Very well structured, taught and paced course, I only wish it had a passing project which would have given us more hands on practice and insights to parallel programming.

The information found in this course is great. The first and second mini projects were of average difficulty, but the third and fourth mini projects were too trivial.

Explanation of theory was best. But Assignments lacked clarity. For example, we might expect little more clarification about threads In order to use them effectively

Instructor is awesome. However instead of sharing ready libraries for parallelism (like forall loop) in section 3, native codes should be used for forall loops etc.

Introduction to theoretical concepts was good, but not very deep. The exercises didn't really contribute much to my understanding of the course material in general.

This course explain the concepts in a great way but the exercises

needs to be more rich with problems to enhance our understanding to the concepts.

A great course, but I think it would be even better if only the structures from Java 8 were used, and not the functons build by the Rice University.

Great material, well arranged course flow, willing teacher, and nice project snippets. More coding samples and projects could have been included.

Very good to learn parallel programming in java. excellent to teach in simple way with good example and current scope touching description.

The courses covers broadly the new synchronization primitives in Java8. It is very clear and demonstrative. It is very shallow though.

Thank you for this course! Really interesting, but lacks the real world examples and has little number of tasks to complete.

The concepts are explained well. Quizzes and mini project has good details to understand the concept better.

Could have had more demonstrations, or even examples for reference. Overall, it was a very good course.

More details on concurrency would be a huge benefit to course and students (even as optional material)

Good course that gave you a good overview. The code assignments code have been a little more advanced.

Simple delivery, very manageable work load, and still something tangible to take away from the course.

It was useful and interesting course, however, I'd like to see more complicated practical tasks

-1 star due to the too-easy homework.

I wish the homework can be harder and more challenging.

it'll be perfect if mini projects can deeper test what we've learned in the class.

Enjoyed this course a lot! Wished the projects were a little more substantial

thanks to coursera.to give a simple way to solve parallel programming

i learn new way to do parallel programming in java.thanks to coursera

the lecturer should wear black shirt to make the video more readable.

Great Learning and understanding the parallelism concepts in java

please be more elaborate regarding programming assignments
