A comprehensive course that covers major aspects of query building and retrieval in a management system. The topics were delivered well and the materials/assignments were relevant for skill-building.

I loved the practices. I learned alot But I think some of them had mistakes... The online visual studio code never worked for me! It might be good to make a video that explains how to work with it.

Overall, it's a great course to be introduced to SQL without any background knowledge. However, lectures in Week 3 is hard to understand, which I need to seek for other sources to learn on my own.

The course gives us the basics of SQL only wrt Data Science. It does not tell us much about SQL. Would have liked if more information was given on SQL and how that works. All in all, good course.

Certain quiz questions were unclear. Final peer-review assignment had unclear/ambiguous questions that didn't fit with the data in my opinion. But content is useful. Delivery could be improved.

The course is very well planned with all the basics required to run a query in SQLite. But on the other hand, when it came to the last modules the class just takes off with very few examples.

Strongly suggest adding more example code and its running result which will make more sense for beginner. And more exercise problems as current Quiz do not cover all the points in the lecture.

Found some of the questions were not well-written in the last assignment. Some of the explanations during the video were difficult to follow and I believe more complex than they needed to be

There should have been more worked examples of queries as it would be hard for a fresher to fully understand it. Btw the Yelp Database lookup page was very helpful to play with the dataset.

The curse structure was well-drafted. However, the lack of interaction with the moderators was disheartening. The reading material linked is dated and the course needs an overall update.

Too lengthy unnecessary explanations in the beginning and the end of every video lecture. There is no platform to execute during the lecture what the instructor is showing in the video.

The quizzes will expand your knowledge more. writing and running codes during lecture videos could have made it more easier to understand though, this is what is missing to get a 5 star

You learn the basics of SQL but the course is a bit slow and repetitive, and the last peer-graded assignment should be graded by a computer or the TA's, not just random participants.

Lectures provide limited information and then quizzes jump in difficulty from what is learned in videos. More practice worksheets or examples would be useful for new sql beginners.

Great Course to start with.
Gives a good understanding of SQL on one side en working with databases on the other.
A syllabus of al the code examples in the video's should behelpfull

Final assignment has many questions that are unclear. Difficult to find answers in discussion forums, forums are poorly moderated, most questions have no useful answers.

it's OK, but not great. Some directions are confusing and the ending assignment has unclear directions. An example syntax or more specific instructions would be helpful.

Overall good course. The lectures could be made a bit interesting and engaging with exercises broken up. Found the lectures monotonous however course material is good.

I think there are not enough examples to help students learn the syntaxes deeply. It seems that some examples that students can code simultaneously can help more.

Videos were lame and didn't bother withe examples much but exercises were good to learn basic SQL (although u can learn same thing from google if not better)

The course starts easy and okay but the last assignment was so difficult. Quiz on what you teach and teach what we failed to understand (Assignment 4) part 3

There are some errors and the final project felt like I was abandoned and had to learn how to use DBeaver by myself, which made the project harder to do.

This is a good intro course. Sometimes some of the content is covered too rapidly and needs additional supportive exercises to truly master the content.

I really liked the format of the quizzes but some videos were codes without an output so it was hard picturing what some key word does like the GROUP BY

Course instructor needed some improvement. It felt as though she was reading from cards the whole time and not really adding much value to the course.
