I took Data Science with R: Data Analysis and Visualization with Derek in Fall 2016 and I would like to share my experience with the course. Although I will try to stay objective, my observations may be biased as I established and maintained a positive relationship with the instructor throughout the course. Also, as tempting as it is to discuss extraneous details, I will refrain out of civility.

I took Data Science with R: Data Analysis and Visualization with Derek in Fall 2016 and I would like to share my experience with the course. Although I will try to stay objective, my observations may be biased as I established and maintained a positive relationship with the instructor throughout the course. Also, as tempting as it is to discuss extraneous details, I will refrain out of civility.
This course is designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to R and it delivered. From the syllabus that articulates clearly defined learning outcomes to interactive exercises that check for understanding, the course followed a predefined timeline and I walked away with a sense of how I can continue my education in data science. Although students came from various backgrounds, the instructor continuously tried to find the middle ground to provide as much personalized learning as he can.
Likewise. Derek is a working data scientist who uses R on a daily basis. As a result, he shares plenty of relevant examples to contextualize various approaches and explain why certain measures are in place. In addition to brute memorization, which is an inevitable part of learning computer science, he tries his best to help you understand the logic and make you think and approach problems like a computer scientist.
To balance the scale, I will comment on areas for improvement. I felt that the course did not have an appropriate adaptive learning measure in place. The teaching material was rather outdated and I sensed that it had not been evolving in proportion to time. However, the instructor was experienced enough to fill the gap. In addition, there seemed to be a disconnect between the instructor and the institution. Throughout the course, there were a number of instances where the instructor seemed unfamilair with the material he had prepared.
In conclusion, I sincerely enjoyed Derek's class and I suggest considering this class if you are trying to start the first chapter of your journey in R.
