Comments on the Homeworks:
- Do you have recommendations on how to improve the homeworks?
- Did you like using VB .Net as the language for the course? If
not, what would you preferred that we used?
- Should everyone in the class
be required to use the same language to implement the homeworks? (Some
students wanted to use Java or Flash for their implementation.)
- Were there any of the UI techniques used in the homeworks (contextual
inquiry, user studies, prototyping, heuristic analysis) that should be
eliminated or changed next time?
