 My name is Yann Arun Premonan. I am working as an assistant professor in the department of chemical engineering, Sri Venkateshwara College of Engineering. I have attended the certification course for face equilibrium thermodynamics. As you all know, thermodynamics is a very important course of chemical engineering. So I wanted to get certified in that particular module. The course was actually very easy and the lectures were very interesting. And at the end of the lectures there were also tutorials and many solved problems. It was very useful in the perspective of as a faculty as well as a student. So it would be useful for me when I am teaching the course as well as for the student perspective, when they are writing for GATE or so many competitive exams, this course would be very useful. So I found the examination very easy and the facilities provided in the examination center was also very good. Thank you. I like the situation. I like all the procedure things and all. And the paper was like, it was okay. But yeah, I like the paper thing. But yeah, the preparation was not up to the mark. My preparation was not up to the mark, but the paper was like not hard. Portal, yeah. There should be some way by which we can just get our things at a glance. Like all the, like when you see the courses which we have registered, we have to go to the profile and then we have to go down and search it. So when I was new to that, I was not able to search where was my course which I registered. So that was stretch of our mind for that time. But then if it's like half an hour, half an hour, then it's fine. It was a good experience with NPTF. I am a second year student at IIT Madras. The course which I appeared for was introduction to data analytics. I found the paper to be very conceptual just like the course. And it's very beneficial to the people to be able to get access to such content for free. I mean, this initiative is amazing. Yeah, I actually wanted to learn this course as fast as possible. I mean, there are electives I can take, but that's only possible for the later semesters. I wanted to get through this as fast as possible. Yeah, I wrote fundamentals of databases. It was good. We need some kind of materials to prepare actually. The videos and slides are not enough, we feel. Arnab Bhattacharya, his lectures are good. Video is good. But then for preparation, those videos and alone are not enough. If we have any materials, it will be even more good. Because no, for watching videos, we don't find time. I have attended a law of thermodynamics course. I have studied in college this course for more than two semesters. But I can't understand the concepts clearly. But in this, the video lectures are very superb, outstanding video lectures. The IIT professors are simply outstanding. So I think I hope I have written the exams well. Suggestions, maybe the solutions of weak assignment can be uploaded in the portal itself. For searching the solution, I have to go for a Google Drive and it's time consuming. It's been great that I came to know about this course. It was just so convenient. For about three months, the videos that they uploaded were excellent. The coaching was excellent. We could upload assignments from home. And now we have just come here for the exam. Fundamental health research. I came to know it from the Hindu. And from then on, the entire process was very smooth. The coaching that happened in the videos was very excellent. And even through online, we could ask questions. There was immediate feedback from the team. So overall, it was a great experience for me. Right now, I am doing a course on health research fundamentals. And I don't know, I'm not aware if they are also offering an advanced course in health research. And if there is such a program, it would be good if they can announce through various medias. And if they can have contact numbers and get back to us. And even if they are introducing many new programs, if they let us know, it would be good. I am a yoga professional. And I was engaged as part of Ayush group. I was engaged in health research. So as part of my MFIL, and I also plan to do PhD. So I plan to do research. And this was something like an extra knowledge that I got to improve. I am a doctor actually. I am doing a health research fundamentals topic. That is the only topic for the medical field available. I did it just to improve my knowledge about research activities. And the course was very useful and very simple and understandable also. Both the written material as well as the audio. Audio is very good and extensive and complete. Maybe while doing the video, simultaneously projecting the PowerPoint will be more important than the focusing the person who is speaking. Because most of the time, we can hear audible things even without seeing the speakers. Therefore while doing the speech, more important should be given to the picture days of PowerPoint rather than the person who speaks. Slides are separate more. When you are going through the slides, you are not able to look into the videos. Background is playing. But the focus is more on the speakers rather than the PowerPoint. I am Dr. Jai Kumar. I am writing an MPTEL exam over at Object 1 Analysis and Design. This is the first time I have appeared for this MPTEL exam. Really what are the videos I have seen in the MPTEL portal is very useful. He has the professor Prathim Partha Patim Das. He is the professor for IT professor. He clearly given a guidance on how to prepare for the exam. You have to take the assignment seriously. Go through the description about the assignments and refer the videos. This is enough to... Unless I refer the textbook Grady Buic for OVD. If you refer both the things, it means definitely you will get a 100% mark in the MPTEL exam. That is what he told. I strictly follow the guidance. I refer the assignment seriously. And also I submit the assignments every week without referring the textbook. I see the video. Then I will go through the assignment. Without Googling, I will give a reply. Sometimes I got negative results also that I am not bothered about all those things. Only refer the PPT and try to sort out the assignments. So that is why out of 20, I got sometimes got 15, sometimes got 10 marks. I am not bothered. I am not asking anybody. Since I