Fall 2025 - The class had really interesting content, but I think it could have been taught better. The expectations for the assignments and the class weren’t always clear, which made it hard to know what was expected. The case study presentations weren’t very effective either because people just kind of zoned out and didn't retain much. Overall, the material was great, but some changes to how it was taught would have made it a lot easier to follow and stay engaged.
