- If you haven"t seen Java before it is too challanging to do Assignment 2, there where alot of collaboration with my fellow studnets to pass that one.

- There were problems with easy chair. I believe the whole group should get the same information. Also, the deadlines were never kept.» (Rather badly)
- Easychair was a bit difficult to understand, and some more descriptions about changing roles and submitting would have been good. Was it possible to hand in PDF for reviews?» (Rather badly)
- The different documnets on the course homepage where a bit messy. Easychair didn"t work for mine group, but when it did (for others) it seems to work well.» (Rather well)
- Except that some of the assignment were impossible to solve and should have been removed years ago.» (Rather well)

- The assignments were very good but they took too much time because of the reviews etc.» (High)
- 9 hand in! First 3 real, good ones, then 3 where one should evaluating what someone else had done, 2 pages on a 6 page hand in. This was difficult, and a lot of focus where put on the language and structure of the English. If the intent was for the material itself I think that should have been more clear. At least I got few comments on that. After this there were 3 more! To change what one had wrote, this workload was very different for different groups. Furthermore it was difficult to determine if the comments were valid example if the answer was different for the last hand in. And no response had been given on any of them. In my opinion one should get a answer on a hand in before the exam making it possible to realize if some material has been misunderstood. A response from one with as limited knowledge as one self is not much help. And most was as stated on the English.» (Too high)
