Dissatisfied

1. The data being used in the tutorial was not provided with the course material so we could follow along with each step.
2. There was a lot more explanation of concepts and lot less examples/ demonstrations of implementation of concepts. As a result, the course felt much more dense and un-memorable that it had to be.
3. I often paused the video to implement some part of the video in my ArcGIS. When I un-paused, each time, the video took me back to some earlier part of the video instead of unpausing exactly where I left off. In this way, the videos often made me spend more than double the amount of time than the length of the video. Yet, I cannot understand why unpausing is so unnecessarily complicated.
