Software practitioners have used modeling languages for decades to specify, visualize, construct, and document systems. UML which stands for The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is one of those languages and today UML is the most used standard modeling language for software and systems development. Even though not everyone need to write UML diagrams , Most software practitioners, if not all of them, need to interpret and read diagrams written by others.

UML is used to express software or system requirements, architecture, and design. After taking this course. UML will make it easy for you to communicate technical matters with other developers, analysts, designers, testers and even your clients. So it improve your ability to communicate with others and will also improve your team productivity as it will be easier to use UML to express complicated technical matters with others in much less time.

In this course, I talk about all the different UML diagrams Use cases, class diagrams, sequence diagrams, activity diagram and more. I will talk about each of them in detail. You will learn how to read and comprehend any UML diagram and you also learn the important guidelines to build them provided by subject matter experts. We will have workshops to read and build diagrams together. All these can be achieved with little effort just by watching this course.

In this course, we will learn by example, starting by quickly demonstrate some the notations of a diagram then explain in detail the variations of each of those notations. Then will introduce more notations and then discuss them and so on.

When done learning how to read any diagram, We will explain how to build diagrams using those notations and the guidelines that we should follow to use each notations.

Join this course now and I promise that you will be able to read any UML diagram and build neat , quality UML diagrams in no time

Content and explnation is great, but delivery is not up to the mark, may be I have problem with accent of instructor.

Perhaps the course is too repetitive, redundant - many times the guidelines already mentioned are repeated. I understand it is fine to summarise again certain concepts, but not the whole step by step details again and again. For the sake of time and duration, maybe it would be better to have a solid summary first, and have a shorter and engaging course later. Section 6 was the most repetitive, while the following ones were much more interesting and important for my job.

Hi there! Generally, it is a good course. I recommend it to beginners - as me. More engaging quizes it would have - not only theory. Sometimes it has a little to much repetitions and is a little too fast. I do recommend, to write down most important sentences, after each lesson, because it helps to retain topics in memory. Beside, it make easier to get used to that specific slang related to diagrams.

Good course! I recommend it to newbies. Small and precise. More engaging exercises would have made it even better.

I personally found this course to be a solid review of the UML modelling language, the various UML models and how, why and where they are used. The two case studies added to the value of the course by grounding a lot of the theory in real-world scenarios. Thank you!

Not all was relevant (as I expected) but it was a good overview. I would have liked to have videos discussing the excercises and maybe multiple choice questions as exercises where all options are explained why and why not they applied.

animations are a little slow. it's annoying to have the company logo at the end of each video with the sound effect.

As a software developer, I believe that code documentation is important. What is amazing is that I have had instances where I was hired back to a previous employer because they found my documentation reliable.

Este foarte potrivit, pentru ca am citit intre timp materiale despre definitiile principalelor diagrama, clasificari etc si metoda de predare aleasa (prin exemplificare) nu putea fi mai potrivita decat atat.

very nice course but I need the relation between two diagrams or how to extract the one diagram from other one.

Only about 15 minutes in and this course is exactly what I was hoping for. Instructor is very thorough and I like that he has international experience. I’m adjusting to his accent.

Take what you need from the course. Not everything is applicable, there is more than one great way to represent whatever you want to represent. The UML notation is great, but you don't have to follow it religiously. The author is great at emphasising all these aspects, which make the course more applicable in the real world.

I am very satisfied with this course. Everything is explained well and to the point. There are very good examples and resources that help you to use the information in real life projects. Already after watching half the course, I was able to put my new Skills to use. I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to pick up, or improve their UML skills!
