To ensure an immersive, self-paced learning experience, this course employs a video-free approach. Instead, assignments feature concise explanations, complemented by visuals and executable SQL code examples. These examples come with suggested modifications, encouraging learners to explore further and deepen their understanding through practical application. Participants will receive immediate feedback through a range of assessment items. These assessments progress from quick comprehension checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and unscrambling SQL queries) to small, manageable coding exercises that can be completed in minutes rather than hours.

Software Design as an Abstraction (Coursera)

The design step in developing software has some unique characteristics. First of all, it’s the only step where drawing pictures of things is the norm. Why is that? What do pictures do that other representations cannot do? Pictures have varying levels of detail; pictures have context. Pictures…paint a picture. Why are these things important? In this course, too, we begin looking at other disciplines (building architecture is a favorite one) for lessons on design.

Big Data Analysis with Scala and Spark (Coursera)

Manipulating big data distributed over a cluster using functional concepts is rampant in industry, and is arguably one of the first widespread industrial uses of functional ideas. This is evidenced by the popularity of MapReduce and Hadoop, and most recently Apache Spark, a fast, in-memory distributed collections framework written in Scala. In this course, we'll see how the data parallel paradigm can be extended to the distributed case, using Spark throughout.
