What people are saying
wind energy
I would recommend this course to everyone interested in the wind energy sector.
The course is very extensive and gives a very deep insight into wind energy assessment but sometimes the data for the quizzes is not that clear.
In summary, I would recommend this course to all who want a basic introduction to the field of wind energy.
Especially after several failed attempts on quiz, there should be some guide on how to answer, just as in the WIND ENERGY course.All the same, i have gained a lot from this course, even though i have not being able to answer only one question to get my certificate.
But, I would say give it a try if you are interested in wind energy, it would worth your time and effort.

quiz questions
Quiz questions and answers are quite badly formulated.
The topics of the wind power plant are very deeply taught but the quiz questions are very complex and conceptual.
Multiple quiz questions have answers not discussed during the course.

very interesting
If you could add real examples in and good flow of information, that would be very interesting to students.
The project was quite hard but very very interesting.

resource assessment
I found this course very interesting to gain insight into the fundamental concepts of wind analysis and resource assessment.
For example, for the wind resource assessment project the data should be given in an excel file rather than a .txt file as it created a lot of problem in analyzing the data.

make it
But i will wish more clarity is given in the questions to make it more understandable as English might not be the first language of us all.Again, i suggest more specific reference materials or sources be included.
Also there are some maths typos in the slides in some lectures that make it difficult to get into the subject, and I'm almost sure that some of the answers in one of the last quizzes are wrong - but no way to figure it out, since no feedback is provided anyway.
And just to make it interesting, I'm fairly sure there's a few errors in there too.
An advanced excel user might just be able to make it,One more thing, the time estimates are very ambitious.

final project
Very Tough I am rating this course five star based on the skills I have got by completing the final project.
The final project of this course requires a lot of time investment and you need to have a data analysis skills to complete it.
