The students feel like they have learnt a lot of useful knowledge and they appreciated the
homeworks. The workload felt much higher than 4 credits.
Good python introduction and gradual build-up of difficulty.
Lectures are clear and aligned with the homework.
Some direct responses from the students:
“Overall, in contrast to what i have heard from other students, I did find this course very instructive,
useful and fun. However i do find it is possible to improve it:
Pros:
The pre-recorded lectures are well prepared and very clear.
The online book is very thorough and aligns perfectly with the course material
The python exercises (especially in the beginning) are feasible and give good practical experience.
-The exam seemed to be up until the course material of HW09 which i liked because it was
understandable.
Cons:
From homework 10 onwards, the course becomes harder to follow, the EOMs are tricky to
understand (with the Md, Mk, Mn matrixes etc)
No physical lectures, physical lectures would be nice for the motivation to actually attend the
lectures. Even if the physical lectures would be the exact same as the pre-recorded ones.
Difficult to prepare for the exam. Would be nice if there was at least 1 extra 'homework' that
would have exercises from all the previous homeworks combined, so that there is new practice
material for the exam.
Multiple choice questions (especially about python syntax stuff) quite useless compared to the
very usefull practical skills i gained from this course.”
“Way too much work and not enough exam practice material.”
“The lecture videos are clear. But it was not clear what was going to be on the exam.”
