Agile Meets Design Thinking

I really enjoyed the linkage between design thinking and Agile.

great course for all Very informative course that helps you get into a design thinking mindset at a comfortable pace.

Amazing idea to incorporate design thinking into product development.

The knowledge and understanding of Design Thinking and the simplicity that it was presented and connected with Agile was truly remarkable.Would definitely recommend it.

this course is attending my spectations,and it's helping me to make rigth some concepts I was doing in the worng way although this is my first time in learning about Design thinking, I'm happy to say that I love the way Coursera put together the specialization.

for instance I got to here about the importance of instrumenting observation at the design and experimentation stage of a product and releasing in small batches as way of achieving expected outcome.I look forward to more opportunities to learn more about Design Thinking under Coursera and her partner institutions.Thank you I thought the course was very informative and a great foundation for the new few courses I plan to take.

The course contains lots of useful, relevant and well-structured information related to Agile practices and Design Thinking.

IT bridges between Design Thinking and Agile.

If you ever want to have certainty over the market direction of your product,Agile Meets Design thinking might not be the only but is the best way to go.Thumbs up to the organizers of the course, it was not only well taught and delivered but fun and engaging.

I suggest having a new product / business in mind then taking the course as a step by step guide to design thinking your problem through vs the alternative (inferior) ways of launching!

The instructor doesn't make a proper intro into agile frameworks and processes and you cannot really understand in which part of the puzzle the design thinking fits in.

If I didn't have basic knowledge on agile development methodologies I wouldn't really understand at what step and how should I apply the design thinking.Other confusing thing was the presentation itself.

Great course, it explains the basic Agile concepts and clarifies how to create good user stories.

User Stories is most valuable part.

Good introduction, goes deep enough with good examples gdg great course Great course to practice about user stories and personas Fantastic course.

This class gives me the tools to build out messaging and campaigns on the various personas and user stories.

All fit for purpose software applications start with perfecting the user stories Not of much relevant for people who already know little agile.

learnt a lot of new software testing tools and methods Its a good course but little more examples and description on User stories, Storyboard would have been helpful.

Fun and extremely focussed on user stories!

It has a lot of useful information about Building persona and user stories.

Also, it give good insights as to how to write effective user stories and related test cases.

Very useful tools and artifacts to improve user stories and test cases.

This course structured my understanding of User stories and approaches how to identify and describe personas and use them for creating User stories.

It was a bit hard for to concentrate on topis, because the tutor uses too much general words and adjectives This course brings you the skills to carry your ideas to match correctly the user and customer needs, with very strong user feedback by creating user stories, test cases, child stories is a very structured method.

I would recommend this course to anyone who is serious about Agile.

I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in Agile or IT development in general.

Really nice course to begin with but better to go through all the specialization to get a broader idea of the connection between Agile and Design.

Content is great and form perfect for a deep glimpse into Agile and Design thinking.

A very well structured course that enabled me to get the deep dive into what is agile and design thinking.

instructional and good interface of skills by creating personas and user stories but some of curriculum was repetitive and predicated on venture design and not necessarily how agile and design thinking intertwine Great course!

Thank You so much Alex for designing such a wonderful course!!

Thank you so much!

It also showed me how hard some of the topics can be and that need so much thinking than just watching the video and saying that `yeah, it is straightforward!` cause it is not that straightforward and one need to spend the time to think over these topics and practice.The only thing that I don`t like much is that the assignments are also peer graded.

This course give so much knowledge on building solid foundation on creating great product/project.

Really enjoyed the pacing, detail of lectures and complexity of assignments.

Inspiring Alex Cowan helped me to understand core value of Agile.

I liked the course, it was good, and really prepared me for the user story portion.
