Make sure you ace the projects because the final is more difficult than anything else in the class.

Start the programming assignments early, there are a few tricky things to setup but professor Bailey provides a good amount of starter code and examples. The most difficult assignment was the shaders assignment (Project 4), which was the only one where I was stressed and turned it in late using one of the bonus days (you get 5 and can use up to 2 per assignment). Apparently it was enough trouble that they were kind enough to push the due date back a few days so everyone had more time on it. The class has weekly quizzes, 2 exams and 6 projects. The exams and quizzes are both open notes. Altogether a fun class if you're interested in computer graphics with OpenGL, only available in the Fall term.

Great creative class with Prof. Bailey. The project requirements are straightforward. Reports consist of screenshots and a video link. As long as the rubric is met, you get full points. 450 is less hand-holding than 475 but the main skeleton code is given. Assignment hints are still helpful. Quizzes come straight from notes (mainly code comment highlights). It's nice to see how creative your peers are also!
