Organization of large projects is indispensable. That may be common sense but in practice It's not simple even for those who've studied the design bible. Not knowing methods of organizing and implementing the present ideas leave the project development disabled. This course is great. Steps, reasoning, the Concepts and implementation are in this course. The presentation is structured well so the student remains organized. This course is a course about organization and externalizing thoughts and ideas. It's just what I was looking for. I do hope there will be updates in the future, if only to give us all an even better edge.
