it hard

To start with, I am already working as a data scientist and I took this course to get a deeper understanding of machine learning from math point of view. I am utterly disappointed with the course, if I knew it would be that bad, I would never have signed up. I think the major problem of the course is not only the fact that the the lecturers jump from one topic to another, and not even the fact that they start explaining the topic without clearing out WHY, but the fact that there is no support, seriously, there is 0 support and there is no way to work through the assignments solutions to undertand how some of them can actually be solved. I honestly advise people considering this course to use some exercise book instead or you can find some videos from this course on YouTube, don't waste your money and time, such poorly organised projects should not get our support

Egregiously misrepresented course. "No previous experience necessary" is false. The instructor often states, "when you originally learned linear algebra" throughout the course. This course is designed to teach students who already know linear algebra how to apply it to machine learning.

If you do not already know linear algebra, the completion time of "15 hours (approximately)" is not realistic. This course took me 4-5 times as long as was advertised. I did not have 60-75 hours to complete this course. the advertised 3 hours a week was reasonable, the reality of 12-15 hours a week caused me significant inconvenience and frustration.

This is absolutely not a beginner's course. The professors did well at explaining but there is a huge gap between what I've heard and what I've done in the exercises. There is not enough information to complete the exercises. When they recommended Khan Academy as a reference source, I feel that it should be a complete whole alternative set of source instead of a supplementary source because Khan Academy explains much slower but in-depth. 5 weeks is not enough for me to go from scratch to an advanced learner. I couldn't retain what I've learnt too because all I heard were words that mean nothing to a novice like me.

This course seems to be barely supported - there are questions in the discussion forums that are years old. Seems ICL has just chucked up sone lecture content and some barely related programming labs with little real thought. I am now going in search of better resources to asctually help me understand what Linear Algebra is all about and how I would actually apply any knowledge of the topic in Python programming. If I was a cynic I'd say ICl just chucked this up to make q feq quick bucks. Really disappointed with very little attempt to ensure students are actually learning through these materials.

Unfortunately not finding it very engaging. I have a bachelors of science in chemical engineering earned 20 years ago, so this isn't virgin ground, but I'm finding it's not making intuitive sense (having a 2nd run at it means going past the "rote learning" approach of 20 years ago). I find 3Blue1Brown more motivating (you start to get it, you search to go further, etc). Also the clear board approach with the instructor's body in the background creates a lot of visual interference in my opinion. Blackboards and whiteboards were less distracting. A similar approach could have been used here.

I wish I had read the most recent reviews for this course. I thought that by taking an online course, they would have produced a course that had a logical flow to it. I was trying to get caught up on some math that I missed taught by a TA that was all over the place. This was the wrong platform. I had to figure out what the first teacher was talking about by going online and learning it there. I was looking for a structured course that would teach me some basics. Not worth the money.

The lectures don't cover the material in the quizzes. The only supplemental material is a single, incomplete formula sheet. In fact, it's hard to see what resources they are trying to provide other than a forum where other users fill in the many gaps and suggest alternate sources of information. Maybe it picks up significantly in weeks 4 and 5, but after going through weeks 1-3, spending most of my time trawling the forums and looking for study/learning materials on other sites, I'm done.

While the course gave a rather high-level theoretical view of several concepts, the quizzes were based in applying those theories. Without examples of how to apply the theories, I don't feel I have a good understanding of the concepts or how they can be useful in real-world scenarios. I needed to use other resources to actually understand the concepts to be able to complete the course, which made the course rather frustrating and useless.

Overall, rushed and poorly explained. It attempts to condense a semester-long course into laughably short videos (maybe 30 mins per "week"). If you had linear algebra before, probably won't be very challenging. But if you haven't... there is no help/explanation to the quizes and the message boards are filled with unanswered questions. Essentially, this course builds a very shaky foundation.

The lectures will cover basic principles and then rather than build on basic principles to solidify the knowledge with practice and repetition, this goes straight to extremely challenging scenarios and me banging my head against a wall. Many comments within the forums are from other students like me who had to access external resources to bridge the gaps.

Not worth the time.

There is no support or interest from the creators to help you through and the automatic grading scripts are erroring out. You will never complete the course as the final assignment wont work at all and no one will help.

to be honest it was not that understandable i had to go through other materials and videos to get some concepts. i think I speak for a few portion of people who too would have felt the same!

It was a terrible experince, bo readings no lectures material nothing. the videos are confusing and in most of the cases they don't give you teh genereal rule to apply.

DONT take this course !! NOT worth for moeny !! you will need to spend additional 30 hours to search on Web and Youtube to understand the cncept in order to get pass

Unclear explanation, week 3 final assignment is a huge discouraging no matter how you can do the previous exercise with ease or not. Maybe this course is not for me.

Bad content and broken links run otherwise adequate lectures. Fortunately I was taking this course as a refresher--there are much better ways to learn linear algebra

Didn't thoroughly explain concepts. Tested on concepts not covered. I regularly needed to go to Khan Academy videos to fill in the gaps this course has.

Not very good. Had to use YouTube as I had no knowledge of Python. Needs to have more examples and walk you through Python to be able to understand.

It teaches simple math, very briefly,

and make test that needs Python and other Math basic knowledges.

It isn't kind for beginner!

In lesson about vectors (first lesson in this course) teacher is talking about gause distribution and other difficult things

No practical example. Like University hard mathematics lecture. This course content does not relate to the course title.

There are a lot of problems in lab and we cannot submit our assignment just a waste of waste

Concepts were not well explained, and understanding Python is a requirement.
