Very well presented course. I took in alot of information. A little more guidance would have been helpful when completing the projects, but overall I am very pleased with this course and instructor.

I like the course. It was not innovative. The UX wasn't even made to what was taught.

Peer-reviewing resulted in absurd entries because people are hoping to just get certificates.

Organization of the course deserves 1 star, content is 5 stars... on average... 3.

The tasks and submissions need to be redesigned, restructured and more clear. Less text to read to be able to understand what to do.

I did learn a great deal, but was very frustrated with the lack of clarity in the assignment descriptions. They were worded confusingly, and the rubric wouldn't match. For example, the professor would state he wanted at least 7 of one thing, and actually expect 10 of that thing in order to get full credit on an assignment. More does not necessarily equal better.

It has been over 3 weeks and I have been unable to submit a second (edited) edition of an assignment because the system notices similarities with my first submission which I was requested to update with corrections. The issue may be with Coursera. The engineers have been completely unhelpful, unfortunately.

IF YOU WORK A F-T PROFESSIONAL JOB, DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE!!! IT'S A TIME WASTER.

Videos aside, this course is a complete waste of time for working professionals. The biggest time-wasters are in the final 6th week.

First, the course instructors deliberately create a confusing assignment and label it as a UI/UX challenge. Most people who posted said they wasted minimum 45 minutes just trying to figure out the assignment; I know I did.

Second, after you get through listing all of the UX violations, they drop a bigger time-wasting bomb by asking students to repeat the previous assignment (which was done in an Excel grid format) but this time in a report format and the example provided is 40 PAGES LONG!!!!! What the heck?!!! No one has time for this foolishness.

Clearly someone who has ZERO professional work experience threw this course together because it's a complete time waster. Do yourself a favor and take the Google course.
