Good real world application of ideas and situations used in the life of a data analyist. I just dont like how coursera / the instructors vaguely answer questions. I am still not totally sure how to complete all the codes and I feel like we are tested on things we haven't been taught in the class.

Like the idea of reinforcing an important topic like web scraping but the length is small so it feels more like an assignment. Also a lot of guidance and hints are provided - the code can simply be copied from previous exercises. I prefer a project where new challenges are introduced.

I very like the idea of doing a small project only for practicing writing code. But it did not challenge the learners enough to gain some "real" code writing experience. It felt a bit like more oft the same interactive stuff that is already in the course (which i appreciate a lot).

Me parece que se tiene que organizar mejor el curso. Hay mucho material que no va para ningún lado, ya que es repetitivo. También vale la pena profundizar en la configuración de los entornos virtuales. Ahí queda un enorme vacío. Bastaría con un link con una explicación detallada

This course needs a bit of an overhaul. It wasn't entirely easy to get a grasp of the concepts with Python and the libraries used within it. I know other coding languages and Python isn't my favorite at all, but for multiple reasons, this was a struggle to get through.

My main concern is the copy-pasty nature of the course, which I'm pretty sure doesn't reflect real life demands. Having done CS courses in university in the past, they felt much more challenging in terms of the problem solving required in order to complete tasks.

It was a fun course, but I think that it could have more depth in other topics, it's primarily based in Web Scraping using Beautiful Soup.

Also it says that it is an intermediate course but I think that needs more content to be considered of that difficulty.

The time recommended to complete each section in my opinion is way off I'd say in needs to be increased by 10 to 15 times to sufficiently understand the material. Its no way 30 minutes is enough when now being introduced to the majority of these topics

The content was very short and learning required lot of side research. This section is poorly designed, this is not how other coursera modules are designed. This seemed to be a rush job. Suggest adding more content and reduce the steep learning curve.

The course itself was okay, but the instructions don't seem to get the final project in Watson set up correctly. Based on posts in the forums, this has been an issue for quite some time... This caused me quite a bit of frustration.

Content is good but implementation is poor, course chat support is ineffective, and resources were broken. Note that IBM did offer a month of free class to make up for the tools being down, but it was last straw at that point.

Some information like the links to the necessary data was hard to figure out, generally I learned a lot. I would recommend it anyone who wants to learn the harder way! It is intermediate, so beginners don't get headache

The instructions for working on watson studio (creating an account and creating a project) are out of date, confusing, and need desperately to be revamped. Other than that couple of frustrating hours, I learned alot!

Definitely helpful but feels shoehorned into the Professional Data Science Certificate and more instructional material and videos to understand reasoning behind the elements of Webscraping would be beneficial.

mmmmm---okay...some of the code modules don't work..attention to detail every code module says 'you just finished your first coding' exercise down at the bottom. It's always the small details that I notice.

The course content is good and great for beginner level. But faced a lot of issue in accessing the IBM skill network because of which I missed deadlines in the assignment and delayed completing the course.

I think that the final assignment of the course is too complicated, because the knowledge and programming skills after fifth course were not enough to solve the problems that were in the final assignment.

I already knew most topics. yfinance library was new to me and I fell it was not explained well. What it is, from where we get the data, is data updated? It was still fun doing analysis on real data.

Lots of errors between the code taught and what works in Python today. Had to use a lot of resources outside the course to actually learn - which was useful - but took much longer than it needed.

This course is not for absolute beginners. Some concepts are not briefly explained but they are needed to complete the assignment. If these things get better then this course can offer more.

Instructions regarding the final project or projects (not even sure at this point) was EXTREMELY UNCLEAR and UNBELIEVABLY CONFUSING... unlike the two other IBM courses I've taken so far.

the labs are not working to submit work to be graded. Also yfinance is deprecated and no longer a viable instrument for getting stock information. VS code won't even load it anymore.

This project only includes the programming questions relevant to web scraping and API. You should also include the other programming questions relevant to Python course material

Overal project assignment is good. But, using For loop for webscrapping has to be taught more in previous Course 04. Even using Dataframe is to be taught more for webscrapping.

The project was okay, but didn't test the broadest range of skills due to unnecessary repetition. Overall production and spelling were short of a quality educational product.
