The course provided a good balance of theoretical foundations and practical applications, with some really useful insights into user research methods and human-computer interaction. While some of the course materials felt a bit dry at times, the discussions with my peers and instructors were always lively and helpful. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others looking to gain a deeper understanding of ergonomics and human factors.
