Really good course. I enjoyed the concise and informative lectures. The presenters are awesome. Special thanks for the accompanying reading materials and links to supplemental resources!

What I very appreciate from this course that we get feedback from your mistake so can learn from it. That's why it suitable for newbie or professional and programmer or non programmer.

This one has been a bit difficult to me and honestly I do not think lessons have been clear enough to execute all tasks required.
Assignments have also been a bit tricky some times, I had to re-submit a couple of them as requirements were not clear enough and when I was going to review other assignments, thanks to the questions to be "ticked" (in order to assign points) I have understood I was missing stuff.

Ambiguous assignments led to cumbersome completion. The peer grading got a little annoying as sometimes it took forever to get feedback and a lot of times feedback was minimal or the criteria for grading was vague and people took it WAY too seriously.

in general this specialization is too superficial. Examples are too unreal word related. At least is a light course which gives you many basis informations

The material covered was very interesting but the lecture quizzes where extremely simplified. Many links from the reading material were dead.

It feels more like a non-agile project management course with some agile tacked on. Some of the approaches, recommendations, etc. do not follow typical agile best practices. For example, an emphasis of using both story points AND time estimates within the same project. (I have never seen this recommended in years of doing either Scrum or XP. I don't recall it ever being part of the Scrum certs either. In my experience time based estimates are strongly discouraged compared to story points - and with reason! It kind of misses the point of why story points are used. So it seems to be a bit of an odd recommendation to go ahead and undermine it...)

Hardly any good feedback received for the peer-reviewed assignments.
None of the discussion forum links worked.
Supplementary resources were no longer available and need to be updated.

The language barrier of the instructor was not helpful.

The final module of this course is so absurd that you must not waste your time with the previous ones is you want a certificate. Better take some other course.

Some of the questions and quizes do not make sense, sometimes you complicate tests for no reason

79 USD? just to be able to submit peer-graded assignments... talk about greed
