- A lot of content in a tight schedule» (Adequate)
- » (Good)
- The lectures are really good & intersting. The concept of 4 cases is quite good too. The trouble is the first pre-reading during the same week than the first test. We don"t have time to work for the test and do seriously the readings.» (Good)
- I think the workload is a little extreme, it is the most i"ve had to work in all my master courses» (Good)
- Even Though the workload is way greater than i expected it helped me overcome some problems, such as, innability to talk in public. » (Good)
- High workload, though high learning outcome.» (Excellent)
- I enjoyed lectures of Jan as well as Lars very much. Thank you.» (Excellent)
- How ever, it has contained a lot, really a lot of information under a relatively short period of time, so it will probably take a while for most of it to sink in.» (Excellent)
- Though not many competitors due to this being my first period here.» (Excellent)
- Theatrical lectures-enjoyable, full of personal experiences and anekdotal moments-that turn around into our minds for weeks afterwards (who knows..probably even for years as well? ). It"s true..noone forgets a good play/film.» (Excellent)
- Excellent course, given by Excellent teacher!» (Excellent)
- High workload, High knowledge gain.» (Excellent)
- A lot of work, but I learnt a lot. Jan and Lars are both great teachers.» (Excellent)
- One of the better courses I"ve taken.» (Excellent)
- I have been motivated to learn because this course showed me the interseresting side of project management. The focus was not about learning as much stale theory as possible. And then barf out said theory at a 4 hour megaexam. The ongoing process with cases was good and steady stream of interesting articles gave me much pleasure.» (Excellent)
- I really, really liked the class! It was a lot of fun and I learned quite a lot! » (Best course ever)
- Nog den kurs som känts mest givande. Kanske har att göra med att det är en rätt bred kurs och vi inte läser andra liknande ämnen. Tycker man får lite mersmak för ämnet även om jag har svårt att se mig själv som PM i framtiden.» (Best course ever)
- A great lecturer made this one of the best courses ever!» (Best course ever)

About the course

6. This helped me understand the Basics of Project Management

- Firstly I must say that Jan is an excellent, outstanding teacher. On top of that, I would like to thank all the staff of this course, but especially Lars because he teaches for passion and it is simply inspiring. I never will forget his lectures.»
- Why is the basic test done after 2 weeks ? Do you really believe that we are able to absorb all these notions in 2 weeks ? If you do, please communicate more with foreign students, because I (and some other French students) didn"t really believe you when you told us that we have to read this book in two weeks. For the lectures: nothing to report, really good and interesting»
- I joined the course in week three. Reading Maylor at the moment but it´,s a hard question for me to answer.»
- because reading 400pages in the first 2 weeks of your master programm is quite hard... Lars commitment was helpful to pay attention to the important parts of the book.»
- I would have learnt more from the Maylor book if I had gotten more time to read it.»
- Did not read the book that much.»
- Lars would present a lot of good real life experiences that helped to connect the theorectical ideas with the practical ones, and be able to analyse better each situation »
- I think this course is really well built.»
- Gillar alla historier och anekdoter, blir lättare att relatera till och komma ihåg.»
- I found no cliff notes. But did not look for them either.»
- The thing that helped me understand PM the best was the team-working sessions when you could reflect on each team members behaviour and how they changed the way we worked.»

7. The Pre-readings

- »
- This was (will be ?) an extremely hard excercise for me, as said previously, accademical approach is not what i am used to. This is my final year, and i never read any article of that kind for the courses at my home university.»
- Unfortunately I didn"t have time to handle all of the pre-readings properly and even to delivery them with more quality. However, the teacher was very clear about this hurry pace in the beginning of this course, thus, to take it was my own option.»
- "I would have invested the same effort in the preparatory work without the hand-ins being mandatory": Yes I would, but only if the teachers pointed out when and why we should read them and that is was important.»
- Learning the reflective writing style came more over time.»
- See question n°1. Problem of timing for the first pre-reading»
- That the pre-reading was mandatory was a good thing I would say, what was better was that it was okay to decrease quality as long as it was done. In this way it forced us to read it and reflect, if it was not mandatory other things would have taken that time instead (e.g. other courses, or just simply spare time) point being, at least I would not have done it, and therefor missed out on a great learning experience. Probably others as well.»
- Most of the pre-reading texts were very interesting.»
- Much time went into reading the papers, even if we were to speed reed them. It might be easy for someone with a doctors degree in a subject to speed read materials related to the subject, but NOT for most of us students. Much more time went into gaining any understanding of the articles than "15 minutes top".»
- Bra med obligatorisk läsning. Annars gör man så lite som möjligt.»
- NEVER give a student the option to NOT read something, because then the student will not read it.»

