2.004 Focus Group
I am looking for some volunteers to meet with me for an hour or so late next week, Th or F. The goal is to bring together some of you, and some of the Fall 2016 2.004 students, so I can learn about whether changes to the class content this term were positive. I will provide a basic list of the major changes as I see them, but there may be other items to discuss as well.
Thanks for considering; please email me if you are interested, and let me know good times.
If I can make schedules align it will be a lunch event (on me!).
