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.6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.16 2. How large part of the teaching offered did you attend?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 4.83 - Since 95% wasn"t one option I dotted down 100%.» (100%) Goals and goal fulfilmentThe course syllabus states the course goals in terms of learning outcomes, i.e., knowledge, skills and attitudes to be acquired by the student during the course.3. How understandable are the course goals?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.83 - There are no goals.» (I have not seen/read the goals) 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.5 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2 5. Did the examination assess whether you have reached the goals?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3 - The course material was very wide - but it"s not the problem, the problem is that it wasn"t clear how to prepare for exam: which material was important to know? We had only one exam sample from 2008, that was outdated because the course has changed over last 3 years, and this sample wasn"t any help. Because lecturers didn"t show up on the final lecture for exam questions, we had to ask almost each lecturer individually which material to study to prepare ourselves, and then we ended up spending most of the time studying the material that wasn"t reflected in the exam. Exam to 80% consisted of the questions that I didn"t expect. » (No, not at all) Teaching and course administration6. To what extent has the teaching been of help for your learning?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.66 - Most of the lectures were just review lectures, they could be more explanatory. All teachers were repeating some material that was discussed at previous course lectures with other teachers.» (Some extent) 7. To what extent has the course literature and other material been of help for your learning?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.16 - Even though the recomended literature was informative, it was difficult to directly relate the contents of the book and the lectures. It would be better if each lecture could be tied to some literature source, that gives a more detailed description of the subject. Even though research papers can be informative, it is not a good source of knowledge for novices.» (Some extent) 8. How well did the course administration, web page, handouts etc work?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.5 - It seemed like course lecturers do not communicate with each other. For example, when we asked each one of them questions about course organisation (i.e. exam aids, project grades, etc.) they couldn"t answer, and just told us to ask other lecturer. We were supposed to have final lecture with almost all lecturers, to summarize material and ask questions about the exam, and nobody came (and nobody notified that this lecture was canceled), and we had to find lecturers ourselves.» (Rather badly) Study climate9. How were the opportunities for asking questions and getting help?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.16 - According to the lecturers, they could be contacted if questions arose with regards to the home assignements or the lectures. This worked well, to some extent. However, certain individuals were at times difficult to get hold of. Also, none of the lecturers were present at a scheduled question hour before the exam.» (Rather good) 10. How well has cooperation between you and your fellow students worked?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.83 11. How was the course workload?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 4 - In some sense the amount of work that was supposed to be done during the course was reasonable. Still, given the amount of time that was spent on the home assignements some bonus points, for the exam, should have been awarded for completing the tasks.» (High) 12. How was the total workload this study period?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3.83 Summarizing questions13. What is your general impression of the course?6 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3 - Even the subject is interesting, there is still much room for improverement.» (Adequate) 14. What should definitely be preserved to next year?- I guess projects, because they were interesting and helped to some extent with understanding of the course material.But it was said in the projects" descriptions that they will be graded, and if we do some extra exercises we"ll get better grades, but in the end we didn"t get any grades, and it doesn"t seem like projects will affect exam results.»- The assignements are interesting and should be kept. The lectures covers the entire field of molecular electronics, at least to some extent, but more effort could be made to tie everything together. In my mind the course, as well as the field as whole, two distinct parts, namely electronics made with molecular compounds and nanoscale electronic devices that incorporates single molecules. It would be good if the course was divided into these two parts and if the material was presented in a manner that better tied the theoretical aspects and the functions of devices, which are presented later, together.» - I would say every assignment.» 15. What should definitely be changed to next year?- organisation of exam should be changed, it should be clearer what is expected from the students to produce on exam.»- The order of the lectures should be rearrenged so that a each of the two main areas within the subject are discussed separately. For each of these two sequences of lectures, the theoretical aspects should be discussed first. The information in these should be intimately linked with the material that is later presented when different devices, applications and theoretical studies are discussed. Therefore, it is necessary for the lecturers to plan their individual presentations, and the home assignements they hand out, together. Also, the lecturers should provide some reference material that gives an overview of the topic that they present, which should be made available on the web page. Most importantly, a document should be made available at the start of the course that details all the subjects that will be discussed together with the goals of the course. This doccument should also include a schedule with all the lectures as well as the dates when home assignements are to be handed out and in respectively. Also, there should be some information about whether the assignements are obligatory or not and the number of bonus points, if any, that will be awarded upon completing the individual tasks. » - There should be two times to ask questions about the course, first at around two thirds into the course, then 1-2 weeks before the exam. There should be exercisesessions regarding the quantum transport part of the course. Otherwise I think a lot of people with less theoretical physics in their background will be a bit put off and actually not succeed as well as they should"ve done. The course is very good, but the organization of the course need to be more tight and some kind of leader in the decision making should be assigned. Someone should be calling the shots, which is not the case now. Or the different parts in the course should cooperate more to create soem kind of holistic learning experience. My suggestion is that you could divide the course into one smaller project part for around 3 points and the exam could be 4.5 points. This would put off a bit of the stress as well as making the projects more higher stakes and thus they will be better performed. The exam should of course decide the total grade in the course. » - Better goals! Better and more clear organization.» 16. Additional comments- students do not have enough information about final exam and how to be prepared as long as high variety of subjects in this course, so they need more exam samples to work on them.»- In spite of all misunderstandings and poor course organisation, this course didn"t kill my interest in molecular electronics.» - Very good course. I really enjoyed it. »