8. The Stand-alone Lectures

Matrisfråga

- The closing lecture is tomorrow so I can"t judge it yet.»
- "Introduction to Microsoft Project": It was as good as it could be with that short time. But I really think it was way to little time to learn that program.»
- Maybe you should change the introduction to MS Project. It"s not at all Lars fault ! It"s just, attending a lecture to learn how to use a software, without having it, it"s almost useless. If we don"t practise in the same time than Lars, it"s really hard to remember what he said. The idea of a MS Project introduction is really good, but you should do a lab, the results will be better.»
- The MsProject-lecture was good and all, but it is hard to have a demo-lecture about a software, it is much easier to be able to click around by your self. Perhaps it would have been better with an exercise session, and given some minor tasks to performed while being supervised and able to ask direct questions about any surfacing problems.»
- Jan"s lecturing style was very good and really helped building interest for the subject. The "Shadows of Project Management" lecture was the definitely the best lecture of this course. »
- Jan seems passionate about the topic, which makes his lectures sound very interesting and I could easily listen through the whole lecture without daydreaming. Also, integrating his stories into the teachings was made in a very smooth fashion which also made me more interested in listening to what he had to say.»
- Kommer inte ihåg mycket från Marias lektion. Har för mig att den var rätt sövande. Mer interaktion med publiken och historier/exempel kanske hade hjälp till.»
- More like, "This was an awesome lecture"»
- To far back for me to remember the first three lectures.»

9. The Organizing Case (Jan Wickenberg)

- Excellent!»
- Willing to go to deep into the questions, integorating people on what they learnt about the case. I needed more preparation before this, to get to know the people i will try to extract knowledge from.»
- I did not really like discussing (interviews etc) with just ONE group.»
- Haven"t been on any seminar before so didn"t know much I were supposed to prepare, would be nice to explain i bit before.»
- Very little time to talk with the other group. Most time was spent by lecturer talking to us. Would have been good to have more discussion time.»
- I didn"t attend the seminar»
- One hour more to get more time to discuss at the seminar would have been good.»
- The case seminar discussions really help build further understanding of the texts of this case.»
- If I remember correctly there wasn"t really that much information about the actual case on the case lecture, I"d appreciate some more but understand that was hard to give out without compromising the task.»
- It was really hard to understand some concepts behind the tests presented. Galbraid and Mintzberg revealed to be a challenge »
- Because I was late at the first seminar, I had to go to the next one. Thus, it was a little bit less interesting to do it with my group.»

10. The Planning Case (Per Svensson & Lars Hallin)

- It feels like we spent more focus on learning how to use MS project than on learning the principles and concepts of planning.»
- Lars Hallin presented the case lecture good, Per Svensson not that much.»
- Most students were uncomfortable during this seminar, felt like few understood what the teacher asked or wanted from us. Lots of misunderstandings. Things got better during the ms project part.»
- Discussion was not encouraged at the seminar. When someone made a comment Per would say something like: yes, but thats not what I"m thinking of, or yes but lets discuss that later.»
- Per Svensson"s spoken English was not satisfactory. This made him look insecure and destroyed his credibility to some extent. I think the Case in it"s entirety was good but maybe a different lecturer next year.»
- Per is not good presenter unfortunately. IDK what to do with him though. Better presenter is more important than actual knowledge in the field.»
- The main problem I found with this case was the structure of the seminar. It was great to go through some of the plans and discuss them but the rest of the seminar felt more lika a Q&A structure and not a real discussion. Per asked a question and the we answered. I would have liked a structure more like the first seminar.»
- The seminar should have been more connected to the work we"d done, and should be started from the point we were at. As it was now, we started out very slowly by writing down bullets on the board - remaking the work we had been doing which was a waste of time. I would have liked to spend more time going through people"s plans in the way Lars was doing.»
- Per is the opposite to Jan, he makes the good stuff sound very boring. I"m sure he has got a lot of knowledge though, and I understand why he"s teaching this course.»
- Lars was very good an inspiring. Not to be judgemental but Per was the only bad thing about this course, dont know if it was due to him speaking english or presentation skills, but the feeling to discribe his lectures and presentation is awkwardness.»
- the case lecture was boring (sorry but it is the truth).»

