Quotes:

The theory is well explained by motivated lecturers The curriculum is well organized and feels meaningful The obligatory assignments are well tied to the curriculum
Good support from the teachers. Relevant progressive home works.
The Piazza forum was great! The students could all learn from each other, and a lecturer’s answer to one student could be of use to everyone. Please never, ever use facebook though.
Even though the course felt very impersonal due to the situation. I appreciate how quick the transfer to online teaching was, and I still got something out of this course. Especially seeing as the course had only started for 1 week.
