Winter 2024 - Heat transfer is hard, trying to follow the lectures when you have to look out for mistakes in lines and lines of derivations makes it more difficult. I personally was always behind in this class because I had a heavy quarter, and because this class was held at 8am. The homework assignments should have harder deadlines because it is hard to make them a priority amongst all other class work (when due at the end of the quarter). I did not find lectures engaging since they were so math heavy, and I only enjoyed the small conversation of the real-world applications of the concepts. From day 1 of this class, I found Peterson to be an interesting guy. Being so statistically focused and trying to organize partnered exams was definitely a distraction. The lecture summary sheets were pretty organized and helpful, I think they could have been more complete as the homeworks did require other equations that were not included on them at times. A curve may save my grade in this class, but I will admit that I am probably not going to remember anything other than the generic topic headlines after this class.
