Overview
Feedback is mostly positive. The strongest signal is that teaching clarity stands out. Best for students who want a structured class rather than chaos. The sample is still thin, so treat this as directional rather than definitive.

Student Reports
How hard is the A?
A is doable but not automatic
The signal here is more do-the-work-and-you-should-be-fine than easy-A chatter. Students do not describe the A as automatic, but the evidence also does not paint grading as punishing.
Homework Load
Moderate homework load
Homework load looks moderate. The recurring signal is steady weekly work, but not a course that turns every assignment into a grind.
Lecture Load
Regular lecture load
Lectures matter here, but the evidence points to a fairly standard lecture burden rather than a course dominated by long or exceptionally dense lectures.
Student Responses
I think this class was extremely useful for everyone living in this age of technology. Being prompted and challenged to reconsider the role of technology in my life and exploring uncomfortable aspects of these systems was extremely useful. I leaned a lot about algorithms and data privacy that I didn't previously know.

The information was a great foundation for thinking about the ways we are affected by the world of technology so much without even realizing. made me think about a lot of information and reasons in my life I should be spending a lot less time on the internet

I learned about the technologies and ethics surrounding AI, data privacy, and social media.
