The case study required to provide detailed answers regarding the analysis, however, the sample cases did not provide much detail that would be adequate to answer some of the test questions (e.g.

case studies
This course would be improved by more meaningful discussion topics (I sometimes skipped these because they didn't feel meaningful), more practice questions or simulations, and more refined case studies (with perhaps some guiding multiple choice before the open-ended final assignment).
Many case studies.-Recommend it to anyone who wants to start with a basic overview and get deeper with more in-depth courses.-If you have limited free time, this course is short!
The only addition/amendments I would recommend is additional visuals/animations to support the underlying framework, some additional case studies to support structured/semi-structred/unstructured data analytic approaches and more interactive questions during the video dialogues.
Apart from the rest, the final course case studies were brilliant and helped us to collaborate our understanding of the course.
Super Course NICE EXPERIENCE A must do for every intending decision maker I really liked the course - it is interactive, very helpful for your daily life and really ap Please add Case Studies in every week.

final project
I would suggest devoting more content in the course to specific types of data, as well as specific data analytics frameworks and techniques.The final project was rather ambiguous as there were little to no guidelines with respect to how to complete it.
And final project is late to wait.

My only complaint is with the final project/peer review system.

final assignment
Peer review is too slow on the final assignment.
This drags out Coursera subscription, and the expectations on how to write the final assignment are not well defined.
I was able to apply things taught over 3 weeks to the final assignment.
Thanks PwC Very engaging and practical, I especially enjoyed the final assignment which enabled me to look back at my notes and course material to really get to grips with it.
The final assignment is real world.
