Q1. | Please comment on the strengths and weaknesses of the module, and suggest possible improvements. |
1. | Very helpful lecturer, learn alot. However need constant reading on other research materials. |
2. | The course covers both technological and procedural aspects of the Digital Library. |
3. | Strengths: Good examples shown during lecture. Weaknesses: Difficult to understand certain concepts if not in this field. |
4. | nice lecturer |
5. | Spent a lot of time for this module (for the assignments, additional readup, preparations, etc) but I do not have much confidence of doing well in this module. Find this an interesting subject but it is much more time consuming than the other modules that I have taken. Perhaps the continuous assessments can be reduced to 60-70% instead of a hefty 80% of the final score? |
6. | good converage on all related topics on DL |
7. | Strengths: 1. Covers interesting concepts of digital libraries that is relevant to the student. 2. Enables students to apply a substantial part of the knowledge in their term projects. Weaknesses: 1. Lecture time is not set aside to cover future trends of digital libraries, may be useful for research students who are considering future work in their thesis. It may also be useful for part-time students to be aware of the future trends of digital libraries in the industry. |
8. | Strength: introduce various aspect of DL. Weakness: no so systematic and no core concern. |
9. | Give a good overview of what digital libraries are about. |
10. | very informative and interesting |
11. | Interesting module. At first, I didn't know (or even bother) that actually in my daily life as a computer user, I used a lot of applications of DL. Now that I know, I can apply these knowledge to help me in my further research |
12. | Strengths: Providing knowledge for managing big systems Good for research on Information Retrieval and Digital Library Weaknesses: Giving a huge volume of knowledge in many fields that is difficult to catch up |
