Learner signals suggest that the Terraform provider versions and specific resource definitions (such as dynamic public IP allocation) are outdated, causing errors in current environments.
Instructional Structure Gaps
The early stages of the course may lack sufficient depth in resource block destructuring, making it difficult for those without prior Terraform experience to follow.
