I learned many things from this course. However, I think in some points it could have been instructed much better. But all in all, it is a very worthy course for the price offered. Thanks a lot!

It was really great learning with coursera and I loved the course. The way faculty teaches here is just awesome as they are very much clear and helped a lot while learning this coursea

Not the best of the courses. Lots of content which jumps around. There is very little practical work so I'm not sure what I have learned there. However, it does give a good overview of the possibilities. The speakers were very clear but there needed to be more engaging examples and user input opportunities.

The course is very resource heavy, i.e. it has great intuitive resources, but the learning experience was very poor. Some of the instructors were very sparse with the material contents, some just brushed over the contents without much explanation and.
The quality of the course has to be improved.

You can learn several things from this course but you need to know Neural Networks and Deep Learning in advance. The content looks a bit disorganized but still pretty useful for day to day Deep learning implementations. Really cool the System ML integration with Keras.

Too much focus on IBM platform, good overview on Keras/SystemML/DL4J though, some presentations could have been better prepared and implemented. Overall an average Coursera course and not a particularly great experience to work through the material.

Something happened to the free 1CPU 4GB python environment on IBM watson studio. It is unavailable and so I had to struggle with Skills Network Labs instead. Please can this be checked?

This course contain very good introduction to AI and DeepLearning. Although it assumed alot of knowledge already from the students in order to follow the content effectively.

Fairly okay course. Lectures were real hurried and high level. Had it not been for my Math and CS background I would not have gotten most of the material.

Several lectures were superficial. I feel like I need to put a lot more time on my on to understand how to build a proper neural network model.

The programming assignments were easy. I wish it had some more difficult assignments requiring you to code your own neural networks

Good course, the explanation of CNN could be better, the anomaly detection exercise it's kind out of focus

Basic Deep learning; no programming assignment for most part of deep learning part

You should update the modules to TensorFlow 2.x; they are outdated.

I liked the general idea of this course, but the actual material is not as good as it could be. There are lots of inaccuracies in the material (like annoying typos and not working code examples) which should be corrected before you sell this course on Coursera.
I strongly suggest that you go through your material with someone who has pedagogy knowledge and who can assist you to improve the didactic aspects of your material.
I did this course (and the whole specialization) for the practical examples as I feel rather confident with the theoretical aspects of machine learning, but I wanted to learn how to do these things in Spark environment. At the end of the day I have got what I wanted (more or less, as the NLP part was really lousy), but if I would not have strong experience with the field, I would have been surely lost. Honestly, I would have a hard time to recommend these courses for someone who wants to learn about machine learning and not about how to do machine learning with Keras, etc. And I am sorry to say that, because, again, I liked the team, the attitude, and the technical aspects of this course.

There was a lot of interesting content, but I was sad that the programming assignments were fairly trivial. Any point where something deep and useful could have been assigned (I was hoping to get experience or guidance on building an LSTM autoencoder, for example) we were instead given a super easy alternative that was mostly pressing [Shift]+[Enter] on a Jupyter Notebook. SystemML seemed cool, but the only thing we ever did with it was multiply some matrices, and not even on a Spark cluster. I felt like I didn't learn that much because there was no point where I really had to engage my brain.

Some lessons are too hard to follow because of stong foreign accents and poor grammar, so the student ends up spending most of their effotrs on tranlation. Instructors mostly go through coding notebooks quite quickly. The oil forcasting module is an example of the defects of the course: Poor language, poor presentation, 'here', 'there', 'now' are used to reference the code with no pointers, slides are borrowed from online sources and insufficient. The proposed code is a tentative time series forecating toy example with catastrophic results, not at par with any time series standard.

The course is delivered at a very high level of abstraction. If you are a beginner, I wouldn't recommend this course as the explanations provided are quite vague and not so good in many instances. Justifications for the use of quite a couple of algorithms/values are not provided thus leaving the learner with a lot of "Why's"
One of the nice things about the course is that the instructor responds promptly to students' queries.

Again, the instructor speaks way too fast to explain anything. Even the subtitle cannot follow the instructor line by line. Frequent occurrence of inaudible words or sentence or wrong translations. When it comes to the code, never really understood what each line of codes is for...

Very good topic with not very good instructors. The exercises and programming assignments are too way easy and do not help in getting enough knowledge. All instructors are not native English speakers and have very strong accent and speak slowly.
