Summary:

The respondents' general impression of the course was Very good. They reported that the course's difficulty level was Appropriate to Difficult, and that the amount of work required in relation to the number of credits given was Appropriate. The participants who reported attending the lectures considered their quality to be Very good. The difficulty level and the number of graded mandatory assignments were regarded as Appropriate, while the amount of work associated with them was rated Appropriate to Large. The respondents thought the difficulty level of the final exam was Appropriate.

The respondents generally thought the course was interesting, useful and well taught. It should be noted that this survey had a low response rate, only about half of the respondents reported attending the lectures regularly. The lecture notes were useful, while the lecture recording practice could be improved. The graded mandatory assignments appear to have been useful. Some respondents thought that the course information was given at too many different platforms and that GitHub should have been used for storing assignment files.

Quotes:

Genuinely interesting and useful.

Lecture notes were easy to follow even though I did not attend lectures.

Basic knowledge of C is important before signing up for the course.

Stick to one platform regarding handing out information about the course. Seems to be distributed across piazza, course page, and by mail.