11. The Contracting Case (Arni Halldorsson & Sara Rogerson)

- Sooo many different opinions where dressed from the very same case study, no consensus = lack of appropriation of the case ?? i could not tell.»
- This was the only case that was a bit confusing. I"m still not sure what contracting concerns and would have needed more basics in the introduction.»
- It was a little bit hard to focus and listen as all groups present the same thing. Even though it actually had a pretty good deviation in the different presentations.»
- Grading was strange»
- The ending comment from each group that was recorded felt a bit unnatural and awkward.»
- The case seminar would be even better if more time for structured discussions were allowed. Increasing time without increasing group size is hard so maybe shorten the presentations a bit in the future.»
- The presentation is great - but there should be less requirements on the essay it was too much work.»
- In this case the only problem was to interpret the assignment given since it was very particular. »
- Arni should really have some "konstpauser" in his presentations, I could not follow him more than for 20-30 secs in a row.»
- Mr Halldorsson was quite hard to understand.»

12. The Learning Case (Jan Wickenberg)

- Roles repartition in the team lead to poor quantity of knowledge acquired in this case»
- The case seminar discussions was very good.»
- I will probably never forget the watch that didn"t work and the metaphor Jan illustrated by using it as an example.»
- Great case ! »

13. The Course Administration

- Initial teething problems with the first lecture not lining up with time-edit was an issue»
- iCal also accessible via timeEdit»
- It was a little confusing that there were two versions of the PM online. Weekly e-mails was excellent. I"ll miss that kind of attention in my next course.»
- Unfortunately the schedule changes were made the day before the class, or even in the morning of the same day, I usually check my classes a day or two ahead.»
- I noticed that there were more old basic exams on the archived course page. That was good and I think those should have been included to this course page aswell.»
- I only used the course PM to check the instructions for the pre-reading hand-in.»
- iCal is available from TimeEdit, would be better if teacher used that system seeing how all other courses do that.»
- This course was changing many hours and many rooms. To be honest it was quite difficult to remember,and I didn"t like this very much. And though it was only for a few lectures...8 in the morning is too early for Lindholmen! :) 8.30 feels better! »
- on the first couple of weeks, I really had problems with the schedule and lectures. I used to check TimeEdit on those weeks. That cost me a lot.»
- The (unfinished) new student portal made hand-ins unnecessarily complicated. Maybe use a more stable system such as fire in the future.»
- I thought the different tasks in the course PM could be separated a bit better... it all seemed like a big mess in the PM.»
- You need to keep the weekly e-mail ! Such useful !»
- I use iCal, therefore this was very good to synch with.»
- the fact that there was a BAD schedule available online on time-edit I missed two lectures. Please remove any schedule that does not work, for the best of the students.»

Having the course schedule as an iCalendar subscription file was useful to me

- I"m biased because I live near Johanneberg! But I also like the Johanneberg environment better than Lindholmen.» (I would have preferred Johanneberg)
- I had another course at Johanneberg, and it"s closer to home.» (I would have preferred Johanneberg)
- I would only have preferred it at Johanneberg because its closer to home. » (I would have preferred Johanneberg)
- Closer of my accomodation.» (I would have preferred Johanneberg)
- I live close to Johanneberg.» (I would have preferred Johanneberg)
- This depends on what other course you are reading at the same time, which if different for a lot of students. There will always be conflicts.» (Either place would have been fine by me)
- Johanneberg is still my "home" campus, but I don"t mind being at Lindholmen as long as I don"t have to travel between the two campuses.» (Either place would have been fine by me)
- As long as all courses in the master programme during the same study period is at the same campus, I don"t really care.» (Either place would have been fine by me)
- i couldn"t have taken it if it were on johaneberg» (I preferred it were it was, at Lindholmen)
- Have both courses at same place is good so no stressing between places ( as you might know from experience of Göta-älvbron), also I live at lindholmen :D» (I preferred it were it was, at Lindholmen)
- Omväxling förnöjer» (I preferred it were it was, at Lindholmen)

