Personally, I found this course more dense than the previous courses. I would have liked to have seen more visual descriptions of the topics, e.g. cryptography. But other than that, great course :)

Though this course is at the introductory level, it is quite intense. Great tutors, excellent labs and decent extra reading materials.

The teachers were awesome. Some of the labs were faulty and didn't give good explanations, but the information in general was awesome.

a very good course to get your foot in the door and see what fields of IT your interested in and learn a bit about all fields of IT.

Pretty good, in general. I'm taking it for a job I already have, so the parts about getting a job were not relevant at this time.

Very good course. Maybe some more practical examples would be nice, like placement and setup of hardware components in the network

I would like more questions during the course. During the videos so that I can learn better. Atleast one per topic or definition.

Good coverage of material. Important things to understand.
I still found some topics to be confusing, even after re-watching them.

I would strongly recommend, when lecture is being played, show more of the process as animated instead of teacher's appearance.

Could you clarify what you’d like me to review? Are you referring to a specific document, project, or something else?

I feel like some of the other courses in the program were more in-depth than this one but I did learn some new stuff.
