This course is a good checkpoint to evaluate our understanding of the previous courses. The assignment had some challenges, but after revising the materials, it was successfully completed. Thank you.

Lab works became more challenging and difficult throughout end of the course. Some tasks I've spent more than week just to find out the mistake. It is quite challenging yet fulfilling at the same time

This course could've been better. I'm not sure whether to give this course a 2 stars or 3 stars.
I appreciate that there's an extra week to complete this course as there's only one week in this course, because if I haven't, I probably wouldn't submit the work in time.
Just like the previous course, I think we need a more in-depth understanding how to use Beautiful Soup because this is pretty hard to understand as this is not very well explained in my opinion, it sort of felt rushed. Also worth noting that append function would be removed in the future version of python and use pandas concat method instead, I couldn't get concat to properly work, and no video or labs covered the pandas concat function.
Another issue I had with this course is that if you have to post a forum to answer your question/solving a problem you have, you'll have to wait for hours if not a day for a response, maybe it's because of time zones, I'm not entirely sure. No disrespect to the staffs/moderators or throw anyone under the bus, I do understand that they're busy in other stuff other than monitor the forums and address questions, concerns, or problems. but I do believe quicker response for learners would benefit learner partaking this course or any courses down the line.
Overall, it's not a terrible course, nor a great course. It is in between.

After doing several of the other courses in the IBM Data Science Specialization, this course was poorly put together.
The videos were of low quality, could barely read what was on the screen. If it was not for the written script of what was said, then I would not have followed along.
The ideas presented seemed to be constantly jumping around. Mentioning on idea, bounce to another, then bounce back.
The labs were put together well, and were essentially a hands on version of the videos. But organized.
It appears that a different person put together the labs compared to who was in charge of the visual learning.
As for the project: it was a decently easy assignment. I have jumped around in my courses, so I may have had other exposure and experience than others normally would at this point in the series.
A decent course overall. Great introduction to web scraping.

3 stars--this class is not for beginners, repeat not for beginners and should not be included 1/2 way through this certification course. This is a class that needs to be moved to the end of the certification courses, where you understand about working with tags and attributes and know how to look up libraries. You need to inherently understand more than a brief introduction into some principals of Python. It's rated at "only taking about 3 hours", I spent 3 hours just researching how to get a table to populate because the labs don't tell you how to work with classes in HTML, nor how to write a loop to populate one. This is an middle of the road intermediate class, not a beginner one. If you are in this certificate and new to python and programming....wait until the end before completing it, I'm sure it will make a whole lot more sense.
