28.   Additional Comments
There were no assignments since this was a project based class, so most of these questions are irrelevant....
The team project for this semester was interesting to work on. It gave me the perspective of working on code with others and customers in the health field. I took ICS 314 more than a year ago, so I will say that I was rusty with the concepts learned in that class to this class during the beginning of the semester. But I was able to get used to it again as we worked on the project.
I really enjoyed this class and hope to continue my software engineering progress!

29.   What was the format of this class? online synchronous (class scheduled for particular days and times) online asynchronous (class conducted online - no scheduled class meeting)
