The dissent
The most-upvoted critical review (10 votes, 1.0★).
“Learning materials are very poor and not up-to-date. Also the presentation of instructor is very poor quality.”
Coursera's 4.7 comes from 3,486 ratings. Of those, 2.2% are 1–2★.
Starisk reads the reviews learners voted most helpful, and weights each by the square root of its votes: a review with 80 upvotes counts about five times one with 2. Unvoted reviews are not skipped out of laziness — by this model they carry no evidence that other students endorsed them.
That measures what the most-endorsed reviews say, not “true quality.” The rating distribution above is the whole population, so you can see the sample next to it.
