Custom Final Evaluation for CPSC 314, Dr. Munzner, Term 2 04-05

Thanks for filling out this survey - it will help me improve the
course, both for the rest of this term and for future versions. To
return this evaluation anonymously later, ask the front desk
receptionist at the CICSR second floor to put it in my mailbox.

this course
 is worse than I expected   is about what I expected   is better than I expected

the content of this course is

 learn almost nothing        learn some           learn a lot

the lecture slides in this course are
 not at all useful            ok                 very useful

the grading in this course is
 unfair               fair

in doing the programming projects for this course, I
 learn almost nothing          learn some           learn a lot

are the programming projects
 too hard            just right           too easy

in doing the written assignments for this course, I
 learn almost nothing          learn some         learn a lot

are the written assignments
 too hard             too easy            just right

 more than most other courses       about the same         less than most
