Summer 2024 - This class was a complete disaster from start to finish. The instructor only delivered lectures for the first two weeks and was virtually absent afterward, leaving us to fend for ourselves. Communication was abysmal, with both the instructor and TA taking days or weeks to respond to emails, often with unhelpful answers. The assignment instructions were incredibly vague and riddled with grammatical errors, making them nearly impossible to understand. A significant portion of our grade (30%) depended on a group project for which we received no instructions and were expected to rate other groups based purely on 'vibes' since no rubric was provided. The average grade for the project was a B, but it was unclear how these grades were determined. The grading system was also deeply flawed. All assignments were ranked against other classmates, meaning there was a limited number of A/A- grades available. This competitive grading system created unnecessary stress and did not accurately reflect individual effort or understanding of the material. This class was such a train wreck, and I really felt like I learned very little. I truly regret wasting money and time on such a worthless exercise.
