Quarter: Spring 2023
Grade: NR
June 13, 2023

I learnt nothing in this class, such a waste of time. Would've learnt so much more in like a one-day hackathon. The professor is very unhelpful. He just reads off his slides that are reused from previous years. He doesn't care about actually teaching as he doesn't put in energy into class. We have group projects developing prototypes for HCI, which is as if he just wants to use our ideas for his own research. I would never take any of his classes again. If you want an easy-A, this is the class (I mean all 209AS classes are) but you really are wasting your money.

This class is a waste of time. The professor did not maintain a bruinlearn gradescope or other gradebook.No grades were given all quarter. No feedback given to us on our work. No feedback at each stage, only an excel spreadsheet with a rubric which we followed as best as we could. Then assigns an arbitrary letter grade based on whether he liked or did not like our project. Projects are also a waste of time, they are not used for anything, and no one asks questions about any project nor are they interested really for the most part. This professor has no interest in teaching as well or giving any feedback and is unengaging. If he likes your project in his head he will give you an A which is rare. If not he will give you a B+. Nothing gained out of it waste of money.
