Great course, I like the way it talks about different agile methodologies and non-agile methodologies. Useful to know where the discipline has come from and when some approaches are still applicable.

I had read about the different agiles methodologies out there but It was until I took this course that I could "digest" them and internalize how to chose the right one for me and how to apply them.

This is a survey course of software development models and as that it is fine. Did expect more depth though.

Great info. The questions on the quizzes were not clear and weren't fully explained enough in the lessons.