handle a subject various time, I do by the answer by myself. So really I thank the government for this type of initiation. As every teacher has to attend this type of exam. Because we have to role model to the students. Because we simply ask students to get good marks. But we have to show ourselves first. As the best teacher to the students. As a teacher, I attend the exam. And I hope I will get very good marks in the exam. And regarding the videos, they clearly explain the concept. They clearly explain the concept. And also they give an suitable example. Actually I thought that I handle the OVD subject very well. But the PPT only I know that the IIT is very far level from us. So I would like to improve to that level in the future days also. I thank the people who encourage us. Thank you. Very good suggestion given the portal itself. Those who want to get good marks, refer the portal. Refer the tips given by the process to handle the subject. Definitely you will get very good marks. That is my opinion. I registered actually for three courses out of so much of interest. But then you can write exam only for two courses. So today morning I have taken introduction to data analytics. And today afternoon I will be taking introduction to our software. And also some of my students have come for this test. I have brought them along with me. Actually the exam was fine. It was kind of easy than I expected. You didn't tell me which exam? I had taken the course for introduction to C programming. And it was really good. I think there is a problem with my net because every time it keeps buffering. So I check it only on my laptop. I don't check it on my mobile but there is not a problem in that. So I think the lectures were kind of clear and I never really asked any questions. It's very useful for research purposes. We wrote a program in C++. Most of the questions came from the assignments what we did. So it's easy and we watched the video lecture videos. It is useful for us. So the way they have improved from past three years has been excellent. The way they are conducting the exams, the courses, the material, everything they are providing is for free is like very good appreciable. I wrote an introduction to machine learning course. Teaching learning experience was very good. There are tutorial sessions which are for every lecture series while ending them. So for every week there will be tutorials describing what theoretical and practical examples are. So that's been good. Actually I have completed my engineering. So it's like a basis for me. It's good. So if you want to change your field, this is a very good option. The certificate is very valuable in the industry. I think it's a very good choice to go with courses and all. I'll put more number of courses on various verticals so that will be very appreciable. In the industry like software, suppose we take about teaching an Android development or something. Then courses will be very helpful to the people for all the doing jobs. I just wrote laws of thermal animals. The time management was a bit difficult because we had to manage both the college course and the NPT course. Other than that everything was fine. The course accessibility was really good and the assignment was really helpful. We could ask the faculty the questions directly. So that was really helpful. We are in a digitalized world now so we have to get used to it. My name is Raghav Arman and I'm working as a business analyst in Amazon e-commerce company. So this is the first time I'm taking this particular course. I think that's okay because Amazon is known for pioneering and we always have to find time to invest in ourselves and learn new skills and all that. And IIT, Metra is one of the brand names that everyone wants to accompany with and study and learn something. So that's why I thought... What was the course that you undertook? I took Introduction to Data Analytics Soundline. How it's going to help you if you are... It's definitely going to help me a lot because I'm in the analytics domain. I just started analytics career and this will help me a lot. I complete my engineering and I work as a quality analyst mainly on the Six Sigma side and all that. And right now I'm into complete data analytics. So I just started the analytics and that's why I thought the statistics and all those things would help me a lot. What's your opinion on the lectures? I think lectures are very good because I've taken course with other platforms as well. But the way the lectures are explaining is very good. They are starting from the scratch and they're not assuming that people know something. So they know that people... I mean the candidates have multiple backgrounds and the way the concepts are being explained are very good actually. But actually it motivates us to keep us engaged throughout the course itself because I've seen many people initiating some course and signing up but they will drop off in between because lectures will not be proper or lectures will go in a different direction. These guys will be having some different assumptions. I did not feel like that in NPTEL. It was pretty amazing. I don't think anything I felt like that but I think some real life scenarios, the exam case studies that could have been more better to understand the concepts. I think the way it is explained is very good because I believe in the fact that there is always room for improvement. So I think there is something that we can do by incorporating many real-life case studies to the assignments as well and also to the equations. But the way the equations were in the examinations was actually very good because I did not fall at the typical conventional template of just inputting the formulas, inputting the values in the formula and just get the order. It was not like that. So you can answer the question correctly only if you know the concept. So that's something I like. The course I'm doing is currently is Marketing Research and Analysis and what I would say to the students or the professionals everybody is that everybody can go and venture out at the NPTEL and this is very important for their knowledge expansion as well and it is very important for their curriculum or future also. So everybody can go and in fact put themselves some kind of an hours, some kind of a time to