1. It was clear from the beginning what was expected of me in the course.5 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.8 - There was a general deficiency in communication, from the website to expectations to even basic things like the due dates and how many references needed for a paper. I would say the expectations were decipherable, but it could be clearer.» (3) 2. Do you think that you had enough knowledge to take the course?- Yes.»- yes» - Yes» - yes» - yes» 3. As a whole, how satisfied are you with the course?- Satisfied. I enjoyed the material but, again, it could be improved with better communication.»- I have a problem with the lack of feedback on the home exams. It was explained in the beggining that we are going to get feedback between each of them but that did not happened.» - Ok» - Quite satisfied. The course was demanding, in a good way. However, the short time and somewhat ambiguous instructions made it difficult to fully appreciate and take advantage of the tasks. Also, I don"t feel that the examination fully tests what I actually learned. » - Not very, although I have learned a lot, the communication should be much better. » 4. Regarding lectures, seminars, projects, etc you have participated in: Please mention three good things in the course and three things that can be improved.- Lecture topics were fine. The project idea is fine. The format for the home exams is interesting as well. Improvements: 1. Better communication. There were far too many people confused for this class...and it was around everything. There was not enough information on the website, nor were things often explained in class. 2. The project and the home exams represent too much work for the class. Either dial down the requirements for one or the other. Also, the requirement for four sources that are not from the lecture for each home exam seems a bit arbitrary. 3. Assignments were not graded in a timely manner. If the student meets the assigned deadline, then the assignment should be graded and the teacher ready to offer feedback within a reasonable amount of time. As it is, we have not received feedback or grades on home exam #2 or #3.»- The structure of the course was fairly good, but since there was a huge delay on the feedback, most of us were not aware of how we are doing, or if we are on the right track or not.. therefore I can"t say I get much knowledge out of this course. » - Good to get contacts within a company, to learn how companies work. Improve more practical work instead of seminars and reading exercises. A projectreport of 15-20 pages for a course of 7.5 points is over the edge to much at same time as other stuff. Could be about 8 pages instead, with less rubbish written. Why do they have mandatory lectures? When they are about 1 hour tops.» - 3 good things: 1) Interesting guest lectures 2) Good seminar structure overall 3) The project in combination with the home exams were very rewarding. I learned a lot. 3 things to improve 1) I felt that, while I learned some from the home exams, they tested how much I wanted a high grade, not how much I learned. The true value from the home exams came through in the project, not the exams themselves. 2) Some seminar/home exam questions were rather uninteresting. Some lectures were valuable but thier correspinding seminars were not. 3) Information was very ambiguous, uncertain and hard to find. Having to remember instructions give through e-mail, verbally, on the website and through slides is not possible. All important information should be available on the website so that it is accessible and trustworthy (up-to-date). » 5. The information about the examinations was clear.5 svarande
Genomsnitt: 1.6 - Not really, and again this goes to the overall poor communication. The example home exam was useful but, as an example, the references requirement was not communicated and it caused a lot of problems for many people. Also, as far as home exam #1 went, Fang did a good job filtering out the bad questions, however, not so much for home exam #2 and #3. The questions for those were quite poor and made it difficult to write a good paper.» (1, Do not agree at all.) 6. The information about schedules was good.5 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3 - The schedule should have more detail, but it was extremely helpful to have the google calendar option. Please continue this (or some other way to easily subscribe to a course calendar).» (3) 7. How did you experience the physical work environment?- Fine.»- It was ok» - Some days the ventilation was terribly bad which made it difficult to concentrate. I seriously considered leaving the room a couple of times. » - Good» 8. How did you experience the psychological work environment?- Fine.»- Lack of reliable information was cause of some irritation. Group work and other cooperation worked fine. » - Good» 9. The course literature such as books, articles, and compendia functioned as a good support in your studies.5 svarande
Genomsnitt: 3 - Articles were interesting.» (3) 10. You have acquired the knowledge and skills specified in the goals of the course plan?5 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.75 - I don"t feel that the examination actually tests what I"ve learned in a good way. I don"t understand the emphasis on the home exams, I think it"s unmotivated. If the purpose is to set individual grades then in-group grading and ranking is a better method to single out slackers.
The learning outcomes state that one goal (practical goal number one) is "To have practical experience on performing the human-centered design process for product development to be able to reach high usability level.". We have done no such thing during the course. The project was all about the second practical goal. » (3) 11. What do you think about the teachers’,,pedagogical abilities? (Could they explain course content in a comprehensive way?)- They are knowledgeable about HCD, and so they have a lot to offer,however, they would be served by improving their communication skills and english ability.»- No, not really because their intentions were not kept.» - Better english pronounciation, wouldn"t be bad.» - For me the language barrier was frustrating at times. Some grammatical errors were very peculiar and, since I don"t understand the mistakes behind them, I had to guess the intended meaning. For example, on page 3 for the slides of L2: What does "But, once they get, they can see how it can be improved or they don’,t like it (?)" ask a question, make a statement, and if it makes a statement, does it state that once the user "gets" the user will understand or won"t understand? And does "get" refer to the the idea, the product or the goal? Not confusing terms like usable, usability, useful etc. would also help, since they simply mean different things. I appreciated the broader and more diverse perspective that the guest lectures gave. I think the course did a good job of connecting the academic world with the industry world. It would probably work even better if there was even more time. The combination of home exams, lectures, seminars and project work very well together. Together they give an in-depth understanding and combine theory with "real life". The concept works well and should continue to be tweaked and improved (it"s a little rough at the moment).» - Could be better, but sufficient» 12. It was clear from the beginning what was expected of me in the course.4 svarande
Genomsnitt: 2.75 - Isn"t this the same as the first question?» (?)
