- All the different "question for learning" was not answered during lectures or in the book. How are we supposed to learn them?» (80-100%)
- But I felt that the exam did not really test the things that I had learned ... I thought I know everything in the course good but many of the calculation exercises on the exercise made me feel lost.» (80-100%)

- The exam tested things we didn"t went through. It was to hard, why not test "basic" things that we learned don"t make it to complecated what is the meaning with that? What is the meaning with 91 questions for learning if he does not test if we learned it?» (No, not at all)
- The exam was very hard and it felt like it tested things that we had not learned.» (To some extent)
- yes it did, the assigments were very good (except the last one, number 8, which was difficult to grasp and udnerstand how to do). But the exam felt more diffucilut than the things that we had done in lectures and assigments, also I was surprised that the exam did not correspond more to the learning questions that were distributed. I mean, some of the learning questions felt to be not so up to date compared to what we actually spoke about during the lectures. I spent a lot of time finding answers to all of them and afterwards I realise that the exam did not test the learning questions so much. Maybe update those questions to they fit better to the lecture contents.» (To some extent)
- The examination assessed whether the goals was reached in a way, but at the same time it also included questions that were not closely related to the course content and that were above the level of the lectures.» (To some extent)
- hard to understand the questions, everyone had to ask!!!» (To some extent)
- None.» (Yes, definitely)

- Gunnar was not present during the "assigments" and such, would have been better to at least have an hour with a computer room booked and Gunnar present. Very difficult to manage to do something right when you are unable to ask questions. We are here to learn, right?» (Rather poor)
- why aren´,t they any exercises theatchers?» (Rather poor)
- No opportunities for me to aske things during breaks since there always were other people askign things ...» (Rather poor)

- Everything came to late» (Very badly)
- The homepage was a bit of a mess and it was sometimes hard to find what I was looking for (due to for instance confusing titling).» (Rather badly)
- correcting things took too long!» (Rather badly)

- We need more computers, it is still hard to find computers. And it to fue (få) study rooms, specially during examn week.» (Small extent)
- The computer labs are always very occupied and you sometimes don"t get a computer when one is needed.» (Some extent)
- To find a computer is necessary to be able to make the assigments. computer labs should be booked for such things in i course I think since there are usually very few computers free during the times we got to work with the assigments.» (Large extent)

- It is good that I like to read this subject and wants to work with it in the future if not this it would be terrible» (Fair)
- It should be more complicated and demanding! This is the master level and it feels like im back in high school. Much of the course content we already have been through during the course "Teknisk samhällsplanering" and the master student should be at the same level as the swedish students so why not make it a bit more advanced. As it is right now it would barely be suitable for the bachelor program.» (Fair)
- We could have learn more, the trip to Copenhagen was god, but maybe is more for the course Risk Assessment and decision support» (Fair)
- I like the broad range of topics covered and the assignments were a very good way of assessing this. » (Good)
