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

Very enaging course

good

Thanks <3

Very interesting with good exercisers course.

This is a great course. The teacher not only knows his material, but has a lot of experience working with first time programmers and so knows what errors they are likely to make and what questions they are likely to ask and addresses them all. He is fun to listen to, unlike some moocs I have taken where the teachers were reading and got the intonation all wrong--very distracting. This one wasn't like that by far. He was interesting and even funny at times. I worked through all the materials, including reading the chapters in the book in just four days. I'd say there is about 2 to 4 hours of work per "week" expected. So, great course. I'm glad to have the materials. The videos covers what's in the book, but in an easy to understand way, so when you read the chapter associated with it, you can follow along without it being too dry or laborious. Then you are ready for the quiz and coding problem(s), and then a little wrap up material before moving on to the next lesson. I'm glad we are allowed to work ahead. I'm moving on to the second course in the specialization, which picks up where this one left off. If you want to learn Python or just "a" programing language to get a start or just dabble in programming, this is a great place to start

good course

just one word Fab!

This is a great course for anyone to hop into learning python and I think it is designed very well!

Decent intro to Python course. The lectures are good and the exercises help build skills. The quizzes are a bit pointless in my opinion, since you could probably go straight to them and get a high score without even completing the mateial.
