Genomsnitt: 3.18

- I got the impression that the lecturer was very lazy and didn"t want to do too much work in the course» (Poor)
- I found it to be a very good introduction to linear programming and what can be done with it.» (Good)

14. What should definitely be preserved to next year?

- project based evaluation, exercise evaluation. Interactivity with the teacher during lectures»
- the labs and the lectures like they were this year.»
- The different options of examination»
- The use of glpk is pretty useful, just like the great number of LP problem we have seen. The duality have also been well presented.»
- The set of problems.»

15. What should definitely be changed to next year?

- better structured course.»
- clearify important steps of the algorithm, they are explained in the lecture but easy to miss»
- don"t know»
- maybe the exam, I think it is more for doing the course instead of an examination, to test if everyone did some of the lab work you could for example make a short oral talk about the labs.»
- It would be nice to get a summation of each lecture as a pdf. It is recommended that the course introduce a few mandatory hand-in exercises each week to get students going earlier.»
- Maybe we could spend more time on the Simplex algorithm, at least during the exercice course.»
- More efforts in the administration around the course. * There were 3 different gradings for the course, and no information on which was the correct one. (One where a subjective measure on the assignments would be done, one where there would be points given both on the set of problems and the take home exam/project, with 70% of the grade is based on the exam/project, and finally on the take home exam a grading purely based on the points given on the exam) * The examination shouldn"t change during the course. (The set of problems appeared in the middle of course) * Better prepared excercise sessions. At some of them we just sat there wondering what would happen, no information at all about what should be done or what would happen. * Better prepared lectures. Preferably an overview of the lectures from the beginning. And preferably a set of lecture notes on the webpage afterwards. Not just a link to someone elses lecture, or which section in the course book. * The projects should be better specified. "based on ... discussed in class" requries either a very good memory, or a very good set of lecture notes to be sure that the details are correct. * It would be good with several assignment deadlines, not just 2 in the end of the course. 2 smaller set of problems during the course would be better.»

16. Additional comments

- Good course, We were just a little dissapointed the way the labs were graded, doing all the extra parts, it works perfectly, and than getting a 3??? » (den här kommentaren har blivit redigerad i efterhand)
