Ironically sad how the app that teaches technology to people makes such poor use of it. Can't believe that in 2022 this app still doesn't have a good playback screen. Doesn't pause when the play/pause button on headset is clicked. Does pause when screen is locked either; just keeps stuttering and playing in the background. Doesn't have a dark mode either.
For both the app and the pc version, I continuously lose progress. I've emailed for help three times now without a single response. I would complete a week, go back to finish up the next week and the previous week's work is gone without explanation. Right now I am somehow on week three of my course, but all grades from weeks one and two are mysteriously missing. I've had to start over already completed work several times now and it is getting really frustrating.
It's ok but the video player is terrible. I just updated it and the control options keeps on overlapping the screen without coming off. Also when you press on a word in transcript it doesn't start on the exact sentence you press. How are people supposed to learn if they keep messing up the updates that effects the way the content is given?
Your new app update is not intuitive and less visually appealing than it was before. I am frustrated that I can't take a multiple choice exam on my app, but can it be on a laptop bc it was designed for a larger screen? You have the ability to make it fit phones as well. You guys pride and sell yourself on being able to learn wherever at your own convenience. Having to relocate to a computer to take a multiple choice test when it could fit on the phone isn't convenient at all.
Coursera is a fantastic platform for learning, offering top-notch courses and specializations. The user interface and experience are well-designed, making the learning journey enjoyable. I appreciate the diverse range of high-quality courses available, making it easy to find content that suits my interests and goals. Coursera has truly enhanced my learning experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking quality online education.
I personally loved the platform. But the app has some limitations and it's okay to have that. Coursera courses are really organised. It's been couple of months I'm on it and my experience is excellent. Very well described. And difficulty level increases with intermidiate level and then advanced level courses. It's a really good platform for knowledge and also promotions.
