Kursteilnehmer-Bewertung und -Feedback für Introduction to Genomic Technologies von Johns Hopkins University

Informative. Nice, low commitment class to provide some background to genomic technologies.

Very nice basic course

Nice introductory course for those who are new to the interdisciplinary field of bioinformatics. However, experienced users could also skip this course and go straight to the next ones.

Awesome. Great course to start your journey in bioinformatics

I'm fascinated by bioinformatics and genomics, which is why I took this course. I gave the course four stars instead of 5 because I think the flow of the lectures could have been better. When watching lectures, I often found myself jumping around in my notebook to write something down. Other than that, the course was an excellent introduction.

The course is a good introduction into genomic data science, I disliked last week because teacher gave too many unnecessary information. But overall it is great course for Computer Scientists especially.

Great introductory overview. I particularly enjoyed the summary of the human genome project.

it is very good but needs some more explanation and supportive materials other than videos to get more knowledge

Comprehensive cover of the basics.

simple but important descriptions about genomic data science.

Its called an introduction to genomic technologies and that is basically what it is.

It is very nice course to learn new things.

Time of each video is limited, so lots of content are just mentioned without going deeper. Just a introductory course.

The entire course took me about 8 hours to complete. The videos are on average around 10 minutes long. The first two weeks of the course were very introductory and had they stayed that way I would have been disappointed (however they were focused on my specialization). Week 3 and 4 made it worth it for me and were very helpful (computing technology and statistics). I thought the course project could have been better. I didn't feel it was a strong overview of what I learned about the course. Either way, I'm glad I went through the entire thing.

nice! Stats review particularly

a great way to start.

It is very useful who are interested in Genomics and overall computational biology.

Though the content is introductory and general concepts, it could have been done in a slower pace and a little bit more detail.

Overall a good intro course. Molecular biology basics were covered so quickly and with terms and concepts pulled almost out of thin air, anyone without a pretty substantial background would probably be lost fairly quickly. And those of us with a genetics background fairly bored until we got to the later weeks. Still as a course designed to get everyone on the same page for the rest of the Specialization, I feel ready for the next course.

This course lays out the foundation for the rest of the Specialization. The course feels a little light on content but the concepts it does cover are well described.

Buen curso introductorio a las nuevas tecnologias genomicas.

Good Introduction!!!

Better organization on the biological component is needed to be clearer in the definitions

The first three weeks were too easy, then Jeff Leek introduced a bunch of Statistical Concepts at once. I think I would rather have spent more time taking an overview of the field and what the certificate has to offer in application to my job as a biologist/learning bioinformatics.

The project at the end reminded me of evaluating scientific papers in college. Very useful, but out of context I thought. I think I would like to have more of a refresher in certain concepts in advanced genetics prior to being quizzed on them through a project.

Overall, it was a good course, but someone without a background in biology will certainly struggle with it

Interesting topic, maybe an improvement could be to provide the material as one file and not many files one for each video (also easier to consult in the future).
