The note given is not up to date with the trainer powerpoint. The prerequistise should define clearer. The Google Classroom link in the note is not working. Trainer needs to provide practise note on the type of command used. Many times, we need to ask to show the codes typed. (Posted on 7/17/2020)

Give students instructions on how to install ubuntu and ros in their personal computer before start of the course.
As some of us would like to use our own laptops so that we can keep the files.

Initially in the advert there was module 7 included which was the turtlebot programming.
A bit disappointing that this was not done as it would have given a real life feel on how to install upload the packages on a robot and see how the changes made in the packages would affect the function of the turtlebot (Posted on 11/28/2019)

Maybe longer time frame so that can digest everything, and inform before hand what ros version you are using so others can prepare beforehand (Posted on 11/27/2019)
