Comment: Most helpful: the instructor ensured material was understood by all students prior to moving on to different topics when at all possible.

Comment: The course was an excellent continuation of the ECE 240 course. I enjoyed the projects and the problem solving involved with them. I would like to see more integration between this course and the ECE 443 course, especially in the lab/project portion.