invest in getting more about the courses over here. It's fantastic. Yeah, the course are designed very well in front. They have given an ample time and the mock tests are there, the assignments are there. If an incubant puts in well time for that, I think he or she would get very well prepared course for that stuff. I think what I would say is certain assignments are already, I think it's not that much dynamic. People can go and see the answers for pre-assignments as well. So if the professors or the team provide a new set of assignments, I think it would be even more competitive in nature. This is Anusha. I'm a housewife and I'm writing two examinations in the morning. I have written introduction to programming in C and today afternoon I'm going to write C++. These two courses are very quite useful. While sitting in front, in home, I'm able to read everything within those materials. It captures everything, the concept was very good and the teaching was quite useful. Actually, I'm writing Python exam. I heard that Python is very much important nowadays, but we don't have Python in our college. So that I'm starting from is very useful. I'm a BTEC student computer science. So the course that I have taken is Introduction to Modern Application Development. So I spoke with my friends in the morning batch today. So it's a pretty easy paper and plus the course is easy and the contents provided by Napl was also good and the forum is pretty useful to discuss your doubts out and stuff like that. I want so much people to have awareness about this. This is my final year, but just now I got the chance to do the first class. So much people like me don't have awareness. Even though I told that I'm going to do that, they thought how can I do how it is possible. So much people, more than no one, I'm the only girl from my college I'm coming. Today I'm writing the exam for this course called Biology for Engineers and other non-biologists. It's been a pretty nice course, fairly simple, but since I've not had biology in my plus two, it became a little hard for me to handle. But yes, this is my first NPTEL course and I'm really looking forward to give its exam here and see how it turns out to be. I pursued for OOAD, Object Oriented Analysis and Design. I'm doing CSC Engineering, so I thought of doing some extra lectures attending it. I don't worry about results. That's why maybe I seem to be like confident. So I just wanted to gain some knowledge apart from the college. Yeah, it was up to my expectation and I could, through the videos, if I saw the videos then I could solve the assignment also. I already did a course in this itself, Programming in C++. I wished it, I liked it so much, so I wished to pursue it further on. I think assignment questions should be more. I am a bit confident on this also, but I feel that if more questions would be there, I will be more confident to attend today's exam. All the professors I've got, even one can persuade two to three courses at a time. I feel so there's no problem with the course. Sometimes some issues used to come while submitting assignments because I'm doing it simultaneously for soft skills also. So their subjective assignments are there. I couldn't upload those assignments. I don't know why. I can't attach the folders, so due to that I'm losing my marks in assignments. Yes, I didn't get any replies. I'm just waiting for that. Actually, I'm going to give an exam of Theory of Computation by Thigari sir. It's a very good course. I feel that it converts all the important things needed for the Theory of Computation and the way he gives the lecture is very good. I feel it is the best way a teacher can teach a student. I like it very much. It was very easily accessible and it was very timely done and in a very proper systematic manner we could understand easily. I have taken the Operating Systems and Theory of Computation course and I took it because I'm applying for Masters this year and it's a prerequisite. It's a prerequisite for my Masters degree, so that's all. The course was designed very well. I mean, the assignments were helpful. All of it was good. The exam was slightly tough. That's all. We are actually from we are attempting courses from computer science but neither of us is from computer science. So that way the pattern of questions itself was different for the first time but the fact that they were still designed in such a way that it's not really a MCQ question that you can either know or not. It's not information based. They still make you work out and learn and then solve the question. So that is something that helped us know the material even if you wouldn't do that on your own. So that's a benefit. Maybe you could actually improve the interactivity between the people who are conducting the course and the people who are taking the course. It is there to an extent but then maybe there's a pool of common doubts or something which gets generated over the years. I am giving iMAD that is Introduction to Modern Application Development Building Apps and Web Operating System. It's like the basics of like when the operating system started at that time what was the architecture of the organization that is what we are studying there. Though faculty was nice I think it's a bit slow I used to watch it at 2 speed on YouTube but yeah it was fine. It is a 30 year course I am a second year so I am doing something which is not being taught. I don't know right because the courses I am doing is actually a 30 year course and I am a second year so I haven't done them in college. Introduction to Research and it's one of the most sought after and it's a mandatory course which is like if you want to get an MTech degree or a PhD degree according to UGC rules it's a course and I am actually happy about the way the course was conducted and also the assignments that were given and that actually helped like usually in the PSD schedule we are actually caught up with a lot of things so the way it was taught I am actually happy. I am actually hoping for a more amount of example oriented course work next year I mean only one week was a little bit they discussed about everything so I would like it to be a little bit more engineering related and more modeling related like this was a bit more tending to students who conduct experimental based