I found that the course wasn’t as well structured as I had expected. This became clear once I started taking notes and realized it was quite difficult to identify a logical flow or to group the information in a meaningful way. The material often felt fragmented, which made it harder to see how different concepts connect to each other. Another aspect that stood out to me was the format of the lessons. Most of the course consists of static slides or images accompanied by a rather impersonal voiceover. In previous courses, we had instructors who appeared on screen or interacted directly with the learners, explaining concepts in a more dynamic and engaging way. That personal interaction made a big difference in maintaining attention and motivation, and I really missed that here. Additionally, the examples provided throughout the course tend to be quite long and sometimes difficult to follow. While detailed examples can be useful, in this case they often felt overwhelming, and it was hard to extract the key ideas or practical takeaways. Breaking them into smaller, clearer parts or providing summaries after each example might make the content much easier to digest. Overall, I appreciate the effort that went into creating the course, but I think it could be significantly improved by refining its structure, increasing human interaction, and making the examples more concise and focused.

Great content but I found it less clear that other modules. The explanations of Tree of Thought and Chain of Thought prompting was confusing and I didn't find it was as thorough as other content. I had to go through that content multiple times and still feel I am lacking in my understanding. Additionally, the labs for those concepts were problematic. I was never able to see the "expert" thinking in the Tree of Thought method; I copied the prompts from the lab text but the system took me in a completely different direction. As a result, i don't feel i grasp these concepts as well as others. Thanks for listening. :)

Para quem não é falante da lingua inglesa a experiência do curso fica muito comprometida. A impressão q se tem é q este curso não foi pensado para este publico apenas dispobililizado tradução basica de parte do curso. Caso tenham interessa em faze-lo teria muito prazer em dar um feedback completo.

Good overview on basic skills. Some of the narrated material is difficult to follow. Thankfully, the transcript provides clarity. Additionally, parts of the content seem to be auto-generated, evidenced by the presence of arbitrary abbreviations that are unrelated to the respective passages.

Interesante y muy bueno, el problema es que el laboratorio, a la hora de ingresar las instrucciones son en inglés. Cosa que dificulta el aprendizaje en el laboratorio para el publico hispanohablante.

El curso debe reestructurarse y tener opciones mas amplias de acuerdo al perfil del estudiante dónde debe incluir herramientas didácticas y el nivel de manejo de cada uno de los participantes.

It's ok for a quick basic overview, but they could explain more instead of showing just examples. The example most obvious was the 'weighted' terms syntax in text-to-image generation

Too superficial and some times incorrectly present the topic, leading to confusion in the concepts. This course should have been a summary of this: https://www.promptingguide.ai/

Los ejercicios de validación son poco prácticos, no son fáciles de ejecutar y siento que generan poco valor para mi rol. deberían ser mas interactivos y menos tecnicos.
