14. Use this space for any comments you may have about the course, the instructor, readings, etc.
- The lectures were divided between the two teachers. I felt that the aesthetic ones were not very helpful because they were very broad (not given by C. Covington). It would be a good idea to have the class in the lab room so the art side of the work can be taken care of in the presence of the teacher. It should also be required that he have a deeper understanding of XNA. The technical lectures were quite informative.
- Great course, great idea to have it be based on actually making a game instead of having a final.
Reports were a good idea to accompany the game.
- These ratings were for Chris Covington who taught more of the lectures.
