2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation

Ideals of Students in EECS Engage in Berkeley’s Strong Academic Community Learn and Explore Today’s Technology Contribute to Tomorrow’s Technology

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation 2005 Student Presentation Requests 5 th Year Masters program Computer Security class THANK YOU!

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Course Surveys

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Concerns Students do not see course surveys effecting change in EECS courses Low ratings do not lead to changes in course structure or staffing High ratings do not lead to visible recognition

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Proposed Solutions Have professors examine and adjust to specific (teaching style-related) course survey responses

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Proposed Solutions Rotate professors with low ratings to classes that may more closely fit their interests Professor peer review and teaching seminars

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation High Ratings – 6.2+ in Fall 2005 EE: Michael GastparChenming Hu CS: Dan GarciaRandy Katz John KubiatowiczDavid Wagner THANK YOU!

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Redundant Course Material

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Concern Students feel that too much prerequisite material is repeated in later classes, especially at the semester’s beginning –Basic FT in Math 54, EE 20N, 120, 121, 123 –RSA is taught in Math 55, CS 70, 170, 162, 194 Takes time away from advanced material

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Proposed Solutions Introduce honors classes with advanced topics in place of redundant review material Restrict review material to first homework Move review material into extra, optional, discussion sections or review sessions

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Undergraduate Research

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Concerns Undergraduates still find it hard to participate in research

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Proposed Solutions Create a seminar class for professors to present their research to interested undergraduates –Motivate students to do research –Inform students of the latest work in EECS –Help students find specific areas of interest

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Proposed Solutions Create more 98/198 courses –Students like opportunities like UCBUGG, Gamescrafters, etc. –98/198s are bridges between normal classes and 99/199 research

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Proposed Solutions Graduate student-led research –Graduate students can lead 198/199 groups for undergraduate research –Could count towards graduate TA requirement

2006 Undergraduate Student Presentation Faculty-Student Interaction
