Quantum Field Theory, FUF020Status: AvslutadÖppen för svar: 2010-02-02 - 2010-03-31 Antal svar: 10 Procent av deltagarna som svarat: ?% Kontaktperson: Gabriele Ferretti»
Your own effort1. How many hours per week did you spend on this course?We mean total time, that is, it comprises the time you spent in class and the time you spent on your own work. Try to estimate the average time over the entire study period.10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.1 - This is a course which always need more time to do it.» (At least 35 hours/week) 2. How large part of the teaching offered did you attend?10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.9 - I think Per did an admirable job but it is a hard subject. If you know a little bit before about what he talks about during the lectures you"re fine, but if you see things for the first time it"s very difficult almost impossible. Therefore you HAVE to read the relevant chapters before and you must press this during the first lectures. Per did say that you should start working immediately with the problems and that is also a very good thing.» (100%) Goals and goal fulfilment3. How understandable are the course goals?10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.6 - It"s a good description of what one can do when the course is done. You of course have learned a lot about spinors and transformation properties in general too and if you want to you could add that to the description.» (The goals clearly describe what I am supposed to learn) 4. Are the goals reasonable considering your background and the number of credits?Answer this this question and the succeeding one, only if you do know the course goals.8 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.12 - It"s a general feeling that it"s a very time-consuming course, far above the 7.5 credit points it is rated at. _If_ the goals demand this much time to be spent, then they are consequently set too high.» (No, the goals are set too high) 5. Did the examination assess whether you have reached the goals?8 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.5 - The problems in P&S are good and require a lot of work.» (Yes, definitely) Teaching and course administration6. To what extent has the teaching been of help for your learning?9 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.33 - I especially like Per"s way to get Feynman rules in comparison to P&S, it"s less messy and more intuitive.» (Large extent) 7. To what extent has the course literature and other material been of help for your learning?9 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.11 - The homework problems were picked from the book which is supposed to be self-consistent, so it was natural to read it thoroughly in connection to the problems.» (Great extent) 8. How well did the course administration, web page, handouts etc work?10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.2 - It worked very well mostly, but there were some late date changes (for different reasons, but it keeps me from grading it "Very well").» (Rather well) Study climate9. How were the opportunities for asking questions and getting help?9 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.77 - Per is very clear about that he is available for questions to a large extent.» (Very good) 10. How well has cooperation between you and your fellow students worked?10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.3 - I did most work on my own, but when I talked with the others, it also worked well.» (Rather well) 11. How was the course workload?10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.7 - It"s a hard course but it has to be because it"s a complicated subject.» (High) 12. How was the total workload this study period?10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.8 - The other course ("Advanced Subatomic Physics") I took didn"t demand very much time (it didn"t "demand" it, but it would have been nice to be able to give it more time nonetheless) so the total workload was reasonable. But I seriously probably spent 90% of my time on QFT and 10% on ASP.» (Adequate) Summarizing questions13. What is your general impression of the course?10 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.6 - From what I understand QFT is a very useful technique in many areas, so it feels like a natural course to take. The fact that it is so mathematically oriented makes it easier to loose interest when one looses track of why we are manipulating all these quantities though. I found that the last lectures on the standard model renewed my interest since one started to see applications, but during the first six weeks or so it was not so clear. From my point of view it would have been nice to have a greater mix of some "real" results and the underlying theory. I understand that complete calculations aren"t possible until a lot of theory has been covered, but I think the lectures would gain in interest if the results were more emphasized, rather than just stated.» (Adequate) 14. What should be preserved to next year?- The format with hard(er) deadlines for the hand-in assignments seemed to have worked well. There where some experiments with students lecturing on some areas from the book. One problem was that this idea came late in the period (study week 4) which would be remedied next year if it was continued. I don"t know how much of a substitute for the oral exam it seems to be though. The students I saw (naturally) followed the book quite literally, and of course they learned those 6 pages or so really well, but in my opinion it doesn"t really test if they fulfilled the course goals (I don"t suggest that the ones who held lectures this year should be "punished" by having to take an oral exam as well, but if the format remains next year I think it needs to be analyzed further).»- The problems. They were very well chosen and tested a lot of different things.» - I believe presentation of some materials of the book by students can be very helpful.» - home work and exam» - the presentation by the students is a good idea to carry on for the next year also.» - The standard model theory in the end of the course and the hand-ins.» 15. What should be changed to next year?- If all the homework problems are found to be necessary for the course goals then they should remain, but if some of them could be found to be not as essential, then the course would probably get better by reducing the workload.»- Would be fun with some QCD if possible.» - I"m a little unsure about the student presentation part. If you want to use it as examination you should give everybody the same amount of time in which to present the subject. And maybe it would be best if you took the e-e+ -> mu-mu+ cross-section computation because it"s the first real physical result you get and it should be done by somebody who really knows what he/she is talking about.» - Could we change a lecturer to do this? This should be a very attracting course....» - Maybe it is a good idea to give some hint for the homework. » - More exercise classes would be great.» 16. Additional comments- Very nice introduction to the standard model. Hard to get everything the first time you see it but after a few times you start to understand things.»- I would like to thank professor Salmonson for all his efforts.» - I think there should have some other professor who could make this course more clear. This is a very important course in my mind, so hope someone who charge for this could think about the lecturer who teach this more seriously. I don"t mean Per is bad, but I think he maybe more suit for course like Advanced classical physics» - Show some pictures during the lectures will make it much more appealing»
