Our opinion
ToggleBrilliantWith their library of bite-sized casual learning courses for all kinds of STEM topics, Brilliant fills an interesting niche in the online learning market. We like the amount of thought they have put into their courses, in order to make it fun and interesting while teaching you fundamental concepts of science & technology. Overall, we recommend Brilliant for learners that want to get introduced to new concepts, and that want to learn for fun, rather than learning to achieve a concrete career goal.
DataquestWith their focus on data skills, Dataquest is a great platform for students looking to learn about data science, and data engineering. They offer a variety of courses, combined with practice projects that help beginners navigate the data science world, which is why we recommend Dataquest for beginners in particular.
