Ratings and Reviews for Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python)

I got a 95% and maybe I learned something but I can honestly say it wasn't because I watched the videos - the professor is seriously disconnected. Programming for "Everybody"? I know what I want to do with programming, but all the examples and small programs you write in this course give you no idea of what of someone outside science and math will ever use programming for.

A Good Start for python

very clear and efficient instruction!

very nice :D

The course was too easy and could have been a bit more challenging.

It is easy to understand. This course is good to treat as entry.

very useful, got basic understanding of Python

The course made me feel interested to learn continuously. Thank you very much.

I am completely satisfied with the course. I think that I have built a strong foundation for Python Programming. I fully enjoyed every single bit of the lectures by Dr. Chuck, quiz and assignments at the end of chapters. Auto-grading system is yet another big advantage. Thank you Dr. Chuk, University of Michigan and Coursera!!!

Assignments are fun and challenging, but errors in the Python wizard should be explained better -- I know you are looking to replicate Python's errors, but for new students, it is not really easy to interpret how to solve a "bad line" error
