About the Course

This introductory courses on (Ordinary) Differential Equations are mainly for the people, who need differential equations mostly for the practical use in their own fields. So we try to provide basic terminologies, concepts, and methods of solving various types of differential equations as well as a rudimentary but indispensable knowledge of the underlying theory and some related applications. The prerequisites of the courses is one- or two- semester calculus course and some exposure to the elementary theory of matrices like determinants, Cramer’s Rule for solving linear systems of equations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors....

The course is correctly paced. The lectures are extremely good and carries lots of details. Overall, the course is very well organized, extremely thankful to the instructor and others for the support.

It was very informative and has several examples which makes it easier to understand and solve problems. The pace of this course is 'just right' and it does not make one feel too bored to study it.

I appreciate the efforts of the instructor for making this MOOC. But this course seems dull to me. The discussion forum is inactive. No reading, no required quizzes only video lectures and graded quiz are there. Moreover, there is also no in-video quizzes. Anyway, I gained so much out of it. It's a 9-week long course and there is much material in video quiz so if you are going to take this course you will surely get many things from this course.

I am a 7 5 year old math tutor and wanted to refresh (or actually learn) my knowledge of differential equations. This course was well presented and had good examples. I would only ask for more examples and also be able to see worked out solutions of the quizzes, once we have passed them.

This course is a great walk through of various analytic techniques for solving ODEs. The instructor's presentation styles is especially good because he takes the time to write out the derivations and examples, as opposed to just reading from the slides.

Instruction was excellent. Quiz questions did not always match the instruction. For my personal level, I needed a lot more practice to prepare for the quizzes. About thirty more videos in between would have been beneficial for me.

This is a solid course. It has very good content presented in a concise way which in general appeals to me but may not appeal to everyone. My biggest piece of criticism is the lack of practice problems with solutions.

It's really excellent when he goes deep into the fundamentals of each concept but sometimes I find it hard to keep up on the representation of variables in the introduction of a concept then apply it to the problems

It gives the basic theory and knowledge needed to start learning differential equations. The material was easy to understand and was presented in a simple organized way that was easy to understand and follow.

I liked the presenter and assume most of my problems caused by the decades since I last studied calculus. (I had forgotten lots about integration and imaginery numbers).

Can I still buy the certificate?

A better explanation of the theorem (especially going through each step of the proof rather than skipping them) would be a lot more helpful. Also, if possible, give other reference to read and practice.

Gives you in-depth knowledge of Differential equations but there is a little bit less explaination in WEEK-7 topic- ANNIHILATOR. But overall the course is very good to study.

Really Helpful. Very structured and enough examples to illustrate the concepts. The quizzes are good and sometimes need an extrapolation of the knowledge in the lecture.

The Korean accent was quite hard to understand. So I had to repeat some of the clips over and over again. But overall, it is an effective online learning course program

It's a great course I recommend to everyone. And we are looking forward to a partial differential equation (PDE) course sooner.

Thank you!

Great introductory course! A follow-up course would be fantastic to elucidate more of the concepts covered in this first course.

Prof not very interactive, there is less motivation for students to discuss among each other but course content is very good!
