Online courses from Ivy League professors!
What do you like best about the product?
Coursera offers one of the largest collection of online courses in the world and many of these courses are offered through recorded video lessons by Ivy league professors who teach the same courses to full-time undergraduate and graduate students. Also, the wealth and breadth of courses present make it a revolutionary alternative to attending atypical college courses. Overall, websites like coursera are an important component of the education economy.
What do you dislike about the product?
More courses should involve peer to peer collaboration and teamwork in projects but currently there is not a compulsion on course participants to participate in forum discussions or post their opinions on course questions. This can limit the virtual classroom environment of some courses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The greatest benefit of coursera is access to quality courses on various subjects that you can either browse or dive in deeply. Customizatable, flexible and accessible.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a highly recommended tool fort those considering a quick solution to studying quality courses.
Coursera, excellent tool to further education.
What do you like best about the product?
Layout, content, videos, ease-of-use. I also like the variety of course options and how easy it is to manage classes on your own schedule. Also certificates earned after course completion are able to be linked to your LinkedIn profile.
What do you dislike about the product?
Paying for separate courses, no overall subscription for all content.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great way to continue education as well as learn new skills, affordable and easy to do on your own time.
Great plataform, but expensive
What do you like best about the product?
It has great courses from top institutions, like renowned universities. And has great exercices with great feedbacks
What do you dislike about the product?
It is too expensive, you don't get teachers feedback usually and you can take some payed courses, but you can't make the activities, and that a bummer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am improving my curriculum and skills for my freelance work. The courses, even the ones you can't make the exercises, are really good and give a great learning for who is taking the classes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to spend.
Online education headed in the right direction
What do you like best about the product?
I love how these lectures are recorded online which means you can go back anytime to revisit the content. This is convenient because in class lectures you can't go back listen to what the professor said. Also, I love the format of the site. It has a modernized look to it and it's easy to search up classes utilizing the categories they provide you.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about it is that I can't reach the professors with questions about the course. Also, there aren't enough materials for me to practice on. Another issue I have is that some the timing some of these courses were not flexible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are no business problems I am solving with Coursera.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have compiled your own practice materials in order to have more stuff test your knowledge with. Also just because it's an online course don't be lazy with it. Make sure you complete all your work before the deadline!
Experience using online learning with Coursera
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Coursera is, it feels like you are taking classes at your school. They have a really good 'class room' experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much to hate about it actually. The place where they can improve is on recommendations and user interface in general.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Coursera is solving the problem for a lot of people who want to learn but either don't have the money or the time. For me personally it has been time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Motivate the users to 'stay on learn on'. One of the issues with online learning, which is very commonly heard among in my social network, is that it is hard to keep up even with the social feature they have. Because it is online, it kind of loses a little importance. So, some other way of keeping users motivated.
Coursera Review
What do you like best about the product?
I have helped complete over 20 courses on Coursera for my students at my peer mentoring sessions. I am extremely happy overall with my experience with it. It offers a huge spectrum of classes in many different disciplines from liberal arts, to engineering. Also, the courses are offered from big-name universities like Brown, Stanford etc making them legit and trustworthy.
What do you dislike about the product?
The prices for these courses are really high and most of my college students are not able to afford that kind of pricing. Also, there is less student interaction which makes it difficult for students to find answers for something they can't find online and is specific to the class. Maybe this can be changed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it at UNT to help my students get certified in various courses which are essential to building a skill set and a great addition to their resumes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The best web service for online courses, but you might want to try other software like codeacademy if you just need to learn the skills and don't care about the certificate. But definitely, if you want quality, Coursera is the place to go.
great platform
What do you like best about the product?
Personally I like that the course is spread over few weeks, there are peer and instructor review of graded work completed during the course which stimulates to study the chosen course and put an effort into it.
What do you dislike about the product?
price and availability of courses (used to be free)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Coursera provides quick access to the course which are typically designed for a quick immersion into a subject with minimum prior knowledge required. Hence to understand new subject better it's a great way to to that.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
More 100% courses
Good product!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the multiple course options! It is also clear in each description as to what we should expect. I like the variety.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a lot of tech options, I would love some more education/children focused. I disliked that not all of them have the option to be self taught, although I understand that may be a personal choice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's more so about professional development! Which is great-- I need 16 hours each year for work! It's really fun to learn more about different areas that I wasn't able to in college!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it for professional development for yourself or your employees! It has so many options, including self timing courses for the busy professional, or actual courses with deadlines for those who prefer school!
