Coding Elements vs. Coursera vs. UpGrad

I wanted to learn python for my project where I saw coading Elements. I took the free demo class, and it was really nice. The teacher was amazing.batch size is good which ensures that lectures are clear and that you can ask questions without feeling awkward. You don't have to enroll yourself before the session because they offer free demo classes as well.I advise anyone interested in learning how to code and pursuing a career in it to sign up with Coding Elements because of their supportive learning environment.

The Coursera platform can be a useful part of your overall learning content portfolio if utilized correctly. It's fantastic for asynchronous courses that don't necessarily need a dedicated faculty member (though I'd highly recommend at least having some discussion moderators/student workers) and for offering MOOCs. The ability for the learners to contribute translations really makes it ideal for the international learning community - I am always amazed to see a course we launched with 2-3 languages to quickly have 10-12 more added. This feature really helps expand the audience reach and Coursera has such a large following already that it can grow seemingly overnight.

1. Gives you holistic learning with a combination of lectures and assignments
2. Can be accessed via website and mobile application
3. You can download videos and watch them later
4. Overall it is a cost-effective tool
5. Their video player needs a lot of improvement. It keeps on buffering a lot and use a lot of data. Some additional features could be provided like fast-forwarding videos by 5 or 10 seconds

• best for theoritical knowledge and practical experience
• class size is effective and understanding
• highly recommended for learning programming live python, java or full stack courses.

• Interaction: the student learns by doing. For programming courses, this means programming!
• Assessments: the courses I'd taken ask students to grade each others work with a rubric. This is hugely effective and permits tests and quizzes to be other than multiple choice.
• Creativity and enthusiasm of the instructors. Some of the approaches demonstrated real out-of-the-box thinking by the instructors. For example, the Rice Python course was a self-contained website requiring no installation of IDE on one's computer, and the final project was a working version of Asteroids.
• Low cost of entry: most of the course I enrolled in were free, with an optional fee for certifications. This really gives people the freedom to explore learning. It's almost like a Public Library of Learning.
• Coursera forces a weekly discipline on the user with lectures and assignments and this really motivates one to put in the effort.

Incentivized

• The courses library is too exhaustive
• It has partnerships with few of the most reputed universities in India and Globally
• Its a cost effective tool

• batch size is small, which is good for leaning but less competetive
• since its new, its is expensive compared to others.
• there is no major drawback. it is all good and satisfactory.

Incentivized

• Some of the courses (very few) have some old information (more than 2 years), and in some areas like technology the information has to be very new and updated.
• Some professors or people doing videos are not good in front of the camera, they should train their people a little bit more for those things.

Incentivized

• The video player needs improvement
• Their mobile application gets stuck and can be made intutive
• Some courses can still be made cheaper

I think Coursera has the best overall interface. I think you will find that different platforms go in different directions, and have different specialities. For the most part the differences are more in the types of courses they offer than one being particularly better than the other, so it comes down to content for me.