15. The Odd Questions

- I wish i could by me some memory somewhere...»
- I like to keep an open mind.»
- Haha I want answer these, nice try!»
- I really learned some valuable things in this course from the paradigms and stories.»
- Yay!»
- Though Buchanan presents an oposit point of view than Argyris, I think that keeping in mind both the perspectives and reacting due to the circumstances inside an organisation, can bring the best effects. Of course believing in the motivation of people is a nice way of thinking and handdling life, but be realistic. Politics exist and people have to haddle it smart to show their commitment and their special value. »
- EPIC questions! :D»
- The refraction of light is explained by Huygens-Fresnel principle.»
- A little bit of both Buchanan and Argyris, please!»

Huygens theorem explains the refraction of light

- We will see if i was right saying high after the grades of the quarter. I have taken 3 courses including yours. Failing one would make me change to too high» (High)
- High in a good way.» (High)
- Its hard for me to say as I haven´,t still really caught up, but I started in the middle of week 3 and I feel that I have caught up on everything except for the test that I will probably have to do after christmas.» (High)
- High nearing too high but that was only because the other course was equally demanding. Would have been better if it was possible to focus more on this course.» (High)
- The first two weeks were very intense with the studying for the basics exam, high activity in my other course as well as a lot of work with my involvement in the student union.» (High)
- Boderline too high. Saved by the fact that Requirements Engineering still is a rather easy course, even though they said it would not be. Could be a problem for next year.» (High)
- The cases did take a lot of time, but they were also very helpful in learning the different topics.» (High)
- Case lectures should have been on monday morning instead of afternoon so there are three afternoons worth of time available for the assignment. Depth of knowledge required for the "Dugga" was unreasonable in some regards as questions about anecdotes are not really relevant.» (High)
- A lot of work !» (High)
- Läste bara en kurs så gick mer än bra» (High)
- Structure of course was good, but didn"t let me spend much time on my other course.» (High)
- Due to the course Requirements Engineering changing their course from a "easy" course into a "hard" course and that both this course and Requirements Engineering course is mandatory for me I have spent roughly 60-70 hours a week with work, this is TO MUCH. And because of this the quality in both courses has been dramatically lowered into the point where I fluncted both the duggorna that was given, I will probably be forced to redo both courses at a later date due to this. » (High)
- Very much work. Especially in the beginning. We (Software Engineering) also had another course at the same time with a lot of work to do. Had almost no time at all to study for the test on Maylor"s book...» (Too high)
- Unfortunately, to some International Students as me it is quite difficult to handle high demanding assignments or heavy readings. I believe that by doing more exercises on class time would considerably improve my learning. Moreover, it was/is really difficult to handle the other course beside this one.» (Too high)
- Too much work ! 15p course (or add some more so it can be)?» (Too high)
- In somewhat of a good way. It was extremely tough to fit in 4 cases in this short time period, even though they all were extremely interesting.» (Too high)
- First 2 week in combination with req was a pain... Then it was high.» (Too high)
- The work load was too high, especially when at the same time there was other high work load from another course» (Too high)
- Having 2 courses at this study period, I came up studding more than 12h/day, at least 4days/week, and another 7-8hours/day the rest days. No weekends for 7 weeks...it"s hard! Isn"t it? But thought the heavy workload..I feel that I learned sth. I catch myself thinking from an other point of view, when discussing everyday topics..and that"s interesting!!!» (Too high)
- I would have loved if I had enough time to fully commit to this course. The way it turned out was that my other course got neglected since it did not have as many mandatory hand ins.» (Too high)
- High is good, but not to high :)» (Too high)
- Too heavy and too many cases. Maybe remove one for next year? I can not say which one to remove because all of them seemed relevant.» (Too high)
