Ratings and Reviews for Using Databases with Python

Instructor is engaging, conceptual overviews were excellent. Here's what I would do to improve: (1) I don't think it would cost you much or take you much time to add honors content. That would be helpful for anyone just brushing up on the material that wants to go a little further. (2) The last assignment is absurdly easy. I've never had a programming assignment where the criteria is simply to run code someone else has already written. That's just lazy and it hurts the brand name of Coursera and the University of Michigan. I'm sure some of your students ('ahem) would be happy to produce some honors concept and rework the final assignment.

Nice and interresting course!

I think the assignments could be harder. The allotted tasks sound really difficult, but you're given base code which requires minimal changes, if any. I think that more challenging tasks would aid my retention better. As it is, I think I will want to look up additional exercises in the textbook, or something.

Love learning SQL and all of its components

Loved it

Best courese to do.

Good, I particularly enjoyed how understandable Charles Severance makes the basics of SQL and how it integrates with Python.

Very brief of how to use SQLite with python. Although we do not have much time to go to details in each code but it is great to get the feeling what is it all about.

Database code is just a walkthrough. It should have been more details... Its hard to understand the code :(

Well explained - very clear and useful.
