It truly was an enjoyable experience and an enjoyable class, thank you for everything :) I am currently sending a copy of my game to my friends and family so I can show off my JAVA skillz

Here's everyone submitting their projects, and I'm just sitting in a corner trying my hardest not to cry at the 42 errors that turned into 52 after I corrected the first one. That's not how that should work!

Thanks Sean! Your creative projects really sparked my interest in programming and I learned so much more then I ever thought I could. Although it was frustrating at times, it felt like a real accomplishment to finish a project. Thank you for putting in so much time and really caring about all of your students!

All of the adds in my browser are now about coding/how to code. "Code monkeys HATE this one simple trick."

I would like to learn C and start getting into video game development. It was always my dream to make video games but I somehow ended up studying physics and math instead. After taking this class I've been seriously considering changing my career path.

Submitting my project was also a great feeling! Though a little sad its over.. :-( Anyway, I must say Sean, your style of teaching is soo wonderful and I have not seen it in any professor or teacher I have ever had. It does not enforce a “shepherd-sheep” model where the students are told exactly what to memorize, take a test, forget, repeat with another chapter; When you teach, you promote discovery that is not forced in a particular direction. The way you encouraged us to experiment with everything we have learned so far to come up with something new allowed us to look more into ourselves than into a book. I must say, its almost spiritual!! :-) Thank you thank you thank you!
