Has anyone used Coursera? I'm thinking about studying a data science course on there but not sure if it's worth it.
Discussion
I’ve tried a few courses and had mixed results. If the course is published by a top tier university as a clone of their on campus class it’s highly likely to be very good. Everything else is a crapshoot. While Datacamp isn’t amazing I’m currently using that since it’s about $150 for a whole year on sale, has tons of different courses, and is at least pretty good.
Best of luck!!
I'd never heard of Datacamp. Looks good. Going to look into it more. Cheers!
I have tried multiple online platforms to learn computer science. The first one I took on coursera was Python for everyone which I thought was a legitimate way to learn.
I also started a data science course in coursera but didn’t finish. It wasn’t due to it not being useful but my goals changed and focused my time on a different platform.
All in all, for the relatively low cost, I thought coursera was worth it.
Useful information, thanks!
