Michael Linderman

Professor Linderman is one of the best professors in the CS department, so I'd recommend taking SoftDev with him. The class has 4 main programming assignments to be completed in the first half of the course and the second half will be implementing contents from those assignments into your group projects. There are also 10 practicals which are small programming assignments which will help with the project too. Resubmissions are allowed for everything so its a chill class.

This class is a lot of work, and I often felt like I didn't understand what was going on, but that's how CS classes are. Grading was very fair. You have endless tries for every homework assignment and 2 tries for the exam. I thought I was going to get a B or C on the final project, but ended up getting an A, which was awesome. Linderman is very helpful in office hours and accomodating to students. He even let me use his mouse for the entire semester since my mouse-pad broke.

Software Dev is a tough class, if you need to double up on CS classes I personally wouldn't with this one. Expect to constantly work on homeworks and programming practicals that are essentially more homework. Linderman is a great professor, however, you really just get thrown in the deep end in terms of JavaScript and all coursework. Otherwise, good class, great professor and if you take it come up with a project idea so you don't have to do a basic project at the end of the semester.
