Summer 2024 - I took this class with Katie Hannibal and I could not in good faith recommend it to anyone. The most frustrating part of the class was the unclear instructions from the TA regarding the labs and the final project. I visited office hours multiple times to clarify what I would need to do when submitting assignments and get a better grade, but when it came to grading I would get marked off of what I was told to do during office hours. Regarding grading, in a six-week session, we would get our labs back two weeks after we submitted them, however, there were multiple times when something would be taught in week 4 for example but we'd get marked off in our week two lab when we did not even learn the material yet.
