Student Rep Meeting

We had a good meeting with Russell on wednesday evening. I let my group members know what we discussed and the results.

  • we have only 10 minutes to present - buzzer will go off
  • the tutors only have 20 minutes for questions - buzzer will go off
  • any questions asked to Russell about ut3 problems will be posted on a common forum for all to see
  • a discussion forum will be created for the class use - it will give everyone a chance to collaborate
  • lab time is offered by Russell on Friday afternoons for any help with the ut3 models
  • lab time from 1-3.30 will be looked into for the use by the whole class.

We also talked on how to better improve the course for next year, because every student translated their thoughts on how important this course has been so far

  • the guest lecturer's are a good idea, we all expressed the knowledge we are benefitted from the talks and questions
  • students next year might need to be better prepped for what is in store for them, maybe past students can come and let in them in on some aspects of the course
  • the time of class was discussed. Maybe if it was schedualed for a Monday or Friday it will be viewed as more productive by the tutors

It was a really good meeting.
