Lack of practical examples of agile. Too many theory and memorization.

By Supakrit B on 30-Apr-18

This course is good for learning an overview of agile processes. However, it does not make you ready for executing these processes in actual environment. In my opinion, this course lacks case studies that allow student to link the model to the real-world problem, making it hard to understand which model should we apply in which situation.

Lecture presentation is very very robotic. It's hard to follow the lecture without proper diagrams or examples.

The lecture just reads books.

By Neal K on 27-Nov-18

Huge waste of time....course covers nothing substantive. It takes a very interesting subject, software product management, and transforms it into the world's most boring thing. Not to mention, the content itself - pretty useless, in my opinion. Come on Coursera and U of A - I expected better from both of you!
