Parallel 2: MTTK

MESSAGES FOR PARALLEL 2

Date Subject Message
14.11 Next week: exam 2015 Aug. Next week (week47) we will solve the exam from 2015, Aug. Please first solve by yourself before the lectues.
11.11. Group 4 practice lecture November 11th The students of group 4 can attend the practice lectures together with group 1,2 or 3
24.10 Clarifying a question Today after the lecture, one person asked "Do we get proofs in the exam?". I took it as in "If some proofs will be given as an exam aid, like the formula sheet." And I said no, but if it was meant "If you will be asked to prove something in exam questions", you may need to prove something (please see previous exams).
24.10 Lecture 20 and 21 Lecture 20 (28th. Oct) and 21 (31st) will be given by Espen (usual room and time of this parallel).
24.10 Formula sheet It was asked during the reference group meeting; This formula sheet is given in the exam.
21.10 Second RG meeting For feedback from the second reference group meeting see below
18.10 Typo In the last example of Lecture 17, I made a mistake; we have different values for line integrals over two different curves. See the updated notes.
23.09 First RG meeting We got very constructive feedback from the first reference group meeting. See below
14.09 First RG meeting The first reference group meeting is planned on 23.09, Friday. We appreciate any constructive feedback.
01.09 Reference Group Reference group is assigned. See below.
29.08 Typo There was a typo in the last example, there should be square in the denominator (see the note "Lect 3").
24.08 Notes and slides Notes and slides are uploaded in this page (see below).

This parallel is taught in English.

Meeting 1:

Feedback:

  • Recap of previous lectures is good;
  • lectures are well prepared;
  • the lecturer should spend more time on writing, to write more clearly (often some specific letters are difficult to read);
  • because of long waiting time in some exercise sessions, and lack of problem solving sessions, it is difficult to start solving exercises (don't know where/how to start);
  • rather than detailed proofs of theorems, concrete examples of explaining why it matters, would be appreciated;
  • to engage everyone, asking questions may help.

Meeting 2:

Feedback:

  • Number of exercise problems seems to be appropriate for understanding the course and being prepared for the exam;
  • handwriting is fine (students also got used to it);
  • after the beginning of the complex analysis part, it got easier to start solving exercises;
  • since the exam is on 28th Nov, it would be helpful to publish all the remaining exercises soon;
  • clarify what is allowed in the exam (formula sheet).

Meeting 3:

Feedback:

  • Throughout the semester, uploading the notes has been very useful.
  • As a whole course, Math 4K is (perceived as) a difficult course. Especially the PDE part.
  • Complex Fourier series and PDEs could have been explained, by spending more time in the lecture.
  • Otherwise students seemed happy with the lecture.
