	Course Comments
1	MEM GUI teach new internet technology which can enhance the mechanical and electronic eqipment. It's a exciting course. MEM 800 CAD/CAM gives us the latest combination of biotechnology and mechainical technology. We learn lot of biotech in this course. This is helpful to us.
2	Learned so much from this course; hardware, programming, troubleshooting, real-time control, just to mention a few.
3	This class provides a very good overview of the material. The only possible weakness is that some of the material is not covered as thoroughly as it should for a complete understanding of the material. However, a thorough coverage of all the material would not be possible for a 10 week class. This class provides a very good starting point for future learning in the field.
4	I am very satisfied with what I have learned in this course.

	Instructor Comments
1	Excellent communication skill, expert in PC control and interface.
2	Excellent professor, I can't see anybody else teaching this course.
3	Paul is an excellent lecturer with extensive knowledge of the subject matter.
4	He was well prepared and clearly outlined what he wanted us to do.
5	Excellent

	General Comments / Suggestions
1	Hope next year MEM 800 GUI will have enough PC and more exciting project. MEM CAD/CAM maybe concentrate on some specific technology.
2	Only problem with this course was the lack PCs available to do the final project. Some of us resorted to bringing our own PCs.
3	More handouts of relevant papers/literature in the field would be nice. I think providing a course note packet in the bookstore composed of relevant literature would be a nice addition to the class.
4	Computer lab should be organized.
5	Hard to believe that Drexel could provide just one computer for this course!
