A user comments: "This is my review of the course: Really helpful for people with no or only minor tech background. I would recommend this course to business people who want to understand some tech basics. Explains some fundamentals (like the binary system, how the internet works, what cloud computing is and what the various popular frameworks and technologies are). In addition, there are 2 weeks that include some practical work: programming languages (you get to code a simple program in Scratch) and web development (where you get to program a very basic website with HTML and CSS). These 2 practical assignments are really helpful but take a little bit more time than the assignments in the other 4 weeks :) So yes, a great course overall."
