This is a great course to get you started on using Python to access web data. The course has lots of examples and Professor Severance breaks down the concepts into smaller components that are easy to learn. It is highly recommended that students download the course material and review the code examples along with the presentations. That pratical experience reinforced a deeper understanding that made the assignments much easier to complete.

very happy with this course .
Awesome!! ..Python course
Very clear explanation of use of important python libraries.
Some confusing info in the last part. Lots of information on stuff like REST, which could have been explained better.
Dr. Chuck is an excellent professor! Hope there can be more courses instructed by him on Coursera!
Another awesome course from Dr. Chuck. I can't recommend it highly enough!
Great course! Thank you very much for the wonderful material and fantastic way of teaching.
The biggest frustration I have with this course is that the examples worked through in the class don't exactly correlate with the assignments we are given. I will understand the lectures for the most part but then end up completely lost during the assignments. I know the point of the course is to struggle and work through problems but the retention is difficult. I have had to seek help through outside resources because I don't feel like the course adequately prepares us for the assignments.
Amazing!!!
