Quotes:
The curriculum was at times heavy to cope with (but it needed to be as well - a good kick off!) I wish the group discussions was better - I felt the lack of (really) understanding the curriculum made discussions hard for us to do effectively and the value of them was not as high as I initially though it would be. […]
The course in general - being able to get so quickly into relevant curriculum for my thesis is very much appreciated.
[…] to really understand the theories, I would gladly have joined a repetition-session; this would probably created more room for discussion, as we now are more familiar with theories presented.
The timeframe is pretty good, but I felt I did not have time to really understand concepts and theories properly before we moved on. On the other hand, this is a introduction to the theoretical aspect of TI, so I fully understand the schedule etc.
