Feedback from students highlights the need for enhancements in course structure and resources. Key suggestions include integrating exam materials more closely with lecture content, providing a clearer and more effective textbook, and introducing recitation periods for collaborative learning. Students expressed a desire for less focus on complex derivations and more on conceptual understanding. While the class is appreciated, adjustments in delivery could greatly improve comprehension and engagement.

Student Comments: • “Have exam related to the lecture material. Have better text book. Have a recitation. Problem sets aren’t really helpful” • “Great class, but a recitation or an occasional discussion of the hw by the professor/TA would be awesome” • “Love this course but complicated to understand” • “A more clear textbook would reinforce the prof.’s class notes” • “A better textbook is necessary and less theory introduction” • “Less deriving stuff” • “Recitation period would help a lot” • “Spend less time deriving. We don’t use the complex math shown. Focus on concepts only” • “Sometimes, the lectures seem digressing and gets excessively analytical”
