Summary of reference group discussions
First meeting (19.09.2013)
- Lecturer is well prepared and good in answering questions during the break
- Breaks should be not shorter than 15 minutes
- Exercises are too hard
- More examples that are not in the book would be interesting
- Avoid erasing blackboard too early
- Handwriting on blackbord should be improved (small x versus capital X, …)
- How is the level of exercise problems compared to exam
- Trial exam?
Second meeting (7.11.2013)
- Lectures and exercises are satisfactory
- Choice of exerise problems is good
- Examples/proofs in the lecture can be easily followed
- Project was well chosen and interesting.
- For next generations it might be good to hand out lecture notes
- Avoid erasing or covering blackboard too early
- Handwriting on blackboard should be further improved.
- Summary of relevant part of the book for the exam would be helpful. Maybe mention whether certain topics from former exams are no longer relevant.
- A question/discussion hour before the exam would be good
Final meeting (21.11.2013)
- Be careful with covering blackboards to early
- Lecture content is well explanined
- If time runs out at the end of the semester, it might be better to skip parts of the curriculum instead of running through.
- Real summary within the lecture would be good
- More help to exercises. Suggestion: Present difficulties of current worksheet, and then present similar problems.
- Maybe 1.5 hours of exercises, instead of 45 minutes.
