To future students of DCI 101-
This class has been nothing but engaging and I am constantly learning new things that I would not have otherwise come across. Having already taken DCI 180 in the fall of my freshman year, I knew that this topic interested me, but it always amazes me how much more is to be discovered on the daily basis. DCI is one of those classes that is constantly being updated as new advancements are coming out, with the latest popular concept being Artificial Intelligence, something we have touched on a ton. I advise anyone taking this class to use every assignment to become more engaged in the world surrounding you. There is so much that exists that is waiting to be discovered and this class allows you to do just that. One thing I found to be particularly nice, is that there are so many directions that the course topic can be taken in. For instance, our final project digital essay has allowed us to explore the part of DCI that most interests us, which I think is important with so many different majors in the class. This is one of those classes where you can really take in any one of your years at W&L. Currently, it is very senior-heavy but I think that is simply because we are almost, if not already, done with our majors and have the time to explore other interests. Overall, I highly recommend this class and have gained so much new insight from taking it, even beyond what I learned by freshman year.
