This course was definitely beneficial in giving us an idea of what to expect when we go out into the real world. Dr. Simon did a good job in keeping us all engaged throughout the semester by asking us to participate in these forums. It was helpful to read other peoples’ comments and opinions for when I was struggling to understand a certain concept in the lecture. I also think that the final project is a great way to end the semester because we get to finally put everything we learned over the past 3 months into a real life situation and fill out forms that we normally would if we were actually a company developing a product.
