Genomsnitt: 2.9

- Lack of tutorials in the beginning. When we eventually had tutorials, they all came within a few days, which made it hard to develop the project enough between them. More construction tutorials may also be needed since many projects seemed to be underdeveloped constructionwise.» (Insufficient)
- after the first tutorial it was no longer a course for 2 months, just an idividual work with no feedback» (Insufficient)
- the guidance with the teachers were more of listening than guiding, and suggestions and reflections came more from the other students than from the teachers. This is not necesarily something bad, just a reflection. To have some guidance more towards the competition deadline would have been great, I understand there are some scedule issues with but maybe next year that could work out. » (Sufficient)

- Since i was not is a group that worked with drawings or grasshopper files, I did not learn much about construction in this part of the course.» (Insufficient)
- Especially from constructing it live! Also I was in teachnical drawing so I worked with thinking about the assembly, and visiting RIBO so that has been really rewarding » (Excellent)

Genomsnitt: 4.09

- aim of the course really good, very well prepared, reality unfortunatelly different in the "competition part"» (Passed)
- I really enjoyed this course and learning grasshopper.» (Good)
- Have recommended this course to anyone who can take it!» (Very good)

6. What should be preserved next year?

7. What shuold be changed the nest year?

- Longer and more complex grasshopper course. More tutorials earlier in the project during the concept phase, together with engineers (KG?). More even distribution of workload among the students (many people are missing out in the end of the course, putting more work on other students»
- I think that in the later part, all groups have worked well and done their job. I think the hardest group to be in for any student is management since it is the least clear regarding what is excpected from you (seeing this from a sutudent perspective). I think that if next year this group had more guidance they could have been more like the oil that made stuff work, walking around and talking to the groups when they worked, always keeping up to date with what"s changing and connecting the groups. Now it would appear the managment group has focused much on who works and who does less, and less on what is going to make the project successful. »
- more meeting with the teachers during the course,they helped a lot more grasshopper course,very interesting »
- The mid part of the course was too much, it would have been much more interesting to work with the final project if the design wasn"t "finalised" in the mid part. I would have preffered the mid part was more about coming up with a concept to continue working with. I also think that using steel might have resulted in too many options, meaning mainly that the rolling and unrolling was really difficult to do in an exact way, in the computor modell. resulting in a lot of frustration and al lot of work that could not bee solved in grasshopper (as the plug in works today)»
- -More Grasshopper tutorials in the beginning -Lasercutting of first exercise was unnecessary »
- to increase more tutorial time during part2»
- More tutoring and more grasshopper tutorials»
- - tutorials during the course, not individual work with only showing the result at the end - some lectures (not bending workshop at the end of the course) »
- 1. If possible avoid planning any schedualled time during the last week of the parallell course Architectural Competitions. 2. Be more clear with the judgement criteria for the competition-part. What aspects of the design dose the jury want to see solved and what aspects can be left for further develoment in the phase 3. From the course introduction and the brief i got the impression that detailing and constructibility were essential factors for the design proposal, while the jury seem to think otherwise.»
