https://tidsskrift.dk/IUSTL/article/view/155239
<p>The User Interface Technology (UIT) course at the Department of Computer Science (DIKU) blends lab skills, programming skills, and theoretical analysis in 8 weeks of work on a final group project. Students historically have complained about a too-high workload; by highlighting congruence between day-to-day activities and their final exams and projects through lecture activities, restructuring projects, and providing rubrics, I saw students report the same amount of time spent on coursework (16-24 hours per week for >= 60 % of students) and a lower perceived workload (from 3.8±.73 in 2023 to 3.4±.64 in 2024, both on a 1–5 Likert scale). They also saw greater connections between individual sub-elements in the course (from 3.4±1.15 in 2023 to 3.8±.94 in 2024, also on a 1–5 scale) and gave qualitative feedback supporting the congruence as important. Overall, the intervention appears to have been successful and will be reused and iterated upon in future years.</p>Valkyrie Savage

https://tidsskrift.dk/IUSTL/article/view/155242
<p>This report reflects on improvements made to a pharmacology course based on student feedback and my teaching experience. Key changes included restructuring the course schedule for clarity, streamlining online materials, and modifying teaching methodologies to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. Initial feedback indicated that students appreciated the revised schedule and materials, while changes in teaching methods improved preparation and engagement during my exercise. While average grades were slightly lower than in previous years, student understanding and satisfaction showed promising improvements, highlighting the potential for continued refinements to the course design.</p>Stephanie Andrea Heusser
