"It was insightful to see sample answers. It's also refreshing to see that not all the answers were directly given to you - you had to conduct your own comprehensive research and apply appropriate understanding."-- Student from University of Technology Sydney

"I really appreciated that this program allowed me to compare my work with an exemplary version at the end of each activity. This gave me a chance to reflect on my work and investigate how the task could have been approached in other ways.
