Teaching and course administration

6. Which project did you work with and to which extent do you think your project task was aligned with the course goals?

Matrisfråga

- What was hard with this project was the setting of the goal, which affected the planning report especially. Those setting the grade was not satisfied with the goals because they were to unclear. But sitting on the opposite side trying to create goals we do not even understand, decreases the quality quite significant compare to other projects with specific goals. Maybe it should not be a problem but I still think it should be considered and known by the examiners somehow. »
- The project title was misleading. Our group members expected a CAD-model from the company that we would use for our analyses. Instead, we had to design a wind turbine ourselves, perform CFD analyses and finally solid analyses. This was much more than expected and since most of us did these specific tasks (unsteady 2D-CFD, transient FEM) for the first time, it took much longer than expected. Overall, the task was a bit too complex for a short project course.»

7. Which project did you work with and how do you rate the supervision within the project?

Matrisfråga

- The supervision from our university supervisor was very good. He took a lot of time and was always very helpful and friendly. The supervision from the company was very poor, however. We never met the actual inventor of this type of wind turbine but only the business man. Though, the input from the company was not very helpful since the business man did not know so much about the technology itself.»

- Stupid idea!» (Bad)
- Not necessary if everyone works hard in the group » (Bad)
- The teachers sounded very sveptical at the feedback so i think that is a strange way to get graded» (Indifferent)
- I think our grading where quite different within the group mostly because it is hard to se a clear line between different grades in som cases. Also I think you should change the last criteria so that you don"t get fail atomatic if your are late once or twice (criteria say always on time on grade 2-5)» (Indifferent)
- did not affect final grade» (Indifferent)
- It is extremely hard to grade your own team members, especially if you know them well. » (Indifferent)
- Should definitely have a bigger impact on the grade! » (Good)
- It can be good if someone hasn"t done anything and I think it is good to include even thoungh it is difficult to grade your team members.» (Good)
- I think this is a good measure of individual performance/contribution. This is otherwise hard to see for the examiners or supervisors.» (Good)

- Enjoyed the variety of projects to choose from before course start, all seemed interesting and it was hard to choose. » (Excellent)

20. What should definitely be preserved to next year?

- Presentation and the way it was achieved. I think the schedule for it was good. It was good that the project finished in week 8 before the exams.»
- - Choice of at least 5 different projects - Good supervision (examiners, supervisors, ANSYS etc.)»
- Different projects to choose from. »
- Good that not not mandatory to be present during all presentations of other groups. The variety of projects. »

21. What should changed to next year/where do you see opportunity for improvement?

- Clearer goal for the project»
- Higher impact from personal grades, teachers on exercises and a better schedule (earlier). »
- Hand in a draft of the planning report. And I think it is good if both examiners looks at the reports to get a fair grade for all reports. »
- - Providing a balanced number of projects concerning fluid analysis, solid analysis and structural analysis. This quarter, there was rarely a project dealing with structural analysis. - No misleading project descriptions»
- The individual grading system. Perhaps it can be changed so it does not include grading yourself and your team members. An individual session with the supervisor where one can discuss the other team members contribution could be an option. »

22. Additional comments

- I think the grading was fair, but I think the feeling I got from the teachers were that the writing of the report was not a big deal. It was graded more seriously than the attidude towards it was during the writing. Another thing that is not just about this course is that it should be considered to create a computer room for simulations with more powerful computers.In that case half of the computer rooms do not need to be occupied because the simulations have to run and the time needed would decrease. It would be great if this could be solved as it would help the students a lot. »
