Students found that the best aspects of this course included the real-world application of the tools they used to complete the projects. They enjoyed learning the design tools and believed that the work they did helped them learn the materials. The final project took a large chunk of time and appeared somewhat disorganized. Students also believed that a lot of the work they completed did not support the final project. Students suggested assigning the project at the beginning of the course and spending the entire semester working on it. Students also wanted a lab with TAs to help review and teach the design tools more thoroughly. Prospective students should be prepared to start on their projects immediately and be able to set aside a large chunk of time to work on it.
