Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Megan Adams puts a lot of thought into the curriculum. She gave us recent, relevant and engaging articles to read. Nothing felt like it was thrown in "just cuz". She gives clear expectations and is available outside of class. Only critique, she took a while to grade assignments.

Megan is a clear lecturer, until she isn't. You'll get activities for systems she spends little time on, and she'll say things like "this system wasn't developed for what I'm asking you to do." Worse, Megan gives almost no feedback whether you're doing anything correctly. Also, a group project is worth 40% of the grade. Take 602 with anyone else.