research as compared to someone like me who does modeling based research nevertheless it was still useful but yeah this is what I it would be really helpful if they include the thing like how to write a research proposal because even after getting a PhD degree we are asked to write a research proposal and it would be really helpful because this part was missing and even while we are applying for funds or applying for scholarships even during PhD that it's been told us by the same professors it would be really helpful so I am going to write about introduction programming see so the course was awesome the like the exercises and all those things were cool the assignments given to us was also like what you required for that particular course so the teacher the guide who gave us through also was good enough and for a beginner it was the best course to start with level of preparation yeah I am up to the 100% because right now I completed the college so it's just that in spare time I need to complete all the courses whatever I am spending so the level of preparation is like I knew all the things just to give a brush up and complete the I have a certification in my hand I am doing this. Next goal is basically I will try as much as possible courses completed by Neptune and since it's a very good platform for completing any good courses plus the course guide as well as the assignments given to us makes us to complete all the basic concepts the course and it will be helpful for our future life there is nothing is the answer because everything is up to the mark it's just that they extend the date only one concern with Neptune is because they extend the date for every assignment till now I have attended many courses and they have done for every assignment it's just that if it was intermediate like a Google calendar or something like that if they have a link because they have already have a tie up with Google's API for Gmail login similarly if we can do a calendar what will happen is we will get a notification of one day which is the last day of assignment so that if we missed for the rest of the days we can give that. I want to thank you for taking this initiative for keeping all of us why because even in corporate life I feel that learning should continue I am from corporate learning should continue every time and this kind of platform you know help us to do whatever we like apart from our own core work I am from mechanical engineer I am here to write an exam from computer science so that is the good thing of MPTL and I thank for that. My name is B. Kannadasan I am working as an assistant professor in university I am teaching here for last 8 years I have chosen geotechnical laboratory new courses this course is very useful new innovative methods and very useful one I am teaching now geotechnical laboratory it is useful to my students also it related to practical oriented questions and this new course is very useful is for us because we are teaching students to practically so we need to explain in depth so for that NPTL courses IIT courses lectures they explain very neatly so for that we are choosing these courses I have done the IOT internet of things it is based on how to use and how to perform the languages I gain some knowledge from this course I before it I does not know what is IOT and what is the language but after it I gain something about it it was a good experience to write this exam biomedical nanotechnology it is just developing so in the future it will be useful for us it is an extra added point nothing more information can be given like in the day or in the day actually I have done two courses one morning I have written market research and analysis now developing software actually initially they are my university they encourage I am from Satyapam now after that we are also interested so I applied for two papers so just for knowledge sake it is very easy so the method of learning is very easy when you go for this video conferencing and you go for PPT it is quite easy and also we don't find time reading books this is quite very easy I opted for health research fundamentals I am basically a dentist since I am not into practice I thought I should do something to keep me updated and this course did what I expected there is no direct link but something related to health research was interested on that line yeah it was very useful they were also interactive and the doubts were clear then and there it was highly health I think I should start a research study hi I am Praveen I am doing MSc in Applied Geology in Annoi University this is my first experience in NPTEL and I did the online course of digital image processing nice experience because I am doing geology so image processing will be useful in remote sensing data actually there is no core subject in geology in NPTEL course include some of core geology courses apart from that it was very good I was able to finish within one hour so I just waited for my submit button to get enabled attempted for database and management system overall the course was very nice even though I felt little harder when but after all when I said overall after completing the full course it was very much easier and ok it was more than I expected I found answers I thought I might not get many answers here but I did it was really easy not that much hard and it was good well I work in Cognizant I am a 6 plus years experience person and I am trying to get into business analysis role so that is one of the reasons I took up the introduction to data analytics course I believe this is out there in the world that a lot of online courses provided by a lot of companies or partners are not valued that much but then since there is an IIT logo attached to this so you know there is a recognized value because there is a big person standing behind your validation of your studying that is one of the major reasons that I took up this online course I have been interacting on the forum quite a lot and what I would like to say is that the energy is really nice but then towards the end of the whole period if they could directly give answers this is an honest feedback I understand that when you give direct answers and explanations you are not pushing the person to learn too much but then when there is a time when you are revising topics it is