relatively straightforward class but more than half of the course is TA led. the content is digestible with unit 2 (the linear algebra unit) being the hardest. that aside, tests aren't hard and you're lowest quiz score ends up getting dropped which is nice. the homework however doesn't really match class content and just feels like a chore.

The professor was largely absent during this class. She had her PhD students teach 3/4 of the lectures; everything else was TA-led (sections, quizzes, final, etc.). The final was administered 50 minutes late (annoying). Class is easy, especially with prior coding knowledge; if you don't have any, don't worry, it's an elementary leveled class.

The professor is fine but she only teaches one of the 4 units and the rest are taught by TAs. Also very disorganized when it comes to tests. Our final was an out late because of a “printing issue” and the first test was late because the TA who had a bike accident. The hw is also very useless and sometimes doesn't even match class content.

Honestly nothing against the professor, her lectures are fine. But most of the class was taught by TAs. And the final started 50 minutes late without very poor communication throughout. This course should be reorganized since it covered too much material at a very very surface level.

Prof Miolane didnt really teach ECE 3, just basic python which was rushed and then she let the rest of her team do the work. Because of that, the entire course was disorganized and rushed, especially the linear algebra unit which taught so much content in one week and which required us to do a 15+ hour plus lab. Extra credit was a good bonus though

Nina is an amazing and interactive lecturer. That being said the course is poorly organized, specifically the linear algebra unit, which was just way too rushed. Some homework took many hours to complete whereas others could be completed in less than an hour.

Nina herself is a great professor and was very enthusiastic about teaching the subject, with that said this class is not aimed for freshmen if you haven't taken linear algebra or don't have coding experience you will struggle, I recommend taking the class later on, other than that Nina is very accommodating and wants people to good in the class.

Prof. Miolane is clearly very enthusiastic about teaching the course and making sure we participate and understand... that said, the course is very poorly conceived. ECE 3 is MATH 4A-- Linear Algebra. The final is entirely on Linear Algebra. You'll need to know Python to survive the homework, but our final was 40% of our grade.

The way that ECE3 is built is extremely dumb. I would not blame professor Miolane. She has a very thick French accent as well, hard to understand what she is saying. Seems passionate about what she is doing. Gave extra credit because curriculum was confusing for freshmen. Good professor, bad class.

prof is a great person and listens to student feedback, but the course itself is not tailored towards ee beginners. labs and homework are kind of a mess, but she gives 10+% extra credit which is great. no midterms and only one final which kind of screwed us over because we had no idea what to expect. the mock exam did not prepare for the final

Dr. Miolane is very understanding and makes changes according to feedback which I really appreciate. One thing she could improve on is giving more in-class examples, although the vast number of topics we were supposed to cover in 10 weeks made that difficult. ECE 3 as a course needs improvement, but Dr. Miolane did great for her 1st year.

The professor gives high scores for homework sets on Jupyter Notebook (I usually get easy 98, 99, or 100). Also, if you complete the DataCamp Python tutorial, the professor grants you extra credit. There are no mandatory attendances nor midterms. The Professor is French so it takes time to get used to the accent but the lectures are amazing!
