Reference group

If you have any remarks, request, complaints etc. regarding this course, contact the lecturer and/or the reference group:

Meeting 18.9.:

• The students are for the most part satisfied with the course, lectures and exercises. Systematic lectures, good notes.
• Some consern about high speed during lectures especially in the early weeks, but it seems students appreciate extra details/explainations. The lecturer will work to reduce the speed without sacrificing explainations.
• Some students find scaling particularly difficult.
• Q1: Post slides from lectures? Yes, they will be posted before the exam.
• Q2: What will be lectured next week? See 'Lectures' in left menu.

Meeting 15.10.:

• The students are for the most part satisfied with the course, the lectureing speed is better now.
• A statistics student feel the course is difficult compared to other courses this semester.

Meeting 25.11.:

• Evaluation of whole semester:
  • The students liked the course very much.
  • Lectures were good, very structured, good notes
  • Problems sets were long and that was good (but much longer would not do).
  • Availability of lecturer and assistent as expected. A lot of help to be found amongst other students in 'Matteland'.
  • Webpage was good and informative - above the average. Updated regularly and many students checked it several times every week.
  • The reference group worked out nicely, good cooperation with lecturer. Could and did contact him also outside of the meetings.
• Evaluation of project:
  • Main consern of many: Hard to know how much each group should do (one problem or all?)
    • Information on this existed on the course webpage, but not on the problem set.
    • Improved information was posted on the webpage after some days and a student initiative, this info seems to have been sufficient.
  • Want: More detailed info on the problem set on how to work.
    • To be taken into account next year!
  • Groups:
    • "4 out 5" registration works well.
    • Write that "it is an advantage to have a member doing numerics"
  • Presentations nice and efficient
    • single PDF with all presentations and 6 min count-down alarm was very usefull.
  • "Not all problems felt equally relevant for the exam"
