Not working - no link to one drive files for the analyzed data

The instructor gets 5 stars. She speaks clearly and at a good pace. Coursera should have her teach a full course on Data Analysis.

Microsoft or Coursera...The constant interruptions from the left pane of Microsoft 0 stars. Not sure if that's MS or Coursera technical issue.

There should be an option to pin the instructor's screen side of the screen. I logged on to my MS account and downloaded the excersise files. I'm using my own MS account to follow along using excel on a second monitor.

I tried expanding the right side by using the icon at the top right. It'll stay in a full screen position for a few minutes and then it goes back to a split screen. This happened constantly during the presentation. Also, happened in other guided project tutorials.

I tried logging out of the MS side screen by clicking on the 3. and choosing exit.

This course was very interesting to attend, it was super quick, but it was quite fun, and I got to sharpen my skills in some data analysis tasks.

I would not mind it at all if another guided project came along, a bit more complex ehehe

You made my day today. You are the kind of teacher I have been looking for, you really know how to break things down to bits that can be comprehended. Thank you so much, and in case you have other materials on Data Analysis, I would be grateful to take those lessons.

Excellent straightforward course. Good teaching skills. In less than two hours (with a common Excel background), you can receive the certifcate. It was for me, a very good refresher on VLOOKUP and Pivot Tables.

Great Intro for Beginners. It supported me in affirming I should definitely take the Google Data Analytics. So I am :) Appreciating the journey so far.

The assessment test needs to be more practical! Multiple choice questions don't test the learners skillset optimally. A case study with pragmatic business questions should be used to test the knowledge stick of students using Excel and not some simple objective questions.

After completion of the course even after paying money, you will not get the certificate of your name so according to me this is not acceptable at all

Instructor was clear, had a pleasant voice, easy to follow instruction, and had a steady pace that was good. My experience, so far, with some Coursera instructors has been that some go at a pace that is so fast one has to continually rewind the video. This instructor's pace was perfect.

My only suggestion would be to have several sample exercises after each task, rather than the one. This would ingrain that task so when it comes time to utilize this skill in real-world situations, it has been cemented in memory.

This helped me understand VLOOKUP and IF a lot better, and I'm very happy I took it. I've already used tables and PivotTables for data analysis before but found that the size of the data made it difficult to use in Excel, so this is much better for smaller spreadsheets and datasets. One small complaint is that the final quiz will ask you how to save an Excel Online spreadsheet when it saves to the cloud automatically. That should be fixed.

Other than that, I highly suggest taking this!

Learning with guidance was fantastic. Trying to learn through experimentation alone would have been challenging and time-consuming. This guided project offered detailed insights and shortcuts that will greatly aid in everyday work tasks.

Thank you for this course!

Coursera is the best platform for me to learn new skills and develop good interest in various applications like MS-EXCEL, and many more. It has become very easy for me now to understand the concepts.
