The course features bad advice. For example, it says that reducing email response time by 20% is a good project goal, it is not, using that as a project goal would mean that if you reduced it by 19% the project has failed and if you reduced it by 20% by the deadline but it went back up after you finished the project, the project "succeeded" but nothing has actually improved.

Another example of bad advice from this course is the recommendation that no matter what the project manager should not accept any scope changes from team members. This is profoundly unrealistic, in the real world you will never predict all aspects of the project correctly and if you never accept changes to the project that your team recommends based on new discoveries they came across while working on it, you will 1) alienate your team 2) produce a product that includes features that do not make sense or work poorly because you ignored empiricism and went with your initial guesses instead.

1. 1-5 courses where is mostly water - you have to squeeze it very well to identify a piece of meaningful information. Very diluted, like women soap romance book. 2. No quality control. No real teachers are available in this course - considering it as a shame! I never heard that students are forced to grade each other in any reputable educational institution! That annihilate any educational purpose. Where has this been seen in any reputable educational institution? You can only imagine the content of those tests! There are mostly "Help me through" with no tests at all. Some people simply copy the given material and present it for "peer grading", hope that other people will give them "pass". Shame, nowhere only here, in Coursera you can observe this pattern. Conclusion: Coursera and all companies presented here by Coursera don't really care about education quality and quality personnel, so the purpose is simply clipping monthly money. Sad...

Look i am not an auditory or a reading learner. i learn mainky through hands on. there are parts of this course that i found were not quite well enough explained to where i felt comfortable doing some of these assignments. Defining the smart goals for one is an area yall need to expand upon. I had no idea what to look for in order to take a non smart goal and turn it into a smart goal. Just giving people definitions and saying okay so sink or swim is no way top teach people. If yall would have taken the time to do a couple of practice that you would work on with the llady yall have in the videos it would be of the greatest help to learners like me. ( repition is the father of learning, so to is practice). The lady doing the videos is extremely hard to hear even with the volume turned up to its maximum.(i am even using in ear headphones newly purchased)

I understand why peer review tasks would sound like a good idea, and to some extent they are. But when I have completed the whole course and all other task and have to wait an unknown amount of time to get a review so that I can complete the course, then it starts to lose its purpose. A sugestion, make it so that it is an extra optional task with potential points for the final grade. Because as it sits now even though I have completed all the other tasks I am forced to wait an unknown amount of time to get my review, this just lowers my motivation and degrades the sence of achievment and gratification you get from completing the course.

This is a great course BUT peer-review is not a great vehicle for accurate or consistent grading. I know it may seem like it is nice to have peers check things together, but forcing peer review slows the process down immeasurably and creates an inconsistency in the potential for grading. Maybe you just have a mean reviewer that doesn't read it. Maybe you have a nice reviewer that just doesn't read it. Maybe you have someone that doesn't actually know how to find and review. It's much too subjective. I've worked in education for 10 years now and you can't use peer-review like this in an online format.

I hated the peer graded assignment. I had to resubmit my assignment three times, and it was the same submission all three times. My assignment met all of the requirements as outlined in the rubric, and I had peers failing me with no reason given. These peers that failed me would comment, "congrats" or "good job." It seemed like there was a language barrier on their end, and they couldn't understand how to grade the assignments properly, as a result, I had to take days resubmitting and waiting. Coursera needs to look into this and have an option to dispute or report improper grading.

I find this course hard to navigate. I've submitted my Project Charter assignment many times and havent recieved an adequate response. The student review is very troubling because response was very negative and I thought that was forbidden plus I couldnt see my submission so I had no idea what to look for.

I dont like the way Coursera has formatted this course. It will say not completed then when I go to the page I see that I have already completed the assignment.

I want to cancel my subscription and cannot seem to find where that is either.

Not happy.

This was a good course - lots of activities - what I didn't like is that the discussion prompts said "optional", however the course would not be marked complete without them. While there are graded peer responses, the optional quetsions about my personal life should not be required. The 1st course, they were not. This course made them mandatory - but I did not know that until the complete end when I was trying to move on to course #3.

The course is very good but I am not fully convinced with the "signature on the certificate". It will look formal when there is a signature (at least digital) with the name and position of the signing responsible. Having only Google don't look very formal and probe to fake certificates. I am afraid, my certificate will be questioned by the interviewer even though there is a coursera number. Please consider, thanks.

I don't know how you made such easy consepts so overly complicated. The way you organize the information your teaching was infuriating. I'm embarressed that I told my mom to try out this course after completeing course 1. It took all of my will power not to quit the course entirerly. I can't be the only person who feels this upset with this learnign experiance.

The quizzes are extremely frustrating because of the ambiguity of their wording. I have had an answer be wrong but when I compare the result to my notes the answer I provide is completely right. Or vice versa I place an answer I believe is wrong and in my notes even is only somewhat right and then that is the right answer, extremely irritating.

I think this course could be shorter. The volume of information is not so complex as to stretch it for a long time.

If you are not a beginner and not a schoolboy, you will be surprised that you are taught how to use Excel.

Although the course contains useful information (links and examples of using tools).

I have submitted an assignment in week 2 of Course 2 and still have not received a grade. I have submitted it via attachment and google docs. Still have not received a grade or certification although the course is done and I'm on the next course now.

Lecturer's poor pronunciation and presentation skills were distracting. Also the peer grading process is poorly implemented. You may need to wait for weeks for your submission to be graded... there's got to be a better way!

para poder obtener mi diploma me dicen que valide mi identidad me llega mensaje a mi celular y cuando trato de activar la camara no funciona? cómo puedo resolver esta situación y así generar mi diploma. gracias

It is a promotion for Google. I did not get to finish my studies. I am working full time. I am a single mom and the course cut off before I could complete it even though I was meeting the deadlines.

The content is good, complete and useful, but the presenter and her way of speaking are completely boring and confusing. Sometimes she doesn't even bearable and you should avoid watching videos

The idea of peer grading is really a horrible concept. You aren't able to move forward without others grading your work, which could take up to 7 days....greatly delaying your progress.
