Thanks

Tying the assignments to an Android Studio project was overkill; the same principles could have been demonstrated with a SIMPLE java application.

this is a very nice course, it's kind of primary, i guess it can use much more practical examples rather than using the dog and cat examples.

I don't know why the examples are Android applications. It would have been easier to use python or even java running the virtual machine.

this course taught about different of software design and architecture thank you so much

Good introductory course in Object Oriented Programming

The course is not good and not bad. It introduces you to software design principles by describing some concepts. However, it is highly (too) abstract: you usually do not understand how to apply these principles in real software. Moreover, instead of explaining it, the course just provides you some analogies from the real life. So, this course can be considered as a glossary of buzzwords, not more. Also, there are no control of your knowledge or understanding. Instead of some objective control, the assignments are reviewed by different learners, and you do not know: either your assignment is correct or a reviewer does not understand the material in the same way as you or the reviewer just marked your assignment as correct without reviewing. Additionally, this course teaches you that data class is anti-pattern. No comments here.

Content was good, but the assignments are not. The final capstone assignment is largely a copy-paste exercise from a line-by-line tutorial, based on an Android app. Those without expertise in Android will find themselves having to learn that first, even though it should be unnecessary given the content. The assignment does not actual demonstrate any of the concepts from the class. Peer discussion forums are almost entirely people asking for reviews rather than any meaningful discussion.

I've expected more from Coursera. This particular course contends more outdated information, weird questions that are not going to help in the real-life daily job. Week 4 which is supposed to be the big project contains a lot of copy-paste and all thinking activity how to use Android studio. Knowledge of UML diagrams was not tested, all code that supposed to be written by a course listener was already provided, no thinking was required. Disappointed

Poorly prepared course very boring material and grading system is awful you must grade three other student tasks and they must grade you so in case you all missed something you all pass from tasks but a fake pass because you are all missing something Coursera peer grading system is the worst I have ever seen

Not happy with the examples are given and not more interactive one .

I am enjoying the lesson until I face the Capstone project where we need to write all properties and methods of each classes. Not to mention, the classes included in the template is not even the main classes, instead it uses the Android built-in libraries which I think is out of context of learning. Additionally, there are students who evaluate project unfair, despite writing my intention. I was going to enrol and pay for the monthly fee but this changed my mind. Let me know if you adjusted this course and remove the peer evaluation.

Honestly, this course is very poor and doesnt gives you necessary tools to model a object oriented solution in UML. The exercises need to be more real , what i mean is there isnt any code to help us to understand the real application of UML in POO.

Please don't take this course. The course assignments and materials except video is completely broken. There are so many things which doesn't make sense with other.

don't waste your money. Watch talks on youtube, you will gain more from a 1h talk at a conference than 10h from this course

Lesson: 1+1 = 2

Assignment: find integral e^x secx(1+tanx)dx

Android developing? No kidding?

This comprehensive course has significantly elevated my proficiency in Java programming, particularly through an in-depth exploration of object-oriented analysis and design principles. The key takeaways include: Advanced Object-Oriented Design: Mastery of creating modular, flexible, and reusable software through the application of object-oriented design principles and guidelines. Acquisition of skills to analyze and design sophisticated software systems. Unified Modeling Language (UML): Proficiency in communicating complex designs through the use of Unified Modeling Language (UML), a standard visual notation for software modeling. Capstone Project Challenge: Application of acquired knowledge through a challenging Capstone Project involving the evolution and documentation of a Java codebase for an Android application, accompanied by comprehensive UML documentation. Key Achievements: Application of the Class Responsibility Collaborator (CRC) technique for robust problem analysis and object-oriented model design. In-depth understanding and application of object-oriented modeling principles, encompassing abstraction, encapsulation, decomposition, and generalization. Proficient knowledge and application of various types of inheritance. Clear comprehension of association, aggregation, and composition dependencies. Skill in expressing object-oriented models using UML class diagrams. Ability to seamlessly translate between UML class diagrams and equivalent Java code. Application of design guidelines for achieving modularity, separation of concerns, information hiding, and conceptual integrity, resulting in flexible, reusable, and maintainable designs. Insight into the crucial tradeoff between cohesion and coupling in software design. This course has not only enriched my Java skill set but has also empowered me with a robust foundation in object-oriented design principles, setting the stage for building high-quality, scalable software solutions.

As an introductory course I found this fair. It introduced concepts at a good pace, the material was well constructed and delivered, and the content was on topic with an emphasis on software design and not coding.

After completing this course you have an idea of how to go about solving your software problems visually and can communicate the state of the issue well with others. The terminology and UML are valuable tools that I will continue to practice going forward.

I did have some issues with Android studio, but the emphasis of this course was on software design, not code/frameworks.
