About the Course

This course is designed to teach you the foundations in order to write simple programs in Python using the most common structures. No previous exposure to programming is needed. By the end of this course, you will understand the benefits of programming in IT roles; understand basic Python syntax; explore different code editors and developer environments; be able to write simple programs using Python; figure out how the building blocks of programming fit together; and combine all of this knowledge to solve a complex programming problem. We'll start off by diving into the basics of writing a computer program. Along the way, you’ll get hands-on experience with programming concepts through interactive exercises and real-world examples. You’ll quickly start to see how computers can perform a multitude of tasks — you just have to write code that tells them what to do....

An excellent course for those who want to boost their programming abilities on Python. It tackles diverse and challenging problems, for you to practice and round out every concept. Highly recommended!

The presenter in the course "Crash Course on Python" was dressed in a distracting manner. Showing cleavage and wearing tight clothing distracts from the professionalism of the course. The focus on these certificates should be the work. The presenters should dress in a modest way that is not offensive or distractive to the learner. I would not want to show these course videos to my children. Please edit the videos to allow the presenter to be dressed in a proper manner for all ages.

There is not enough of a smooth transition in complexity with the video questions/practice quizzes. The content being taught in the videos was simple and easy to follow, while as soon as being presented with a question mid video or practice questions/quizzes, the difficulty drastically increased. This made it very difficult to apply what I was actually learning.

There needs to be more user involvement exercises that gradually increase in complexity.

This is the most frustrating course I've taken in 2 decades. Most exercises are not explained in course material (until around module 4-5), some required concepts are covered after module quizs. Early lessons also focus far to much on higher math concepts to display operations. Then to top it all off the final project's instructions are either incorrect, or the code is bugged ('Close & Halt' does nothing on multiple browsers).

Not beginner friendly. The resources are lacking and I had to do weeks of outside study in order to complete. It fosters learning in the wrong way. It doesn't encourage self-learning it forces it creating an environment that makes the course a testing ground for higher tiered coders. This course shouldn't be recommended to beginners and the task need to be more interactive.

They expect you to have complete mastery of what they'er teaching you from one video lecture. the proglems start easy enough but dial it to 11. had to use outside resources just to understand what was even said. Have some coding experince and this IS NOT a begginer course, its more of a math course with python just happens to be used

Didn't like the course. No practical activities at all. Just quizzes that asked for logical understanding of the code but no code writing at all. I would've loved it if I had the chance to practice (in the course not on external sites) writing codes from zero repeatedly so I could internalize the processes and syntax better.

Not recommended if you have no previous Python or programming experience. They never show the correct answers for any of the exercise/assesment questions, so there's no way to check what is wrong with the script that won't excecute, and no way to check what is the correct way to proceed.

Decent course, but its definitely not for a beginner. The videos don't aid in the assignments at all. This course is only great if you have a fair amount of knowledge in Python.

I wish there was more complex examples instead of simple ones instead of giving simple ones then throwing the harder ones on the test.

Need to know what I've got wrong in assessment, not enough detail. And i get the right answer but it still doesn't accept it.

The information put fourth in this course is great, however the graded exams are not closely related to the subject matter.

Quizzes are far far difficult than what is covered in videos.. This could be better if it was beginner oriented material.
