The best aspects of the class were the interesting topics covered, thorough feedback, and light workload. Students particularly enjoyed coming up with an original invention idea and studying current breakthroughs in the technology. The worst aspects of the course were the lectures that seemed disconnected to assignments, student presentations that were not always helpful, and the omission of the limits of the technology discussed. Suggested improvements to the class included more student interaction during class and more discussion of the technologies limitations. Prospective students should know the workload is light and the material is interesting. This is a good class and is recommended.