okay to point out that you are wrong because this is the answer this is one of the things that I feel because I invested a lot of time in very basic problems I have not been studying much for 6 years now so this is the first time that I have studied so a little help on what answers could be given I am actually writing for the introduction to maybe that was my faculty suggested me to go for it and now based upon what I have done so far I am interested in data analysing after doing the that was easy actually maybe the introduction was easy and when I get into the subject maybe I will know the real depth of it I was doing my iMAT course the way the paper was set there were some tricky questions in the middle it was completely good it was a nice exposure it was an examination that is ultra high voltage lines it was good bit easy except for one session sections there were a lot of mistakes actually I finished my iMAT I am preparing for net exams so I thought I will take literature for competitive exams so that it will supplement my net preparation because the course instructor she had touched upon all the major topics so I mean along with my net preparations the classes that I am taking this was very useful she had she had touched upon all the major periods I once wanted to learn something about translation theory that is when I chanced upon PTL I did not know about it before then but it is really good the course material is very good actually working in Satibam University as associate professor now today I have attended the exam on psychology actually because there was no course available in architecture direct but we have environment psychology as a subject and behavior is also a subject in social space so based on that I choose the subject it is very systematic and we are also into teaching profession so we know the in which the delivery is done so it was very helpful we learnt a lot in the process I am writing C programs a basic C program I prepare from college only more information we know about that particular C language nowadays C language is more important so that is why I am writing this actually recently we are concentrating lot on outcome based education so I wanted to know more in depth regarding that introduction to mobile application development this was my first NPTL course it was quite amazing experience it was through 8 weeks of modules and the video tutorials were very good and it was and it proved very effective for me to enhance my knowledge in my field which I want to pursue in future so it covered all the contents and I have gained so much knowledge the exam was also very nice it had the assignments were given to us every week so they helped us it helped me to clear the exam so it was very nice I appeared for the introduction to modern application development actually I was working in LIC software development only I have been working in IT for 20 years actually we didn't come for formal education we didn't come by virtue of our experience and practices we are working so we just try to appear this course to know where we stand and of course we are not lagging behind we are somewhat coping up with the new trainings actually I wrote exam on introduction to R software it was nice experience because actually for R software we need R studio software with us all assignments we used to submit with the help of R software but that is actually easy when you do your assignment I will have my R studio in my laptop so all the questions I will just copy and paste it in R studio it will give the answer so from multiple choice it is easy to pick up the correct one that is not a big thing but when we write exam we are not provided with R studio so that gives us confidence on a particular topic and afternoon I gave an exam on statistics and design of experiments last time also I took up introduction to biostatistics we are totally non-statistician and we are not from mathematics background so if such professors who are taking class if they could make it still simple it will be very useful for us because we find it difficult mostly I will say I have written my exam only based on my knowledge whatever I know I did not get much information from the course work what I have done but still that is what wherever we find it difficult it is R from R end also we have to put some more effort that we sometimes we do not find time that is the reason but the experience with R was wonderful my aim is at least 10 I should get I have not satisfied with this at least 10 but that is what I told you know we are from different background we do not have much of related courses for us and only 2 exams per day that is also a limitation you can conduct 2 days so that we can do 4 exams for 3 weeks program 3 months we can do 4 I am ready to do but there is a limitation actually I registered for 3 courses then I found that there is a limitation only morning one exam afternoon one exam so I in half way I quit another exam another course for each and every lesson they gave a hand out and those questions just came from the hand out itself so nothing over and above what was provided to us I chose python for this Naftal exam and I am from SRM university CSC department student yeah the exam was nice questions were not that difficult actually but yeah up to the mark and they taught us well and everything was good even the staff members were also helping and everything went on well just I wanted to enhance my experience in programming and being a CSC student I must know all these languages so I chose this python this was a difficult course in comparison to the last 2 courses I had taken but it was a good experience it was a good solution something we don't learn in college I attended it for the first time but it was interesting a bit tough more practice is needed but it was overall it was good yes last few videos I missed but yes I attended almost I viewed every video mainly because of placement requirements actually the examination as we have written is quite interesting actually as we are a staff and I'm working in Satyapam University but whenever it comes to an examination point like students he used to sit and calculate everything just fine actually it is good and all these application courses essential and it's good actually even staff are learning more and we are also