- Det är ett otroligt spännande ämne, om föreläsningarna hade varit lite tydligare och lättare att förstå hade jag valt "excellent"» (Good)
- Good lectures, exercise lectures and slides.» (Good)
- The course was very good as the content were very interesting and I felt that I learned alot.» (Good)
- It was a good course and intrestning.» (Good)
- one of the best courses» (Excellent)
- Good, but should be taken by freshmen only since it"s so easy yet so helpful in future courses (I know since I"ve taken many)» (Excellent)

15. What should definitely be preserved to next year?

- Assignments»
- assignments for bonus points, Willard»
- The new teacher for the DIT960 course, Peter Ljunglöf did an amazing job and I would love to have him in any other course!»
- The assignments, it"s a very nice way to make yourself study during the course instead of only really studying right before the exams. Also extra points on exam :)»
- The learning pace.»
- Inlämningsuppgifter»
- Övningarna med Willard!»
- willard! he explains both hard and easy things in an extremely awesome way!»
- Better lectures and exercises. Did not get any anwers on the assigments or the exersices. I would rather look at this: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL601FC994BDD963E4&feature=plcp than read another course like this again. His lectures is more effetive and you learn more.»
- The Excercises»
- The assignments did really help in my learning and should definitely be preserved.»
- The book, the exercise sessions and the content.»
- Willard. Keep willard!»
- the web page with good slides and structure. gj Ana!»
- The assignments»
- consulationtime »

16. What should definitely be changed to next year?

- more exercise sessions, more thorough examples on slides, answers to old exams, answers to assignments»
- Too little time for the last lab in the DIT960 course»
- The answers to exercises in the book were not available. Feedback on assignments could be a bit more clear, but they were ok.»
- Less lengthy proofs, something that I don"t find I will have that much use for.»
- Mer om tillämpningar»
- Tydligare slides på föreläsningar och mer förenklingar och inte bara dom formella definitionerna.»
- We need solutions for the exercises! See my previous answer (9). A re-occuring overview slide in each lecture would be nice. "Last time we learned this, which is used for this and this. etc. This time we will learn this, which is used for this and this. etc. Both of these things we learned fits into these parts of the course and WHAT it is used for." The haskell parts didn"t give me any insights personally. However, please keep and elaborate on why and what the things we learn are used for within programming, no haskell details necessary.»
- Give answers to the exercises.»
- I think that excercises where students work togheter would have helped me study better and from what I"ve heard others agree with me. This instead of individual assignments where you are not allowed to discuss anything at all.»
- The event where we could ask for help. The place we were in was way to small and you rather went home than standing up because of no place to sit and wait for help.»
- It felt that there were a lot of presentation of the lecture in the beginning of each lectures (talking when showing the "cover slide"), also, some of the Haskell examples were a little to big as many of those who had the course hadn"t had contact with the language prior to the course.»
- We need answers to the test exam!!!!!!!»
- The course needs proper exercise sessions, the ones where we sit in EL4x or something like that and do exercises by ourselves and the teacher is present to answer any questions. Either that or we need answers for the excercises given on the web page, Doing excercises without knowing whether you are correct or not is very frustrating.»
- The lectures could have been more varied. Many of them felt like it was the same thing over and over again. Not in terms of content but how it was presented. Most of them were just you going on about a subject then showing some code about it. In the start of the course you described an FA with the "a man with a wolf and a sheep wants to cross a river" problem. Perhaps regular languages and context free grammars can have similar examples. Even simple ones would work, something like “,image a context free grammar like a hamburger, you start with a steak and then add stuff onto the steak in an order described by the recipe (the grammar)”,.»
- i want answers to the old exams and other tasks»
- There should be solutions to all the exercises. »

17. Additional comments

- It would be good to add mandatory exercises where you are allowed to work together (in addition to the assignments). These should be fail/pass, to promote learning together.»
- teacher pronounces some key words very strangely. she should also try to explain concepts in a less formal, non-mathematical way, for example explaining what ambiguous means shouldn"t take 5 minutes when a dictionary response suffices.»
- Overall i"m happy with the course, especially the teachers were very competent.»
- Önskas mer bonuspoäng från inlämningsuppgifterna till tentan.»
- Thanks for a solid course!»
- ANSWERS TO THE TEST EXAM!! That"s where many people start to get to know what everything is about when they see something in the right context.»
