28.   Additional Comments
I appreciated Professor Moore's straightforward style of teaching. He presents information in a clear way that is easy to understand. Because of this, there is no wasted time in the course and I can learn a lot. Also, I want to mention that I was highly impressed by the speed in which Professor Moore was able to configure my IDE and debug my code. What would have taken me hours instead took him mere seconds. The guy definitely knows his stuff and works incredibly fast. Overall, ICS 314 will go down as one of my favorite ICS courses to date. I gained a lot of skills in this course, ranging from Github to Portfolios to HTML/CSS to React and Meteor... all was useful. Thank you!
I learned a lot from this class
Explanation of the lecture could be better by going over the details in more depth the small details of how things work one by one and may want to add an overall explanation of how things come together for further clarification.
I really enjoyed this class. Cam Moore really demonstrated good knowledge on the topics
HE WILL HELP YOU
It was a good class with a different teaching style that I found quite engaging
