Genomsnitt: 3.69 - john"s lectures are not quite interesting , he is teaching and writing in the board simultaneously, i couldn"t follow him . His classes are only derivative classes he can give notes of his derivations and concentrate on explanations more more.Derong yong just give the description of problem and gives us the formulae and substitute , it should be more of "how to approach the problem" rather like mathematics for a school kid» (50-75%)
- I didn´,t attend to all the lectures, because at the finishing of the lecture period I realized that to attend was useless. So instead of going to the lectures, I went to the study rooms to read the lecture notes, and I managed to understand a little bit better.» (>75%)

Genomsnitt: 3.66 - 4 long assignments , lectures and problem solving sessions with in 7 weeks consider the work load that too for a subject like vehicle dynamics» (50-75%)
- Could be hard to follow due to language barrier and lacking in pedagogic structure. » (>75%)

Genomsnitt: 2.81 - take the question paper and examine the same with the lecture notes and see for yourself how much of the problems could u attend» (Rather bad)
- The book needs improvement and has to be in coordination with the lecture.» (Rather bad)
- I would like to have a book with more explanations on the subject that will give me a better understanding.» (Rather bad)
- I think they give the general idea of what is going on in the course. I don´,t think that the typing mistakes are a big deal. Thanks to them I understood some thing from the course.» (Rather good)
- Needs to be a bit more detailed in terms of explanations.» (Rather good)
- need to modify many hingd important technical points should be explain and include some problems at end of each chapter as excercise.» (Rather good)
- Decent, could be improved by matching up with what was written on the board....i.e. there were two separate definitions of understeer gradient, one with N and the other with m.» (No opinion)

Genomsnitt: 2.54 - Sorry. Hum.. John is not able to comunicate the idea of what the stuff is about, you as a listener can not make a mental image of how the phenomena works. He just talks about it, but does not achieve to transmit. » (Very bad)
- I got lost a lot in the derivations and the point of the derivation. It needs to be related to the practicality of what the lecturer is trying to show.» (Rather bad)
- slow and unclear explanations» (Rather bad)
- Needs improvement. Does not have the active participation on the students even though we listen very carefully.» (Rather bad)
- John is always giving mathematical expressions and deriving equations .. I would appreciate if this was given as handouts and more of explanation was focussed on in the class .. Writing the derivation on the board and as well explaining didnt help that much !! » (Rather bad)
- Speed of teaching during lecture needs to decreased. It would be a good idea to give a short introduction to the derivations background & what will be taught during each lecture.
» (Rather bad)
- Lacking in pedagogic structure. » (Rather good)
8. What is your opinion of the material selected for the problem solving sessions?Matrisfråga- Considering that it is first time, it is welcome. However needs tremendous improvement.»
- They reflect to some extent what the exam is about.»
- The problem solving classes should be a little more of explanations rather than solving all the problems . I rather expect more insight on the subject rather than solving problems ONLY »

Genomsnitt: 2.68 - its a mathematics class ,,,,, it should be more of pragmatic problem solving sessions like she should teach how to approach the problems not only giving formulas in the board and copying it » (Very bad)
- Needs huge improvement.» (Rather bad)
- Could be hard to follow due to language barrier and lacking in pedagogic structure. » (Rather bad)
- Derong is good enough. She will improve with the time, it gives me the impression that it is the first time she teaches, so is good.» (Rather good)
- Some of the formulas that were followed in the problem solving session were not found in the course lecture material !! This was not encouraging !!» (No opinion)

Genomsnitt: 2.82 - Difficult question. There are parts that show how to mess with the basic concepts, but the thing is that I spent more time making the codes to work than playing with the concepts and experimenting whith them. I mean, even when I dedicated much time to the assignments, I got no time to play a little bit with the codes to see whant happened when moving the parametters up and down.
Also, in the course evaluation meetings the people said that some of the assignments were to basic, but for me every one of the assignments were very hard to understand what where asked and how to solve it.» (Rather bad)

Genomsnitt: 2.41 - four assignments gave us, a very little time to concentrate at the end» (Rather bad)
- They required too much time.» (Rather bad)
- Giving 4 assignments was not a problem . But i felt the 1st assignment didnt help and would have felt better if it was not there. The assignments were spread out over the entire study period and was till the penultimate week of the exam . This didnt help and made me even more struggle.» (Rather bad)
- Too high!» (Rather bad)
- felt hard but i always tried to put as little effort in as possible» (Rather good)

Genomsnitt: 2.95 - I´,d like to see Mathias taking charge of the lectures.» (Very good)
13. What is your opinion about using Matlab as tool in this course?- It"s all good. It"s useful and it"s familiar to me.»
- great»
- i dont know matlab when i started this course, but with class mates support i find myself writing codes at the end and made the assignments possible, thanks for using, actually it was easy to develop graphs and things than using microsoft excel»
- it is very good to use Matlab because I learned a lot.»
- Matlab is being used here in a very huge amount. Assignment 2 was terrible after we saw the solutions.»
- It was good because peple like me, that do not know too much about the use of matlab, learned how to use it. It was not too good because I messed more with matlab that with the matters of the course.»
- good but should not be the only tool...few of us dont know matlab much...so there should b some way of using excel etc as well.»
- usefull when we have to create our own code to answer the problem but rather difficult to go into the code when it is given.»
- Good.»
- It is good to get used to use matlab because it is a very important tool»
- Matlab is a good tool for learning and overviewing the entire problem. »
- very nice and i know that matlab is best tool for many things and very easily predict many parametric results.»

