EECS Faculty Lunch

Vijay Kumar, Jeff Merriman, and I presented an intro to Stellar to the faculty of of EECS today, and then asked for feedback. We should have budgeted much less time for presenting and more for listening. Unfortunately we had to leave well before everyone who raised a hand had the chance to speak.

Here are the comments that got through.

  • It's unclear how to save content at the end of the semester
  • It took me 10 minutes to create a class website, there is no overhead
  • Problem getting e-reserves into the site from the library the requested papers never got scanned
  • I'd like the materials to be integrated with a version control system
  • The class reg lists weren't always accurate, especially section information
  • When I asked for help I always got a reply within an hour
  • It was hard to assign multiple students to sections at the same time
  • I couldn't get into my colleagues' courses. Materials should default to be publicly available
  • I'd like to have a lab notebook tool students can use like a wiki

I'll forward these on to stellar-suggest. I hope we'll get more by email.
