@SaraBonnar what a shame. I have done some futureLearn courses, of course there have been some mistakes and lots of doubts from students, but this it's the first one where the lecturer doesn't actively check the course lessons. Maybe they shouldn't have launch the course until the lecturer were able to pay the proper attention.
-
@SaraBonnar To rate the course you have to mark more than 90% of steps as completed, then futurelearn email you to rate the course, usually takes a day or two after finishing to receive the email

If you haven't tried to contact with future learn, try with the support button in the bottom right of these page.
-
Could you get any help from futurelearn staff?
-
@AddyFletcher Yes I thought I was wrong, but there is definitely something wrong with the quiz and tests. I already gave a low rating to this course, because yes everyone make mistakes, but the lecturer of the course haven't say anything about this comments and those who pay for the upgrade are getting low grade due to the mistakes in the tests.
-
@SaraBonnar I don't know about the test, I haven't upgraded the course. If your have found incorrect answers also in the test I suggest to you to don't take any more test and ask to the lecturer about these issues. I don't know if these can be somehow reported to futureLearn

I get incorrect answers at question 3 ( I get 186.92 and correct answer was 185.05) and question 5 (I get 176,231.62 and correct answer was 174,469.30). I solve the excercises using excel: =FV(0.08,14,0,60000) (for question 3) and =PV(0.07,1,0,200) (for question 5). Can someone explain me where I made a mistake.

The bad economic situation if the company I work for.

Thanks. I started to use R because I am an accountant and I am looking to use AI techniques to improve my career path. I will need programming skills but I am not looking for a programer job and for that R is the best programming language ( https://towardsdatascience.com/the-8-most-popular-coding-languages-of-2021-b3dccb004635 ).
Even though, I will have...

I think that the artist can claim the creative ownership, he is just using a new tool. The author will no longer be able to claim the ownership when tool start to be conscious ; )

I have workerd with Keras and I want to point out that, even when it is written in python, it can be use also with the R programing language.

Some articles talk about AI like it was here and it was already capable of everything and in others its say that AI career will froze again and fall into the deep. Is true that AI intelligence have had rough times, called winters, three to be exact, but I don't think that will happen again. However I don't support either that AI is at its peak. AI won't stop...

Hi, I am David Díaz. And what exited me to learn more about creative AI is recent video I watch where an AI was capable of writing a script

I am not exactly interesting in a career as a full time developer. But I think that programing is a skill that I need to get my career to another level.

The most interesting about how software teams work it is the interactive between the coworkers. I think it can't bee a little difficult to me do pair programing at the beginning, but I'm sure that when I get to know the team it would be easy

Is not this lesson the same as 2.8 but with the video?

In my little programing experience I haven't face a problem that can't be solve with this kind of logic. Logical variables and if-else statements are a power tool

The Blockly exercises are very similar to the coup of tea problem. This exercise are quite simple. I feel very confident. Yes the JS code make sense.

Being a professional programmee sounds good. I will like to write code for business management, I have some experience in the area but I am looking to improve my programing skills

I do think that the comparison between the tea-making algorithms and programing is a fair one. These could be useful because it could be a good example to also teach how functions in code work. If sugar or not, if milk or no, elaborate this statements with this examplea will make easier to explain how functions works.

I agree with you

My understanding of lecture, seminars, tutorials and independent study haven't changed. But even though, I have to acknowledge that, hearing and reading how Omar talk about it, lectures, seminars and tutorials look more interesting at UK universitirs that at my home country universities.

It will depend on the subject of the assignment. I personally think that when someone is studying should look at both subject-specific and learner dictionaries.

Look it up in a dictionary help you with your language skills. It teach you how to use it in a sentence and what are its synonymous and anonymous.

Another feature for a successful student that I didn't mentioned in the step 1.3 and that is said and explained in the video would be to become part of the learning process of the learners group, actively participating in group study so will be able to learn no just from the tutor if also from is peers

Amazing lesson. Thank you for these tips

I think there is not one thing or a conjunction of features that we can use to define a successful student. Because as explained by some of the others learners this depend on each person and is capabilities. Therefore I am going to mention some of the features that I have observed, during my academic life, in some of my fellows student that I consider...

They faces a lot of risks, for example. Any change in the relationship between two countries could result in an increase in import-export taxes. This will damage it with a increase of costs. Regarding to legal aspects Amazon has already faced problems in countries like Spain for mistreatment of its workers.

Economics and Political features impact in my country, Cuba, are both driving by the economic embargo of USA and the protectionist contra measures that the government has taken.

The biggest pro is autonomy. As said in the video "I think that’s the best part of having your own business and, you know, it’s yours to do what you like with it". And biggest con it is the lack of security of the first stages of creating a Business.

I think there are not universal traits. Get2test overall score is 76%. I think that even though the Get2test is not entirely right it makes some pretty good suggestions to follow.

I think this a very good question and very old. To me innovation, ideas or development can't be bad things. Is what we choose to do with our ideas with our innovations what it can be categorized as bad or good.
