My experience with the producers of this course series is that the narration and explanations are very good, but no solutions are provided to assignments. Some items such as links to software, no longer work--indicating that little maintenance if any is being done for the course any longer.

videos are not very informative. If you've been exposed to putty at all, so far there isn't anything that someone wouldn't already know,

Not happy as complete noob about the way the concepts are explained and why some tools are used. Pacing sometimes too slow sometimes missing step or info
