Meeting notes

Thank you for the meeting. We are grateful for your feedback. Each feedback is valuable as we are doing our best to iterate and improve our teaching around it.
Please, feel free to contact course representatives and give more feedback.

Here are some notes from the meeting.

Notes on Lectures
- Would have been nice to have recommended chapters before the lectures, to read just those chapters
- It was a bit slow in the beginning, before the project and home exam
- The last two workshops were more interesting – "would have been more interesting to create our own dark patterns instead of looking at some".
Compliments to the course – several students talked about being disappointed with the course being discontinued. They think that
- “This course would be more beneficial instead of GUI as this is a good intro to GUI. Especially for the people who took the sports project. “
- “InfoVis inherited in the Interaction design – there would be a mistake to keep GUI to lose InfoViz. “
- “If you do not know how to visualize your results, you can get roasted.”
- we discussed the option of launching a survey that could help us understand what students think about this.
Recommendations:
- Maybe having a shorter period for home exam 1?
- Maybe more time is needed for the Group project? - as there are many overlaps with other courses
- maybe it would be good to have more time to discuss different types of Info Viz in groups.
