Engineering Computation & Algorithmic Thinking 052
Official course evaluation responses and student learning feedback.
Q: Please comment on how the course positively supported your learning.
It challenged my way of thinking of coding.
I liked the teamwork
I had most of my learning during studio because the lectures were not very engaging. I worked hands on with coding, and learned through experimentation.
Q: Please comment on how the course could better support your learning.
I felt there could have been more explainations
Engineering 103 is the accumulation of a series of classes with little intercommunication. Students in this course were at all dierent levels and classwork expectations favored those who had prior experience to the content. For those unfamiliar with a computer language, this class was excessively dicult and poorly taught. Not so much because of the professors but the class series. -- Isaiah Harms
The expectations for this course were too high for those of us who have never coded before. I often had to rely on those who did have experience because the TA to student ratio was too low for the amount of questions we had. My TAs had a lot of knowledge, but their methods of communicating that knowledge, much like the professor, were lackluster without one-on-one direct assistance.
