Quotes
More lectures and more examples and exercises. Overall more time, where we were able to get in touch with you in person, to get help the the exams. Move the lecture location to Ifi. I have not seen any advantage whatsoever, why it was held at Simula.
Very late feedback, it would be nice to know how we were doing after the first two exams, but after three deliveries we still hadn't gotten any feedback yet.
Very practical course with hand on experience on the subjects to learn about.
The first two parts of the course are well defined, and I learned a lot from solving the exams. The last part, however, was a complete mess.
The projects were quite interesting and fun to work with. Free coffee, thanks!
