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.

Assignments are not good representations of course materials. The Instructor speaks too fast.

compared to the assignment, the course should have used better examples during the lectures.

It's ok... they get a bit into some R stuff that seems archaic once you use the tidyverse...

I found a several of the assignments did not relate to the material covered in the lectures.

It is not a beginner friendly course. Learn R from somewhere else and then take this course.

It is a huge step from the material to the assignments, more support on assignments needed.

To many text on the slides. Video resolution is not adopted for smartphone (Asus zenfone 5)

Course was good but assignment was too hard and there's no explanation of the assignments.

The assignments are a little not related or more complex than what are there in the videos

the homework in this course is too easy to make me feel that I have made a great progress.

Simply not tough enough...Maybe more topics regarding class programming should be covered?

This course does not teach thoroughly. There is no direction or lead in to best practices.

I'd say good if you are well versed in R already BUT for me...a little too much too soon.

Not very clear instructions. It can go above the head at times. SWIRL part is the best.

Assignments are much more advanced than what is taught and course matter is also less.

Demanding. The peer reviewed task in week 3 is not adapted to the material content.

Nice course, sometimes a bit too abstract. Could do with some more vivid examples

I learned from the lectures, but the lectures didn't prepare me to do the hmwk.
