Comprehensive but could be presented better - presentation slides are poor, overall organisation is not well thought out. Typos and errors throughout material including in tests.

It really seems like this lecturer is mailing it in. There is typically an 8 minute video and then 45 minutes worth of reading much of which is not that relevant. The tests are simply regurgitations of quotes from the lecture with no real understanding fo the work. They also don't provide valuable feedback on why an answer is right or wrong often simply saying, no, that is wrong. The courses by more professional lecturers are more well thought out and valuable.

Este curso tiene un nivel de complejidad mucho más alto que los anteriores, las lecturas son bastante extensas y es bastante dificil entender correctamente el contexto de lo que tratan.

Didn't like the way it was structured. A bit of mess, a cocktail of subjects without much direction

Course should be more thorough. Instructor should teach instead of giving link to material

I recently completed the "Scrum Master Certification: Scaling Agile and the Team-of-Teams" course, and I must admit that my overall experience was disappointing. The course title suggested a comprehensive exploration of Scrum and Agile methodologies, but the reality was far from what I expected.

My primary concern lies in the course's restricted focus solely on software development. As a non-engineer seeking to broaden my understanding of Agile methods for application across various industries, I found myself sorely let down. The course materials, lectures, and exercises were overwhelmingly skewed towards software development, leaving little room for insights into the broader scope of Agile principles and practices.

One of the core principles of Agile is adaptability, the ability to apply Agile practices beyond the realm of coding and programming. Unfortunately, this principle seemed to be forgotten in this course. The lack of attention to how Agile can be applied in diverse industries, such as manufacturing, marketing, or even project management itself, left me feeling frustrated and shortchanged.

The course content heavily emphasized software engineering jargon and methodologies that, as a non-technical individual, I struggled to relate to. Terms like "bent metal" and discussions about software integration only served to alienate those of us without a background in engineering.

Moreover, the promise of learning about the "Team-of-Teams" concept sounded intriguing, but the course failed to adequately explore its potential in non-technical contexts. It's disheartening that the course did not fulfill its commitment to provide a broader understanding of Agile and Scrum methodologies.

I understand the importance of specialization, but a course marketed as "Scrum Master Certification" should have taken into account the diverse range of professionals interested in learning about Agile practices. This limited focus did a disservice to the concept of Agile itself, which is rooted in adaptability and collaboration across various disciplines.

Seriously, do not waste your time in this course. Only take this course if you want to have a badge or something for your curriculum if you have no experience. But you will not become anything close to a Scrum Master. It is a BAD presentation of slides and the instructor is just winging it. It is annoying and ridiculous the amount of aahh, mmm, so, again, the presenter uses. He might have known the subject at one time, but he doesn't show it now; he is a bad teacher and not a good speaker. Also, compared to other courses, it is obvious that it is a one-man job. Nobody checked the quality of the content or the presentation. No user input was accounted for, and no expert reviewed the structure or content so as to give him some early feedback. That is ironic, since that is central to Agile methodology. It is obvious he did not treat this course as a project.

It is made up a a few videos (you never get to see the instructor) of slides, and then there are 2-3 readings from Wikipedia or other sites. Some of the readings are very good, but others are very biased since the site is trying to sell you something. Also, some of the readings he links to, are dead links. The content is very low quality, shallow and badly presented. You can get more value from researching by yourself. The “practical” examples and assignments are so lame, that they add zero to the course. They are a joke.

This review may sound too harsh. Maybe it is so because I finished the Google Project Management Certificate and I am comparing it to that. That course sets the bar very high. But in any case, you can find MUCH better content in YT that clearly shows the presenter's dominance of the subject.

The content of Scaling Agile and the Team-of-Teams appears to be overly IT-centric and could have been presented in a more general context. It delved into many studies related to software and hardware development, which demanded a separate knowledge base. Some of the links and information appeared to be outdated and may have been associated with specific software providers.

The course material was lazily put together without care, deliberation, and thought. Most of the course information were external links, some of which were broken. It's almost as if the course author gave up when writing course 3, because he totally skipped over the exposition and instead copy pasted his info from the interwebz.

I have taken over 10 Coursera online courses but this is the worst taught course I have encountered. The lecturer or tutor taught so poorly as if he is tired or forced to lecture. Poor delivery at its highest, regretably!
