Studentfeedback • The change affected me in the positive way, because I could manage my time more efficiently. The good side of it was that if we had any questions during independent work, we had the opportunity to ask the teacher. • The second semester was better, because there was more independent work and I had to strain myself more. I learn better from my own mistakes than from sitting in the classroom. • Everybody should be able to work out their study routine independently, so giving more independent tasks was justified. This semester needed more effort.
More independent workis good, because it takes more effort and thus I can remember the things better. But I prefer contact classes. • I would have preferred more contact classes. As for independent work, I completed the tasks at the last minute. • I learned more in class. • I didn’t notice anything different.
