Exercise week 47

+

November 20-24, 2023

+

Date: Deadline is Sunday November 26 at midnight

+
+
+

Overarching aims of the exercises this week

+

The exercise this week is a simple course survey and feedback. This +is important for us in order to improve our teaching material, the +active learning format and anything else related to a succesful +mastering of central machine learning methods and their applications.

+
+

Why did you choose this course?

+
+
+

What was your programming knowledge before you started?

+

And do you feel this course added to your programming competences and skills?

+
+
+

How do you judge your own level of knowledge on machine learning before and after this course?

+

Here you can discuss your level of skill/knowledge at start of course +and at the end of the course and how these matched the level of +skill/knowledge needed to complete the projects.

+
+
+

Did the projects and the teaching material allow you to deepen your insights about Machine Learning?

+

Feel free to comment here.

+
+
+

Project based teaching and active learning

+

This is a project based course and we as teachers would like to keep +it as it is since we see very clearly that people who attend this +course have a very good learning outcome. Project based courses are +however demanding (and expensive seen from the university admin) when +it comes to proper feedback and evaluations. Feel free to discuss +whether you found a project-based and active learning approach +useful. Feel also free to comment upon things we can improve upon or +alternative ways to assess whether the learning outcomes have been +achieved. Would you for example prefer a standard 4 hours written exam +be something you would prefer? Or other alternatives to projects? We +would very much value your thoughts here since projects are an +essential part of this course.

+
+
+

Usefulness of the weekly exercises

+

Did the weekly exercises help in getting started with the projects? +How relevant where they for solving the projects? Feel free to +elaborate

+
+
+

Active learning/lab sessions and lectures

+

Was there a good link between lectures and active learning sessions? +Would you prefer an active learning environment only with no lectures +or would you prefer a more lecture based format with lab sessions only +(that is no discussion at the beginning of the lab sessions)? Feel +free to comment.

+
+
+

How would you improve this course?

+

Are there topics which are missing, topics which could have been +omitted and/or discussed in more depth? Feel free to add your comments +here such as how to improve to teaching material and more.

+
+
+

Then some basic questions

+
+

Which is your preferred information chanel, Canvas, Discord, mail or other?

+
+
+

Was the weekly update with plans etc useful?

+
+
+

Was it easy to access the course material?

+
+ +
+

If you did not attend the lectures or the active learning/lab sessions, which resources did you use?

+
+
+

Any other topics, impressions, ideas etc you would like to share with us?
