Goals and goal fulfilment

- The schedule was marked preliminary during all course and was changed several times, only with oral announcement at the lectures. I think there should be a final version available at least one week before start of the course and that it then shouldn"t be changed at all. If it has to be changed (it should be an exception due to illness or similar) a mail should be sent out to all participants and the schedule on the web page should be updated. » (Rather well)

- In general the assignments were good but there were a few parts that consumed a lot of time without contributing to the understanding of the acoustics, time that could have been better spent. For example the matlab calculation of assignment A, task 2a, was frustrating and needs to be simplified in some way to the next year. Also one could question the usefulness of putting quite a few extra hours on writing the report on a computer instead of handwriting. Especially equations takes a lot of time to type in MS Word or similar software, and it is a skill that you very seldom use at a work (unless you continue with doctoral studies). I mean that you can learn how to write reports everywhere and that the hours of the course instead should be focused on understanding acoustics. » (a bit too difficult)

- It would have been better to have a bit harder exercises with longer time for working with them, and to get each exercise corrected before the next should be handed in. The delays in the assignment dates were a bit annoying.» (adequate.)

- The corrected assignment is important as feedback, to be used in the following assignment. A one week deadline for returning the corrected assignment would be proper.» (completely)

- There are exelent oportunities to ask,the problem is that i dont ask as much as i should and i have seen the same problem with other people in the class, my suggestion is to have a FAQ database, might be possible to have it on the webpage, refering to each lecture, it might work similar as a blog where students can formulate specific questions and maybe create a debate on certain topics. Im not sure about how possitive this might be because then less questions will be done during lectures.» (Very good)

Genomsnitt: 4

- The course covers alot, maybe abit to much to grasp everything at this rate.» (Adequate)

22. What should definitely be preserved to next year?

- The way that the lectures are organized, the material that is provided, the exercises, everything fits perfect within the course and iterect perfect with the others: SVM and IPC»
- All stuff »
- everything»
- The very fine teachers Wolfgang and Astrid and the homely and friendly atmosphere of Applied Acoustics.»
- The basic structure with lectures, asigments and oral exam.»

23. What should definitely be changed to next year?

- more exercise lectures, more time for the course, this course should be presented in on semester whole not in one quarter.»
- maybe it could be good to have more exercise lectures»
- Keep to one schedule (see comment to question 12). Reduce time spent on non acoustic matters of assignments (see comment to question 13). »
- Have the assigments ready for handout on time.»

24. Additional comments

- Due to the lack of questions from the students, i would like to have a questionary maybe from each main topic with open questions similar as those formulated during a lecture (where everybody turns to look each other and everywhere and wait until the profesor answer),that make the students to think and describe with simply words about different possibilities, configurataion, systems,to me is easier to start thinking from a question than only reading the lectures notes with the theory, i think this kind of questions help a lot to imagine and create a better picture of the problem and then be able to describe it with my own words, then the mathematical numerical procedures will be reach with a better understanding, im not refering to questions like in the problems during the exercises that require numerical analysis. I hope the intension of this suggestion is clear,if not just contact me to talk about it, thanks.»
- wolfgang conducts the lectures very well and he explained complex physical concepts in an easy language, admirable....»
- A good course!»
