Carrie's enthusiam for R was contagious. She provides clear and easy to understand explanations, and she is pleasant to listen to. It was easy to follow up. I am myself an R enthusiast now. Thank you!

Excellent course with lucid explaination. The way instructor covers the course makes you fall in love with R. All the topics are covered beautifully. Thank coursera and Google for this awesome course.

This is NOT Google's fault. But the forum blew up because of Coursera's decision to stagger start times for the course. I am trying to fast track this, and the fact that I have to wait now is unbelievable. There was NO warning, no mention that this would happen - it was just imposed on us arbitrarily.

Why this is a bad policy is because most don't complete purely self directed courses. Completion of these courses is largely determined by a participants' levels of motivation. Their motivation fluctuates across time.

By restricting when people can progress, this makes it harder for the motivated to complete the course. Sometimes, you get "in the zone" and are able to learn the material quickly thanks to Google's excellent course content. But, this is contingent on the motivated being able to take on more work during periods of high motivation. Blocking access to classes and forcing people to wait for an arbitrary time only serves to frustrate people and hamper the motivated.

Sorry Google, this class is great but this BS policy is horrible!

I thought this course was pretty good in the beginning. However, turns out the cloud based platform they teach you on has a time limit. So, after starting my capstone project using R, I was cut off from using it. I tried to move to the desktop version of R and it is nothing like the cloud based platform. I feel like I learned nothing and would not be able to tell an employer that I know how to use R.

This was very poorly instructed. I don’t know how to write code in R. It was never actually explained. She quickly typed her code and said “run it… there you go.” And, actually writing the code were the questions I got wrong on the course challenge.

I feel like all the other courses in this program were easy to follow and learn, however this course just jumped right into R and I found it extremely hard to understand.

Teaching the R language has been really poor. For someone new to the language, the tutor just skips through many concepts , which makes things pretty confusing.

There were serious issues with the audios in videos about which numerous complaints were made but to no avail. Pretty ridiculous from coursera.

As someone that has used R in the past, this is probably the worst way to try to teach someone R. To make matters worse, this is paid content.
