Learner Reviews & Feedback for Introduction To Swift Programming by University of Toronto

It needs some updating, but there is still a lot of useful information. It provides a good structure for learning Swift programming.

This is a great starter course, the Reading Materials are a great way to learn directly from the source with a clearer understanding thanks to the videos. Thank you!

This course is good to start with Swift programming in IOS. this had help me a lot, while not having much time to devote. I appreciate this.

If you have prior experience with an OOP language, this course is easy to follow. The only downside is the use of an older XCode / Swift version. I, however, don't think the syntax is that much different between Swift 2.x and 3.x.

it's nice intro to swift, but i recommend that you'd add reading the swift book from apple as people go through the course, even as "to understand more" option, thanks a lot for the course.

This is a well designed course that is clear in what it focuses on to give you a good foundation. That said, there is so much more to learn.

Make sure you look at the final project after each module to get an idea for all the opportunities to apply the optional materials. You can still pass without doing using the concepts in the optional sections but there is time to get even more out of the final project if you prepare and explore.

Good course to learn the Swift basics.

Quite fun, easy and quick.

But I already had some object oriented programming knowledge.

I liked it, everything is well described, clear and helpful.

The last assignment description is not clear. The Peer Review reviewing criteria is not clear as well. It could be understood by many ways. They should enhance the peer review instructions.

Was pretty good overall. I feel there was a lack of in-lecture questions in the first few videos. That aside, great course.

Nice course, with rather fast pace!

Good Course! This class is for people who know how to program (intermediate to advance software programmers)

Good pace, comprehensive introduction to language. Makes it easy to get started learning Swift.

The course is good, but in my opinion, it's too basic for people who are already developers (in platforms other than iOS). Hopefully the next course in the serie will be a little bit deeper.

Hope next courses will be more detailed.

It is hard to understand some things without experience.

Good Course. A bit short but goes straight to the point.

It's very interesting and useful to learn for Swift programming. And through this course, I realized what objective oriented programming is.

Too easy.

Unnecessary with the Swift vs Objective C session, did not provide any value - otherwise fairly good basic course

Solid course with beginner information about swift programming language and some small projects in swift.

The content is absolutely amazing. What I didn't really like was that the last assignment was a curve ball to me and most of the other students in my class. There was very little preparation to it and thus took a while to understand how to get started on it.

A good course for wetting your feet in the world of app development. I'll this course was enjoyable and I learned many practical skills. With that said though, for someone completely new to programming I could see this being tough, and there were a few times instructions were slightly vague. Also with it being an outdated version of swift, switching to the latest version isn't seamless. All in all, I enjoyed the course for what it offered, and would suggest it to any programmer looking to pick up this new language.

A great introductory course to Swift!

Great course first of all.

One problem about the course is probably going to be the lectures. The lectures are explaining fundamental basics in Swift,which are really useful, but they are not comprehensive enough. So for most of the students, I believe, will have to do a lot of self-studying to finish the final project.

But still, the final project is challenging and interesting. Swift is not a hard language to learn, so after went through all the lectures and read some books on Swift programming, I was able to finish the project.

Required things about the swift programming language needed for iOS development is present in this course