Genomsnitt: 3.17 (bidrar till totalt genomsnitt/jämförelseindex) - I couldn"t understand the vehicle dynamics from your lectures or problem solving sessions.It may be my fault too, but the way i feel is, it should be more pragmatic or for reason lectures could be understandable, nothing seems to have made it to my mind.» (1 (not at all))
- I got some idea of what vehicle dynamics is about, but I simply couldn´,t get the main objetctives of the course.» (2)
- Missed certain design features such as wheel angles and so on, and their effect of the driving dynamics.» (2)
- thought there would be some shark/raven» (3)

Genomsnitt: 3 - It seems to me that the course was splitted in four parts that doesn´,t had any thing to do whith each other. First, I simply couldn´,t understand what was going on in the lectures. Then the assignments seemed to talk about something different frow what I copied from the black board. Then I started to study from the lecture notes three weeks before the exam, but when I sat down to solve the problem solving sesion´,s problems, one day before the exam, it was like not having studied anything at all. It was completely a different thing. I got doubts about how some problems were solved, but there were any place to look for some information at all. Looking at the lecture notes or what I copied from the blackboard or the assignment procedures was useless. » (Poor)

Genomsnitt: 2.52 - I couldn"t really examine the exam since i am very weak in the subject.» (?)
- I don´,t have an opinion about that, because I studied for a different thing. It was like studying for the elementary course and making the exam for the advanced one. It was like something like the problems of the problem solving sesions, but they were harder. I only focused on solving what was enough to pass the exam, because going on further was away my posibilities.» (No opinion)

Genomsnitt: 2.36 - with only 26 hours gap between the previous exam and vehicle dynamics it was really damn tough» (Very bad)
- Not near enough time to finish the exam"s 5 questions.» (Very bad)
- The time in-between the exams WERE VERY VERY SHORT. I don"t know how this was made ! Its not encouraging ! It made us struggle a lot !! After assignments on the last week and ONE DAY to study for VD after the first exam was seriously not helping !» (Very bad)

Genomsnitt: 2.23 - I believe that the exam almost had a great deviation in analysing our understanding» (Very bad)
- Not at all.» (Very bad)
24. What should definitely be preserved to next year?- The assignments, and the report structure for them. They are really a great help for learning.»
- Matlab as tool»
- may be assignments , nothing more»
- Mathias.»
- assignment sessions n the assistance seem quite good.»
- amount of help given on assignments...»
- Almost everything»
- The Assignments 1,3 and 4»
- The assignments»
25. What should definitely be changed to next year?- Maybe a little less derivation of equations during lectures and more focus on relating equations to real world scenarios.»
- more question and answer sessions should be provided next year in preparation for the examination»
- except the subject"s name every thing should be changed or improved»
- new lecturer»
- The workload of assignments should be reduced. The lecture must be made interesting.»
- The structure of the course, the lectures, the lecture notes, the problem solving sessions, the assignments. All of them should match one each other.»
- assignments are good but need to reduce some burden by reducing the no of assignements.»
- If the exam gives 3 points, it should not be as an 7.5 point exam. The assignments gave 4.5 points and the exam 3. The assignments gave enough to do during the course... But throwing in an exam that is as tough as in a 7.5 point course is just not fair. We had too little exercises to practice on for the exams. When we looked back at how the exams where in the previous years, 2006-2008, we saw that they were much easier than the past few years. »
- 1 - Please give more time to study for the exam - give more time after the previous exam or make it the first exam.
2 - Please make the course book more explanatory
3 - Please give handouts of all the derivations and provide more explanations in the class rather than what was followed this year.
4 - Please make the Assignments submissions last date 2 weeks before the exams so that we get to concentrate more on the exam.»
- the lack of preparation for the exam during the solving problem sessions, not enough explanations about the exercices.»
- Assignment 2.»
26. Additional comments- Thanks for a good course!»
- My expectations of the course were like understanding n important part of the Milliken´,s. I look at it and I recognize a little bit of a little bit of the chapters, but I don´,t feel like having had a course about vehicle dynamics, the difference from what I know and understand after the course and what is written in that book is still enormous.»
- need to reduce the burden a bit as far as assignents are concerned..
it would b more better to give some problems to solve as a home assignment and to submit them instead of the fourth assignment. »
