The respondents in general found this course to be Good. Most students rated the difficulty as being OK or Difficult. Overall the respondents said that the work load was OK, with a few selecting Large. Some students felt that there should be more Assessments underway (part of the examination) and Hours in computer terminals/laboratories in the course. Some felt that there should be less Obligatory assignments. The online course presentation is rated in general as being OK, with respondents in general being able to find the information they needed. It appears that students also felt that the obligatory assignments’ difficulty level was OK or High, and that the difficulty level of the final examination was Too high.

From the text responses it seems that a few students were critical of the lecture slides and presentation, noting that the slides were reused from other courses and that the online presentation is not always in line with the content of the lectures.

Quotes:

Great book, useful assignments.

[…] Too much reading material in the curriculum in the addition to it noe being able to single out whats important for the exam

We fell a bit behind: the course is a bit too long for one semester.
