     7    Weekly homework assignments are         I really wish you had a book that       The course material seemed a little
          definitely a must!                      traced back to the notes better.        jumpy (jump into one subject, leave it
                                                                                          for a while, then come back).
                                                                                          Reorganization might be more helpful

     8    Prof DOE provided many real-world
          examples from his professional
          experience that were relevant to the
          theoretical material presented. The
          material including the assignments was
          a perfect fit with my current job
          assignment.

                                                  paste. We could look at an example      that we could see the big picture.
