Everything is very well explained. Having the transcripts to the videos helps since I like to read and review the material after watching the video. The quizzes focus on important points and the organization builds on each skilled learned.

Even though I would rate myself an intermediate user of computers and general IT knowledge, this course made understanding the points that I didn't fully grasp, easily understandable! Can't wait for the next course I take through Coursera!

I really enjoyed the various instructors and all their individual perspectives. I also appreciated all of the 'hands-on' practice opportunities using quicklabs. That was the one part that was a bit scary for me but ended up being just fine.

Great Beginner Course!

Lots of information in easily digestible segment. Videos with Subtitles really made it easy to follow along with ideas and concepts. Being able to click a section and have the presenter read it over again was awesome.

Muy buen curso que te enseña las bases para ser un técnico, muy bien explicado incluso para personas que no tienen ningún conocimiento en el área y para las personas que si sirve para reforzar conocimientos e incluso aprender cosas extras.

This course if exceptional for the beginner. It provided information that, as a user, I was not aware was behind the scenes while using computers on a daily basis. It provides a solid foundation to build on for becoming an IT technician.

Very helpful course whether you start as a total newbie in this field or just want to review the material for your job. Got to learn many things at your own pace and am now looking at a computer or parts of the computer in a different way.
