How Computers Work

Dr Marco is an enthusiastic, animated, and fun instructor. The course is laid out well and pace is nice. Highly recommended course for everyone who wants to learn more about abstract concepts about computer science.

It was great

A great course. Although I have come from a background in website development, I still picked up many useful tips and information about the fundamentals of computers and how they work.

This is a very fun way to learn at basic concepts for Computer Science which we can apply in our daily life.Although this is an introductory course, it gives a glimpse of more complex and interesting topics which are key to computers and the way we interact with them.

Very good course as an introduction to computing. Could stand to be more challenging, but the material is certainly easy enough for a true beginner.

I loved the way the instructor explained it. Straight to the point and easy to understand.

It is informative and very well explained.

Great course!!

An excellent and accessible course for the layperson that encourages broad understanding of the concepts behind rather complicated aspects of the modern use of computers, as well as the computer itself. A good footing for further investigations into the mechanics and theory of computing.

Very well thought out and structured lecture, even though I work in IT, I learnt a few new concepts which will be helpful in day to day work.

A very concise explanation of how a computer works

Very informative and fun course to take! However there is too much dependence on peer-submission. It shouldn’t be in other peoples’ hands if you can complete an assignment or not. I had to wait a long time and beg for reviews in the discussion area, even though I submitted the assignment on time. I think that is frankly unfair, especially if you pay to access course content.
