Comentários e feedback de alunos de Data Science Methodology da instituição IBM

Way too theoretical.

Boring

In this course they will present you a Moron: John Rollins. They will present its methodology because he said so, "data science needs a methodology", even if it's the same methodology that statisticians and whoever works with data utilize since the beginning of time (just add Python and SQL), just presented in a redundant manner so that it seems new, well divided in useless general sections where you learn nothing. Just open a book related to applied marketing research and you will see how much has been stolen. Goddamn! Give my money back. And these are the people that work for IBM? These are the people that should teach you something? I don't know, maybe this is what US education looks like and it's really shitty, you get what you pay for and considering you are not taking a mortgage on your house, it's not worthwhile. In short, this course and all the previous ones are for first graders and no one employs first graders. Save your money!

The information presented was cursory and superficial. The case studies generally repeated the content of the lecture portion without sufficient practical content. The speaker droned in a consistently dull monotone.

Suggest more in-depth case studies illustrating the reasoning behind the various choices & decisions made. Suggest a more informative metaphor relevant to a practical, real-life scenario, other than a cooking metaphor.

I would give this course a 1 star because I did learn something. However, the teacher is extremely non engaging and his case study's do not make sense. The course was extremely painful to watch and very boring. He should put more reading materials and find another person to do the voiceover because I was falling asleep!

The videos made are really poor, it doesn't even use markers to explain where in the slides the instructor is teaching about. Also, I think the slides are very poor and most of the images in the slides were pretty unclear. Instructors explanation to problems is also very unclear, it seems that he's reading some script

The course is really theoretical, it uses really bad and iterative examples that does not help to understand the processes and the case studies use really complex code that it is imposible to understand unless you already know coding.

Don't take it. No Course Instructors, no help. Not worth the money...

Even the Working Platform is always timing out or has a gateway error.

Most of the content is in coding and hard to understand. There is no description given with coding so not easy to understand.

Examples in the course are very difficult to understand. Had to google everything that was being taught

Very poorly designed course. None of the labs work! Get ready for frustration if you take this course.

I went over this information in my MS in Data Analytics program. So I didn't learn anything new here.

Veeeeery basic course

No real tasks

Not up-to-date

Feels like 2002 material

No projects

No team work

very bad course, lots of text, irrelevant case study, obsolete approach, irrelevant lab tool

Not very usefull. Its more of a explaining an approach which is only introductory in nature

Uses external application which are not opening, how do we complete the course! Useless

Very hectic and confusing course...it is really from my worst courses till this moment

non useful course u wont understand anything the video is like someone reading papers

Any work that included working on cloud or watson studio is poorly instructed.

VERY BAD COURSE

Very bad instructor

materials were removed

CASE STUDY IS AWFUL

Fairly useless course. Better than Intro to Data Science, but that's it.

Waste of time. Whole course is just a marketing campaign for IBM Cloud.

A bit more concrete example with guided exercise would have helped more

Absolute waste of time. The assessment task were pretty bad as well.

I expected more from IBM, It's mainly boring, please do better
