Great fun, especially the actor and director interviews! Wish I could have gotten quizzes graded without paying$!
The course itself is great, however it fails on the activities where we need to evaluate colleagues and receive this evaluation. There is no evaluation available on time.
I had a very good experience learning with Coursera
was extremely helpful. had best learning experience from the course.
