It’s easy and straightforward

The instructor is very knowledgeable and goes into detail as needed for this specific course.

More pictures of PC components would be better and more useful. Alot of slideshow throughout the entire course. Not the best way to relay a message.

By Pat Chamberlain on 9/1/2023

Thanks, however, the instructor uses the term "movie' when referring to each "video." It was somewhat distracting throughout. All in all, great work!

By Yvonne Monks on 8/8/2023

There are too many ppt slides and not enough actual visual examples. This makes the presentation boring and hard to follow. If I wanted to read or be read to I would have just gotten a book.

By Abby P. on 5/7/2023

Overall, I would highly recommend this computer hardware course to anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of how computers work, or to those seeking to enter a career in the field of computer hardware.
