COMMENTS:

Dr. Nelson did a really good job of presenting the material and making it interesting. He is very knowledgeable in this field. The assignments were good at making the students learn the material presented in class although at times there were quite a few students who were unclear about exactly what was expected of their assignments. Possibly more detail or clarity to the assignments would clear up the ambiguities. It may have frustrated some students that their demo given in class was what their entire score was based on when such little functionality was actually presented during the demo. It was kind of a hit-or-miss thing as to what Dr. Nelson actually looked at in the demo. Overall I really enjoyed the class.