practicing many things so that the outcomes we can even tell to students how we are doing all those things we can help students just a motivating course that I was attempting was very good and especially that Tanmay Gopal who taught us was very awesome and the way he teaches it creates more interest in learning and in order to get into depth also we are getting interested it was very good the course was outline also was very good and exam also it is also good not too difficult not too easy very good that is medium level that is actually good and course outline is very good and we are expecting more number of courses like this to be held in online BTL I attempted introduction to data analytics in the morning and in the evening shift I attempted data structure and algorithms using python experience was the course was meant for the it was pretty basic the only thing I would like to add is the number of practice questions that they gave in the weekly assignments was very less so that practice that the practice was less but the paper and all it was very good I am Vignesh working in assistant professor in Saram University so Tripoli department I am working so I have taken the course basic electrical engineering and next month I will be I am going to write the control system engineering as I have about the course its course design is very good and one thing is that some solutions are solved but some I mean they are not giving derivative part only just solution then answer is given some questions are not clearly so that they can do it but mostly in control systems they are doing basic electrical course is very good because the professor is explaining the each and every concept how to do the problems so in that way the solution videos is given separately but it is not in PDF format in control system means there is in PDF format but explanation is not how to do the problems but lecturing what it is given here somewhat is not related to the problems so some lecture videos are given but examples are somewhat tougher than they think what they solved in the example problems so this is the case and the one thing is that they can reduce the fees exam fees so 1000 rupees they are having so they can go for 500 or below 500 because each and every semester they are doing online courses so they can reduce the fees this is my first attempt this is my first attempt last year I registered in summer vacation but for some reason I couldn't attend when I was senior they told me that exam is not written there is no use in setting this is not necessary I will come and I will write they said I will write there is no use in setting but there is no line so there are so many people so I will definitely write a lot of courses I have taken the department project planning and control I am the third year but many people said I will finally take this no no I will take it now when I study I will learn so I have written except for a lot of courses and I came here it was very interesting I hope I will do more courses in NPDL yeah it was good I did machine learning so I prepared better so it was not much difficult actually two complex full mathematical stuffs it is actually a computer science course but it is fully mathematical but it was easy like I managed the exam I attended machine learning course it was quite good the lecture videos basically the one taught by Anirbhan Santara as his teaching assistant he taught us really well after every week he revised all the concepts so just before the exam I just pre-stepped all the videos very excellent maybe I am one of the oldest participants I suppose at 52 really very useful finished wrong I suppose in the exam as well I am mad I have lot of ideas probably doing it online continuously because lot of things can be improved basically my point is to take it to you know the awareness of the program is very low that has to be increased to make it more useful one more thing is the pre-requisites need to be completed before I could not have time to finish my pre-requisites lot of pre-requisites are there starting from scratch it requires time probably I will be sharing that with a specific program I wrote biostatistics and design of experiment so like this is an experience where NPTEL gives you personal attention we are able to just read the things and listen to videos and then correlated with real life experiences like there are so much real life experience already correlated and it gives like personal personality a lot of things and we are able to have a clear idea of whatever that is thought and if you have any problems also like the forum when we put it in the forum the answer will be immediately given so it helps us a lot in clearing up doubts and everything so it's a good experience writing NPTEL and the exam was very conceptual and very basic questions so it was easy to do and it's okay it was great actually I gave two exam today one was IMAD modern application and the other one was python both went good okay actually ma'am session was excellent I have done machine learning it was very useful ma'am explained very nicely tutorial was useful everything was okay questions are as expected whatever ma'am taught we did completely I wrote two exams one is introduction to cryptology the other one is introduction to machine learning it's introduction to course and then it covers those basic pillars okay and it was deep enough in fact one simple word even those who are taking the subject they need to attend these courses just so as to sharpen their own skills that is one thing second thing we may be following one book one kind of thinking these courses may be complementary in some sense so it expands your even if you are a teacher it expands your understanding so that is one thing very sensible if you attend all the assignments sincerely surely you can hit it so that is the lesson and of course it is not too broad okay so most important points are covered in a way that is good okay if it is not exhausting so those are the things in a way in itself I look at it only as a intermediate step because the world is moving on to critical thinking not just data knowledge and data knowledge is already available everywhere in the net people are going beyond that so this is acting as a bridge between where we are yesterday and where we want to be tomorrow