Quotes:
The subject was very interesting, the lecturer was engaging, and it had nice structure. This should have been a mandatory course for all IT students.
I learned a lot from taking this course, and I liked the lectures and the hands-on activities. It worked very well as an intensive course.
Some articles were too complicated. Put the intensive course earlier in the semester. High workload.
I think this might be the best course (so far) I have taken at IFI.
