The create a blog course was really fascinating and informative. I learnt a great deal and I was able to set up my own blog. I would definitely recommend my friends to do courses with coursera .

Best learning platform to grow more and more. The best part is we have to give exams to clear its certification criteria so with skills we get a valid certificate with proper examination

Ugh. Sorry! This Project seemed like such a great idea, and perfect for me right now to get started on a blog in between classes. Two hours and I'd have my WordPress up and running and ready to go! Did it seem too good to be true? No because in my experience Coursera DOES DELIVER!! But not this time. I have wasted my entire day trying to get on with this project. First Tech issues -- but they are forgivable. And the Support at Coursera are also very good so I spoke with them about it. Tried a different browser. Stil no joy but ok -- I found away around it and persevered. Next, the instructor's screen is completely and consistently out of synch with the USER screen -- which meant only one thing for me -- that the course was designed and delivered a while back and Word Press have changed their layouts, and navigations..... so that made following tricky. Third, the screens are WAY TOO SMALL and actually not at all clear so it was difficult enough to follow but visibility was quite POOR trying to keep both screens open on the page. I decided that I have enough no how to go onto wordpress and try to pick up where I left off.... And WordPress had not got my details saved from what I"d set up on the project. That confused me!! No progress made at all today. Back to square one -- quite frustrated. That did not work at all for me. Disheartened by this offer. Thanks for the idea, but please update and upgrade this offer or take it off the menu.

rhyme window is too small cannot follow the instructions fully as sometimes the instructor will press a link or whichever and I cannot follow because my own window is too small. I cannot read my texts,etc.

I don't even want to finish this course. My screen looks nothing like the instructor's and I don't have half the things showed in her screen. This is frustrating. I don't want to continue this project.

While the instructions seemed clear, the UI didn't match what was on my screen, making it very difficult and frustrating to follow along in some parts. I didn't bother trying to finish the course.

This is out of date and does not match the current Wordpress site navigiation. It's also very amateur in regards to the sound recording and performance.

The instructor used a different version of WordPress which made it difficult to follow. The instructor also seemed unsure of the content being taught.

outdated and just shows you how to edit a template rather than actually create a site from scratch

Should improve the third party platform. The screen in user end is too short and invisible.

Not useful

Very flat delivery, not well organized (no scaffolding of content, no explanation of the "why", just a series of steps.) To improve I would show a finished product, and then show the steps to build it - you could then break out each piece of the finished page *first* and show how it was put together. I would not recommend.