happy to have participated in the process I attended this phase equilibrium thermodynamics course and it was a great learning experience and taking exam was also good so that I can judge myself how much I learnt so overall it was a good experience quality of lectures are good I think the lecture notes can be given like I mean these lecture notes were actually uploaded quite late last week only so they could be uploaded bit early and the quality can be better I mean in terms of the content the distribution of topics and all but it was good any of your friends also attending this course not that I okay well I came to know through friends only last year and then I wanted to follow some courses in chemical thermodynamics so I went on the website and I found this course interesting I did a stereo chemistry course it was a 8 week course and it was nice they gave assignments and we worked out the assignments and the video lectures were very helpful the paper was also very good questions were little bit of tricky so we have to think a lot and work out a lot actually we got some additional sheets also to work out university has motivated us to do everyone has registered after that we got motivated because of the subject and actually we got interested because we used to tell students that always you have to cultivate interest in the subject so after registration without interest we cannot do anything like that so we cultivated that and we worked hard actually today when we came inside I felt really like out of the thing because everybody were students everybody were students like I thought okay like we are I also feel like student actually while we are entering so many students are standing but it was very nice after a very very long time it was like a very good experience writing an exam and till the last minute till that one or two minutes we submit the click submit button it was really a tension whether it is correct or not actually I am basically government working for CAG office so I we are going in the process of big data analytics and all that analytics and our programming software and this both the process are really useful and interesting and the class they have taken and all are really helpful, useful and we could do the exam very well well I opted introduction to modern application development it was very good because within 8 weeks within the duration of 8 weeks I was able to develop an app so I feel this would be really useful for everyone and the exam was also not it wasnt very tough and it wasnt very easy, it was modern so I feel it was worth it we have registered our college in the last batch so last batch many of our students also took up the exam now also they are taking up many courses we were interested in doing almost all courses but unfortunately our slubby is not to that all levels so most of our staff also interested they said very good being our arts colleges been introduced this kind of earlier it was only for engineering so now its been to the arts stream people feel that its great honour and privilege that you have taken up also as part of your NPTEL course is also very good every subject is good but few things the presentation given by the North Indian professors is not that clear because its most of our staff and students they felt that not like general English if you could say so compared to the North Indian professors if they could be little more clear enough I feel technically its ok but the pronunciation and other things differs so we couldnt follow it I went for fundamentals of database systems the content was really good and the examination the level of examination was much more than standard means what I expected it was really nice this is not my first time with online courses so already too much been with online course so it was a good experience although it was from IITs the lecture was too good because really standard one thing is those websites they are from foreign they are having the content from some foreign universities means the research papers they used to publish from that sites content is there and in this course also they try to manage up to that level this is a computer related course it is really good the videos the video content are very good and they explained clearly and very slowly the content is overall good actually I did this project management course actually it was sort of a revision for me because I was working in the field and then recently I have come into academics so for me it was very quite useful because I was not in touch with academics for quite a long time and this course really helped me I attempted the modern application development course it was really nice they taught a lot of important things and I have been interested in this field for a lot of time and to see a course that is designed so well and structured so nicely easy to understand and well explained and there was an exam also the whole experience is wonderful today I took up mechanical unit operations that is mechanical operations I am chemical engineering basically it was a good question paper actually and she taught us really well the mock tests were very useful just it is a 4 week course just 4 week course and then next month I am taking transfer phenomenon this is my fourth test I am taking this it is a pretty useful course actually before entering NPTEL courses I felt I was weak in C++ and all other courses I think C++ in NPTEL it was very useful for me I could solve I could think more than what I actually think and it was very useful and solving those assignment questions and quiz it made me to improve myself the videos and the lectures was very clear and if any queries they are helping us a lot instead of giving PDF they can give course materials so it will be very useful for us in learning more concepts because in PDF they are able to cover some of the portions but if they include course materials it will be useful for us Python, the course was very nice it was easy to know all the concepts so it was good learning that course this is the first time I take that course first time I will complete assignments that will be very useful for me and the exam is also very easy I will go into it I can understand what they are saying if you are having doubts means at the time itself you can ask they clarify the doubts
