About the Course

This MOOC provides you with the foundational skill set required to write computer programs. If you are interested in learning how to write interactive, graphical programs from an introductory level in a real programming language, this is the course for you. You will begin by learning the basics of editing and running programs. Then you will learn how to create 2D graphics using shapes and coordinates. Finally, you will learn how to create interactive graphics that you can control with the mouse. You will even solve a set of interactive puzzles using your coding skills in the Sleuth game which has been created especially for this course. The course uses the Javascript language and the p5.js library....

The course is built up well, the steps are easy to follow. Even when there is some research required, the intentional gaps are highly manageable. The gamified deliverables were really fun to do! :-)

It's worth the hard work. I'm insatiable for learning and need more impossible looking projects or games that Coursera designed to help the student really get into the world of computer programming.

This course is incredibly unorganized, the download folders don't match the lectures, and there is not enough information given as you try to follow along.

Sleuth assessment isnt really good. Tons of users (including me) complaining that they solved the task but still getting error message.

Very upsetting that Brackets would not work for me on Windows. I really wanted to learn but the outdated program wouldn't allow me to.

The assignment in week 1 is unreasonable.

You should have told students how much time is needed to finish the assignment of week 1.
