Michael Linderman

I took this class because I heard that it is very valuable for anyone wanting to become a software engineering. I agree that I learned a lot about the basics of software engineering, but the class was very fast-paced and I don't think I retained a lot of the information I learned. There is also only so much we could learn within one semester, and I still don't feel very confident in my abilities in software engineering. I don't think we were ready for the final project, and there wasn't much time to do the project. If there isn't anyone in the group who knows a bit about software engineering, it might be a little bit hard. All that said, it was definitely a valuable class and I would want to take it again just to relearn everything.

This course was somewhat fun, especially the final project. Professor Linderman was very helpful both in class and outside of class. This class had a decent amount of homework each assignment took time to complete. Overall the course was okay as long as you put in effort you will do well.

This was class was hard. Linderman jumps right and speeds through content even when it is extremely obvious that 99% class doesn't understand. It felt like there was supposed a class in between this and comp architecture. The only way got through the homeworks was in office hours in which he basically did the work for you. Otherwise the exams were difficult. Each one had 5 topics it dealt with and each topic could 1 or more question. Since you were graded on understanding of topics, you only got credit if you got every question in the topic correct. This lead to many low scores like 2/5 of first exam. Would not take this class again.
