I would like to nominate Prof Burgard for the teaching award. My reason:

  • "He delivers lecture very well. I think, among the whole Faculty of informatik.As far i study and find this Prof. very well."
  • "Er hat eine sympathische Art, ist gut vorbereitet und hält gerne eine Vorlesungbei der es leicht fällt zuzuhören und den Stoff auch zu verstehen. Außerdem stehter bei Fragen und Problemen auch außerhalb der Vorlesung zur Verfügung."

What do you like about this course?

  • "Thema"
  • "Some of the chapters discussed"
  • "A very broad coverage of AI topics is taught; Good overview for subsequent courses"
  • "Contents woth broad perspective are provided."
  • "Lectures are full of motivation and experience"
  • "I like about this course that the professors follow a book so we can learn the things from the book in case we don't understand it. I like also the LPD files so we can repreat the things we learnt easily!"
  • "The course is designed ver well. It gives the basic and advanced ideas of AI."

What do you not like so much about this course?

  • "Folien werden nicht vor der Vorlesung veröffentlicht."
  • "Sprache!"
  • "Themen zu kurz angesprochen (3 Folien) aber aufwendige Übungen zu. Übungen sind so nicht machbar."
  • "der frühe Zeitpunkt"
  • "der frühe Zeitpunkt der Vorlesung (9 Uhr)"
  • "some of the content is quite formal. Some of the slides and content are repetitive (meaning saw them in 2 other lectures before"
  • "The slides are not very helpful, when solving exercises, since they lack detailed descriptions of important procedures and enough examples."
  • "dass die Vorlesung englisch ist"
  • "Prof. Nebel macht keine Pause"
  • "englischsprachig"
  • "Folien nicht ausführlich genug"
  • "Vorlesung auf Englisch"
  • "No time for some 'modern approaches'. Anyway, we can do that ourselves according to interest."
  • "Every week Exercise is too much. There should Exercise session after 2 weeks"

Any suggestions how to improve this course?

  • "Folien vor Vorlesung veröffentlichen"
  • "Triviale Zusammenhänge nicht ewig durchkauen"
  • "deutsche Folien, wenn nicht in der Vorlesung, dann wenigstens im Internet"
  • "etwas ausführlichere Folien, deutsche Folien"
  • "Maybe just keep it!"
  • "Mehr praktische Übungen"
  • "Because the Exercise are too much every week. Therefore I suggest that after 2 weeks we should hold the exercise session and during this 1 week there should be a reading Exercise. 1 week Exercise session + 1 week Reading Excercise. By practicing this we got more ideas of advanced AI "

Questions about the tutorial

How difficult are the exercises?

[Abbildung 8]
too easy easy adequate difficult very difficult

Are the tutorials a good addition to the lecture?

[Abbildung 9]
not at all not very average good very good

How well does the tutor explain and answer questions?

Is the group size of the tutorial ok?

[Abbildung 11]
too small small adequate big too big

Your feedback concerning the exercises and the tutorial:

  • "Zu viele Übungen pro Woche: Zeit in Übung reicht nicht, um alle Aufgaben zu besprechen!"
  • "In the lecture some algorithms are presented (A*, alpha-beta-pruning,...). Implementation exercises would be very helpful to really understand the details of these algorithms"
  • "gut, dass man Bonuspunkte sammeln kann"
  • "Einige Themen der Übungsaufgaben wurden nur sehr knapp in der Vorlesung behandelt oder sind nur sehr kurz in den Folien beschrieben."
  • "Well-structured exercises, good support to the understanding of the lecture.Important parts are clearly explained with musch time, although sometimes out of time for some minor questions."
  • "I want to give feedbackregarding exercise that there should be reading exercise that we could read the paper or some other kind of literature and review it. This could help us to explore more areas of AI."
