a bit fast for students who does not have any experience with EmbSys.

The course is good in general esp the contents but the assignment part has loophole that people use just to get them passed without doing any work.

Great course. Not recommended to an absolute C beginner though. You need to do a decent amount of self-study in order to perform well.

Very informative course if you don't know about memory sections and Makefiles. But the last programming assignment is a bit uneasy.

Excellent course. Could do with more videos on Makefile and more interaction of the instructors and mentors in the forums.

If you want to learn about gcc, git and memory segment basic then this course is best for you.

Was very helpful, I can now understand the hardware level functions of an embedded system

Course content structure and refresher question in between video was very useful.

more detail into make writing syntax and examples would be very useful

Good material. Too much specialty jargon, difficult for non-CS majors.

It'd be even better if it's available with teacher's online help ;)

the course is good but the instructions are very limited. it is a huge personal investment to go through all the courses. the instructor doesn't give enough support to solve the assignment => module 3 quiz is crazy difficult for somebody who has no experience. I like to work hard but I feel frustrated, and I did not finish the last assignment : it is not clear what is the target and it seems a bit difficult without guidance... In addition, the whole things is not helping for the next course because the TI dev kit is not supported => so disappointed !!!!
