Welcome! You may have heard about the Internet of Things (IoT). But you may also have wondered about what it is. Or for that matter, what does it mean to you or an organization. This course is for you if you are curious about the most recent trends and activities in the internet capabilities and concerns about programmed devices. There are complexities and areas of necessary awareness when the industrial sector becomes connected to your home. Security policies and practices have not yet caught up to the internet capabilities of some of our most common products. The “connected home”, “consumer wearables”, or even an employee’s HVAC system may cause an unanticipated threat to your business environment.
You will explore current security and privacy related concerns in each of these areas. Every module will include readings, videos, case studies, and a quiz to help make sure you understand the material and concepts we talk about. This course offers a place to learn, reflect, and plan for a smart community approach to IoT. Portions of this course may seem extremely technical in nature. That is because the “things” in IoT represents engineering. Try to grasp the concept in that case.

It was okay to experience the course online, but some of the module and quiz questions and answers didn't display properly, so selection was not visible to answer.

I find it very strange that adding together a few PDF's classifies as a course.
There are no interesting assignments, the amount of video content is low and you're left with almost only reading assignments.
This course is very general and should be taken only if you know absolutely nothing about IoT and you don't want any video lectures.

This course presents a comprehensive introduction to IoT in general, covering the various enabling and limiting technologies. While issues surrounding privacy and security are discussed, it was at an introductory level.
It has provided me with an excellent foundation in IoT technologies and applications which I can now build on.

This piece of course is really helped me what are the merits and demerits of using IoT in our day to day life. It helped me gain a lot of knowledge about different types of sensors. As an instrumentation it will definitely useful for me in my upcoming academic years and also for my project works too.

The "course" was mainly a compilation of web articles with quiz questions on those articles. There was little if any actual instruction. Further, IoT is a rapidly evolving technology yet most of the articles are from 2014-2016, so the course really needs to be updated. Last, several of the hyperlinks to the blogs wouldn't go to the actual blog post, just the main page and I could never find the actual article because they didn't give the title or date so I couldn't read them. That said, I did learn some things about IoT.

The sound before and after every video is very annoying and also the sound of changing a slide and clicking on something in the video, the overall sound actually.
The main problem is, the number of video content is very low. Most of the content here is reading. Going through a paper is very much time consuming and boring. To pass the test, we had to go through those papers line by line. It's very much boring. I don't think it's the perfect way of learning something. people will loss interest.

Thoroughly enjoyed this course, I found the content and the range of different assignments very appealing. I also liked the weekly deadlines, without those it's unlikely I'd have got through the course so quickly. Thanks for everyone who have been involved in designing this course!

This course actually works unlike Cybersecurity and the X-Factor which doesn't allow any of free audit level users to submit any of the written assignments. Additionally I passed the first quiz the first time just like this course but screw the University System of Georgia.
