Good information however, the presenter makes some significant errors when reading her slides. If someone isn't following along with the slides and just focusing on listening they will get the wrong information. e.g. - "Solar and electric and water" is not the same as "Solar electric and solar water heating". Her extemporaneous comments did help explain the material. Also an hour credit should be 50 minutes not 61-1/2. My time is valuable.

Overall good summary. Would have preferred the instructor to not read the slides to us but provide high level points expanded by her verbal examples. Green car credits perhaps included too much detail for this course but lots of good data there.

Short but to the point ... you can get a high level understanding but not sufficient for a deep conceptual understanding
