Some lectures are not in the right order. Lectures also use the same file but from lecture to lecture there are some changes made without explanation. So if you practice and make changes to files (resources) as lectures go on, the result will be different. Some lectures use partial modifications on files, your "updated/modified" file from the last lecture will not me useful for the next lecture.

Course content was nice and clear but I would have preferred to receive the exact files used in the course to follow along better. The downloadable templates were only sufficient for certain parts of the course. It would also be preferred if the course followed a single project throughout the course. This would more clearly show all the program capabilities, how to achieve the goal in different ways, and would help show a start to finish approach.

conocer varios detalles de la herramienta de microsoft poject, para algunas secciones es importante ser muy observadora porque no son secuenciales por lo que es necesario ver que ha cambiado de la hoja de trabajo del video que se est visualizando
