Avoid this course. It starts off promising but quickly unravels. The quality nosedives after module 1 and culminates in a frustrating final assignment. There is no help in the discussion forum. There is no contact to any instructors or administrators. Key topics like ‘metadata’ are scattered across multiple videos, making it hard to backtrace and find the information later when needed. Some content is way outdated, and you’re asked to go check out a website that has been closed for 5 years. The final assignment is a nightmare, especially for beginners. The first two task is using geoprocessing tools that hadn't been demonstrated beforehand. It’s complicated, with instructions written in a confusing disjointed manner. I almost gave up. The peer review process is a joke. I managed to both fail and ace the same assignment. Reviewing others’ work revealed blatant copy-pasting and nonsensical answers, making the whole process feel like a scam. Save yourself the headache and find a better course.

This class needs to updated to account for newer ArcGIS technology. Peer review can be frustrating, as peers have different versions of ArcGIS and cannot open newer ArcGIS documents. Content is not engaging. It would be helpful to have quizzes and activities that directly intersperse with and relate to the lecture versus an hour or so of lecture followed by a quizzes. I do not feel like I was immersed in meaningful learning.

The assigmentes after every lesson was step-by-step conducted, but que final lesson was "do yourself", with diferents topic of the class.

They reprove me, but I have no explanation because the class finish at 31 and today 31 they say I have to switch the course. I fell really cehated and unsatisfy and I will not finish the specialization anymore.

Thos was the worst Cousera course that I did.

It has been impossible to download ArcGIS on our computers and no attention from the creators has been provided by the creators. Definitely do not recommend the course...

I dont think its best to have other students grade the work because they dont always know what they are doing, it would be better to have a professor grade or AI.

Very bad experience i hadNot properly explained about the subject and mainly installation of software

i recommend you that the file you gave to me can not open.so i do for exam or change quiz please.
