The course is good but there are discrepancies between the information in the videos and the chapter reviews. i.e. video is a +b = c but the chapter reviews state a+c =b. Also, not everything that was covered is in some of the chapter reviews. Important information is missing.

Great content. I wish there were a way for me to see which which questions I got wrong (for example, if I am happy with my grade and disable quiz attempts, being able to receive feedback so that I can understand my mistake going forward). Otherwise, I enjoyed the course.

A good course should not only teach the concepts of project management but also provide a complete summary at the end of each video. If this summary were in the form of flashcards at the end of the course to help us memorize key points, it would be perfect.

The course was very informative and covered the main points clearly. However, it is difficult to know what to study for when the quizzes don't provide feedback. Feedback would go a long way in the exam prep.

For the final graded assignments, it would be good to provide feedback on incorrect answers. At present only the grades % is provided, and we are not clear as to what questions have incorrect answers.

My only complaint is that the quiz questions should probably be proofread a little more.

I got through module 1; however, the module quiz was very disorganized. Most of the quiz was on topics that had not been covered in module 1. I am not sure what happened. This is disappointing. I am finding it a challenge to find a good PMP Exam Prep course here on Coursera. I had high hopes for this one. I will try module 2 and see if I have the same issue.

the videos are good, the recaps after them are just bad, Some questions in the tests or quizs are weird as well .

I'm taking this course as preparation for the PMP exam (which I have not taken yet). I have some project management experience, but no prior formal training in project management. This course seems to provide a very high-level overview of project management. On the plus side, it has familiarized me with some jargon that I did not know and helped me orient myself in the project management world, which I imagine will be beneficial on the exam. The lectures are easy to follow, and I like the lecture-review-quiz format that is used throughout the course. However, I don't feel like this course has given me knowledge or tools to make me a better project manager. Few of the concepts are illustrated with examples. Tools are mentioned and defined at a high level, but there is no instruction about how to implement them. Perhaps those things will be fleshed out in more detail in the later courses within the specialization. One glaring error in the construction of this course was the end-of-module quiz at the end of the introductory module. It contained many questions on topics that were not discussed until later modules, and some were never discussed at all throughout this course. The quiz was clearly misplaced within the sequence of tasks, or may not even belong in this course at all. This leaves me wondering about the quality control that went into preparing this course.
