This is my favorite course, it was totally new for me and Dr. Chuck did it very easy to understand.

This is a great course. Thank you Dr. Chuck to make the class more engaging.
It's more about width rather than depth in this course because learning and using all of the skill in accessing and processing web data through python needs to spend far more time than this. Still this course provides me a good start and a broad understanding of what's going on with areas such as regular expression, XML, Json, API and python's connection with them. I even got some skill and code in my computer to do some tricky operation on the web with python and it is good.
Very Useful Introduction to Using Python to Access Web Data
This is a very good course. If you're really interested in Python, you have to take it.
I enjoyed the first two courses of the specializations a bit more, but still think this was solid.
I wish greater detail was used for the api access...for instance twurl install didn't work so wasn't able to test various functionality using it
very good, like it
Great! Though, I suggest the assignments should be a bit more challenging. Because it really takes no time to complete. I believe Dr Chucks is deliberately doing it for the audience which is not necessarily a 'student'. But, still, the audience might take a great learning shot out of some challenging!
Good for starters with little or no prior Programming experience.
