Sure, but it had exams as well. I'm in university studying Computer Science, and started it when I had a bit of extra time. When my work load built up on proper assessed work I needed to do, and I got deadlines that clashed with its exams, I couldn't see the point in watching the videos in a
fixed time and then not doing the exam.
I'm sure it's valid to criticise my time efficiency while I've been at university, but I did try to phrase my comment without saying the game theory course required too much. It didn't, but it didn't fit with my schedule.
- tansey 14y agoRight, I totally understand that. It is surprisingly difficult to find 2 hours a week, consistently every week, to sit down and work on one of these courses. I am just saying that the game theory course is by far the most accommodating of all the Coursera courses thus far. Even the exam, it was 10 questions that honestly only covered the easier parts of the material (e.g., dominated strategies and mixed equilibrium, but nothing to do with the core or shapley values), and they gave you like 10 days to complete it. I think the main takeaway here is that even though this class was really optimized for completion, you still found yourself too busy. This is probably because the course is on the same schedule as your university classes. If they shifted the calendar a few weeks, so that it was mostly during the summer and winter breaks, they would probably see a lot more completions.
