There was a setup error with PEP and the Evasys system, because of

which we were only able to collect 64 responses (out of 400+ eligible

students) this year. The submitted responses indicate that students

were satisfied with the module.  For example more than 64% of the

students found the pace of the lectures about right and more than 81%

of the students found the module intellectually stimulating. Furthermore

75% od the students we satisfied with the quality of the module, with

another 7.8% expressing a neutral opinion. Of course we will work

hard to maintain, and possibly even improve upon, such a favourable view.

Students generally liked learning new programming languages and 

seeing programming from a different point of view. Also students appreciated

very much the setup of coursework and the automatic feedback via Github

submissions. We will keep this in the future. We will also keep the two

deadlines for the coursework in November and January for the work to

be completed. This seems to have worked well with students (as opposed to

weekly deadlines we had in previous years). We did not hear about any

problems regarding the SGTs and TAs. We will keep the format of weekly

SGTs led by an experienced TA.

Some difficulties arose from the study material. We will go over the

provided material for the next year and implement potential

improvements.  We inherited this year the software behind the testing

framework. We will endeavour to maintain this testing framework, which

is a potpourri of scripts written in Perl, Bash, PhP, Python, as well

as C++ and Scala, of course.
