The final project seemed to be graded rather arbitrarily. Also, the midterm was supposed to be taken in a 2-3 hour period during a 24 hour window, but many people took up to 15 hours or more. The final was a bit better, but still not doable in a reasonable amount of time.
The professor and lectures were good. I think the content should be re-structured a bit to make it more applicable to our lives.
The course material was unnecessarily theoretical for the second half of the class and I know I will probably never use 90% of the content I learned. Only the first half of the class where we learned about design principles was moderately useful. Overall a very boring class.
