Feedback:

I must say that I apologize for not seeing your Module 7 final assessment. In my experience with CBE, I have not had a single student submit Module 7 “only.” Normally it is a build up over the course of each module then Module 7.

That said, overall you have a very good foundation here! You could have certainly benefited from completing each module which builds all of the necessary components needed for this final capstone module. At a minimum, please review the modules in order to have a better understanding of the objectives.
