- Not the oral exam. He did not ask relevant questions.» (No, not at all)
- Some parts of the examination are hard to prepare for. Even if you have knowledge of the areas within the course, some question requires you to think beyond these limits.» (To some extent)
- The oral exams were not as I supposed they would be. They were straight questions that could have been done better by duggas. I thought they should reflect the lab work but we got no comments at all from the report that we had made.» (To some extent)
- the oral exams need some more work since the questions vere oddley stated and to a large extent depended on remembering formulas. There were also some trick questions in the oral exam, something i do not think belong there if the test is only 20 min per 3 students. The written exam vas hard but good, the oral exam was not that great.» (Yes, definitely)

- Tried to seek help at several times, no one in office» (Rather poor)
- The times availible for questions each week was ill timed with the handout and delivery deadlines of the various task. For example the HIP were delivered on monday and were due next monday. The time to ask questions were tuesday (or maybe wednesday) and it felt too early. You really had to stress yourself to work enough on the problem"s so that you could have good questions prepared so early.» (Rather poor)
- TA"s were not available during scheduled consultation time, because of conflict in schedule. Also, grades from hand-in problems and projects was very very slow!» (Rather poor)

- I spent more time on this course than other courses but learned more.» (High)
- It"s crazy, especially if you read another course with also far too much to do. Please reduce workload for next year.» (Too high)
- I have not had time to study for my other course» (Too high)
- Course workload is really a lot. Especially the amount of projects to work on. » (Too high)
- Very high workload, but I also learned a lot. The course took away lots of time from my other course, which was not so good. Sometimes you have the strength to go through one of these courses, but they really impact your result in courses taken during the same time period, and I would not have the stamina to do this kind of effort more than maybe once a year.» (Too high)
- If there are that many and extensive handins/projects then they need to contribute to a larger extent to the final grade.» (Too high)
- There is really no time for doing exercises on your own. There"s always a hip or project to be working on.» (Too high)
- Due to that this course and the other (Communication Engineering) has both a very high workload and to many different examinations. » (Too high)
- While much was done and learnt in interesting assignments/projects, the large amount of time necessary to put into these tasks made the other course suffer.» (Too high)

Genomsnitt: 3.64

- The pace is too high. It becomes difficult and causes anxiety... Not fun or motivating.» (Adequate)
- During the course it was so much to do and it was not so funny but now, when I have some distance to it, it was good and I learned a lot on it,» (Adequate)
- with a smaller workload and better oral exam it would have gotten the best review possible.» (Good)
- This really is a good course but it is sooo tough. I don"t want to suggest removal of any of the hip"s or projects since I think all of it is good, but the course load is so high.» (Excellent)
- The course covered enough ground within ASP to both understand how it works and how to actually implement it.» (Excellent)

14. What should definitely be preserved to next year?

- projects»
- project 2»
- The book»
- Projects. Great way to learn about the practical implementations of the topic.»
- nothing»
- Lechures, projects If one is to save the oral exam change the distribution of points to 10 for the report and two for the oral exam.»
- teacher»
- The course book»
- Work load»
- The labs»
- McKelvin»
- Hand in problems and projects (with labs of course)»
- well, teacher and his help should be preserved for the next year.»
- work load»
- The projects»
- Projects, Hand in problems»
- The teacher»
- The project is very good.»
- Projects 1A and 2, hand-ins.»
- lab work»

15. What should definitely be changed to next year?

- The amount of hours dedicated to the course is too big, and it is not corresponded to a 7.5 credits course. Also, the evaluation of the home assignments and laboratories is not proportionally done.»
- More practical examples, be far less generalistic at the black-board, understanding is gained from practical examples Not so many hand-ins, projects and oral exams, the amount is quite ridiculous. The one handling the oral exam for project 1a-b, had a low level of english and had a hard time understanding and making himself understood. He gave an answer to a question he had posed, although this was actually the same answer that we had already given before.»
- hand in problems»
- The amount of workload should really decrease. »
- A better way to see who much each group member has contributed to the projects.»
- project 1, it was very little relevant to the course. It was to much time to work with a project that was not so relevant to the course.»
- The goals of the projects should completely describe.»
- Exam. Too much theory, not enough practical examples to learn much from in the exam.»
- everything specially the teacher, projects and assignments. »
- That the scores were divided on both the report and the oral hearing comes as a surprise. The rules change as it suits the teachers during the course. According to course-pm the oral exam should be a disscution but there were questions and answers only. Remove oral exam and let the teacher to be in the lab instead.»
- It is very important to go through the corrected hand-ins togheter with the students!!!!! Otherwise it is impossible for the students to learn from their misstakes! It should be marked in the hand-in what was missing or wrong that resulted in a lower score, and clear answers should be presented so that the students ultimatly know how to solve it.»
- oral exam»
- The course is too oral... It could be really better, if we would not be obligated to write always what is on the blackboard. It would keep time to really understand ! Write less on the blackboard and put more lectures on the projector and more notes on the website !»
- The studiosessions were a total waste of time. I didn"t learn anything new and the TA"s wasn"t that helpful and the last session the computers wasn"t working.»
- The oral examinations should be replaced by weekly duggas unless the reports can be read properly by the examiner before the oral examination.»
- You should have the opportunity to choose your own groups in the labs! TERRIBLE!! »
- tutorials, they were not very helpfull to understand the course and not very interesting.»
- well, in my opinion, you should spend more time on theoretical explanation rather than spending more on mathematics.»
- content»
- 1. Course lecture review should be done at least once. 2. Tutorial questions are not much related to examination questions. This has to be changed according to the exam questions like.»
- Maybe two project instead of three. The third project was to close to the exam.»
- The tutorial should encourage the students to take part and stimulate students" creativity.»
- Faster grades from hand-in problems and projects.»
- I think some time needs to be freed up for those who have other demanding courses besides this one.»
- reduce homework and/or projects workload»

16. Additional comments

- Tutorial sessions and studio sessions are not efficient enough»
- the tutorials was inefficient. Should be changed a bit.»
- Teachers must be better prepared many mistakes during the lectures. Tip! Write on the board and go in the back of the hall and see if you can see what you have written. No feedback on the report just a random number as grade.»
- I like the principle of different examination parts, but three projects and oral exams, and four hand-in problems plus one exams is little to much workload, maybe just having to projects. But i liked the project, since you did something practical.»
- The project, the lectures and the book has no connection to each other. You couldn"t find solutions to the project 1a and 1b by reading the book.»
- Ashkan and Panagiota did a great job as teaching assistants, more exercise sessions with them wouldn"t hurt.»
- overall impression of the subject was good.»
- more needed to be applied»
- Overall good course!!»
- All in all a very interesting and useful course.»
