Very challenging, but good course. I've been programming in R for over a year, but there were still some things for me to pick up in this class. Assignments were a challenge, but satisfying to tackle.

This was very engaging, however, the level of expectation and effort needed is much greater than course 1 - ToolBox.
This is perhaps the best course on R Programming designed for a small duration.

The programming assignments were way too difficult compared with the material presented in the same week.

I felt some assignment required more knowledge than the course had offered. Overall this is a good course

its good and still more programming problems can be discussed to ease the learners to dive interest in R.

the presentations are very hard to follow, it requires a lot of extra time reading the professor's book

The lectures were a bit hard to follow and the assignments were way harder than the topics in lectures

Much of the material is learned via googling. Do not look to the course videos to be enough to go on.

Large disconnect between course content and assignments given. Otherwise a good learning experience.

examples are way too easy compared to the disproportionate difficulty of the programming assignments

While the lessons are good, there is a large difficulty spike with a few of the course assignments.

I wish there were more in-depth exercises at an intermediate level before what we got in the exams.

Too big the gap between lectures and assignments. Only partially filled by the task of the mentors.

There seem to be a big gap on what was taught and was was given in the quizes. Overall it was okay.

Assignments are far more challenging than they should be. Course content is good introductory to R.

Could do a better job of teaching more of the fundamentals involved in the Programming Assignments.

The gap between teachings and assignment is quite large. This is definitely not beginner-friendly.

The pace of talking of some of the intutor is too fast, if slow down a little bit, will be better.

there is a wide gap between the videos, practice assignments and completing the required projects.

It was very difficult for me to follow the exercises, since I don't have a programming background.

Some good information, and a good course platform, but I didn't feel all the parts fit together.

Way too wide a gulf between the material in lectures and practice exercises and the evaluations.

The first course is better - provide students an alternative learning method aside from videos.

The homework is more harder than what I learned. The errors in speaking made me uncomfortable.

materials didn't cover everything necessary for assignments, and time requirement was not clear

Very large gap between instructional material and programming assignments; perhaps too large.
