The Swirl practice part is great! But there is a big gap between what we learned from video/swirl and the course project! The project is much harder than what I learn from the course.

This course is amazing! I have spent the majority of my time in R merely doing analytics. This course taught me the tools needed to go out and grab the data that I need for those analytics.

Description of assignment questions is not clear. The expected answer from the questions are confusing.

The peer grading looks weird. I got a comment on my original work "seemed to be not written by me".

final project is terribly defined. Lecturers, Coursera, and Johns Hopkins should all be ashamed.

Very scattered and unfocused course. Sad to say that I learned very little from this one.
