This course is (almost) all theory and no practical elements. It provides a lot of concepts to the student that it are quite hard to absorb without practice. However, the course is very concise and can be finished in less in a week if needed.
Overall, good introductory course that has to be followed with practice, otherwise it will be with minimal benefits. -
