This course is a excellent introduction to social network analysis. Learnt a lot about how social network works. Anyone learning Machine Learning and AI should definitely take this course. It's good.

It was an easy introductory course that is well structured and well explained. Took me roughly a weekend and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope the professor follows up with more advanced material.

This was, in general, a good course. The instructor was very clear in what he presented, and gave a good overview of Social Network Analysis. However, there were several issues with the AutoGrader that did not get fixed until late in the course and the PowerPoint slides for the lectures were also very late in getting posted (they were not available for most of the programming assignments). So, I think this course was launched a little early. Still, these are problems that you might expect to see the first time a course is taught and should not affect future students.
The bigger complaint I have on the course was that it was a very gentle introduction of the topic with only a quick overview of the subject. The lectures themselves concentrated more on a litany of various measures and metrics to characterize networks and could have benefited from a broader examination of real networks in the real world. One of the most interesting topics was a very quick overview of plotting for network diagrams, but this was never followed up with a programming assignment or other aspects to give us practice using the techniques described. This course would benefit from 2-4 additional weeks of material and more programming assignments, IMO. The network graphing lecture, for example, could have been reinforced with a peer-graded assignment to have us produce 3 or 4 types of graphs of various networks.
Overall, though, I was pleased with this course and the entire specialization. I would definitely recommend it to others.
