Comment

Quotes

Lack of enthusiasm across all group lectures.

There is not enough support and help from group assignment tutor(teacher). There must be a lot more help and support in case of group assignment.

Insanely out of date. CROBA has not been used commercially in over 6 years and is of no value anymore. Why do you not even mention REST?? The same goes for Java-rmi. The assignments were pretty fun to do but that doesn't really help when you are teaching dead technology.

Insanely boring. All of the lecturers drone on and on and almost never use examples or anything creative in their lectures, doesn't even matter which lecturer it is, both of them are equally terrible.
