the
course was mostly a primer to MEMS. The course could be any better than this.
The large strength of students in course indicates how hot the field is. The
audio files of the lecture was really helpful in reviewing the course at crunch
time, giving the vital points/answers. Comic relief during the lectures by the
professor was quite a relief, an ice-breaker. Overall the course was worth
taking.
·
Nice
course ....and prof apte is
gr8! Mems RULZ!!!!!!!!!
·
an
excellent introductory course..but i guess the course could be a little bit more
advanced...most of undergrads took the course in 4th yr 2nd sem,
so this might be the only course in this field we might ever take..so i guess we can raise
level of this course a lttle bit...whn the question comes about the varied background of ppl, i dont
think that should define the boundaries of course content. if a person wants to
study, he will, we shd not make course simple for those
ppl. please keep the idea of providing the lecture audio..it helps to recollect wht
all was taught in lecture better..
·
This
was the best and peaceful course which not only provided ample amount of fundaes but was provided in a rather simplest way with not
much effort. On the whole it was a course that was worthwile
taking and the instructor was very effective.
·
Please
do not make other comments during the lecture. It results in decrease in curuiosity.
·
This
is a greaat course and we need to have more such
courses where the workload is not too high and we can also understand the
latest technological stuff going on. OVerall I also
feel that Prof Apte was an excellent professor.
·
great
tutor and good subject
·
good
course...but in exams instead of theorey whole paper shld be numericals based..as numericals let us
understand course better, theorey shld
not be given high weightage...as it will make course
a maggu course still amng
best course in insti
·
every
professor should learn from him
·
Total
number of students in this course were too many. There has to be a limit for
maximum number of students who can take a course, or this course can be
provided during both the semesters so that students are evenly distributed.
Overall this course was a good one. I should rather say, a project with 20-30 %
weightage, than a quiz would have been more helpful.
·
course
was vry well organized
·
It
was a wonderful experience to take this course. Prof. Apte is a perfect example
of how a Prof. should be.
·
The
efforts of Prof.Apte in conducting the course very
well for students with different backgrounds is appreciable. His efforts to
make students feel excited and think of research is really great
·
This
course should be made compulsory for some of the departments like mechanical,
electronics, aerospace, biomedical,etc. this course
can improve interdiscipinary application
understanding of the subject, which is the need of time.
·
we
enjoyed every lecture in terms of subject as well as professor teaching he has
got a kind to motivate the students towards the subject good professor and well
available outside the class room as well to clarify the doubts.good
professor taught a very good subject in a nice manner and with effective
lectures
·
I
liked the new emerging concept explained by the teacher
·
Prof.
Apte is very good teacher but They should limit the maximum number of student i think only 30 to 40 students
·
The
presentation of the course material by the instructor was exceptional and
accompanied by good jokes in between.
·
Instructer has excellent teaching skills and generates interest in his
subject.
·
The
good point about Prof. Apte is that he arouses interest in students for his
subject without bullying or intimidateing them with a
very cool attitude. It was really worthwhile to take this course.
·
Simply
Good and nice teacher!!
·
Excellent
course; must continue the good work
·
Its
very well organised
·
(a)
the multiple mid-sem concept of sir, to give students
another chance if they perform poorly in an exam (b) nothing (c) everything is fine
·
The
course could be more effective, if real life assignments or projects are
included in it.
·
very
nice course
·
500
students is too much
·
the
way of teaching
·
the
proffesor has excellent teaching abilities.
·
An
excellent course. Well thaught by the instructor.
Certainly benificial.
·
Some
assignments or a course project have to be included to enable us in getting
better command over the subject.
·
1)The
material and audio lectures were available on the Intranet. 2)Articulate
teaching by the instructor.
·
nice
lecture. it was quite informative
·
I
like the subject because not only teaches in regular hours, he conducts extra
classes for ur benefit. Moreover, with lots of pain
he himself made availble the required course material
for the students through net(slides + audio)and xerox
material. I am very happy to see such a professor in my life, who looks for the
benefit of the student in all the ways.
·
it
is a very nice course and give a understanding ofg
MEMS
·
good
course
·
As
a institute elective i think this is a very good subject.Because it is giving a good exposure to a new
subject & the teaching method is also appreciable.
·
Great
course and great instructor.. good amount of learning.. this course should be
there... for ever
·
phew
... a class with 600 odd students ... but u wont find more than 50 students in
the classroom (and there are more than 250 students who haven`t
attended a single lecture - they got to see who the instructor is in the exam
hall only :) ... and this happens when u dont take
attendance (ok taking attendance of 600 students is not possible), but then u
provide the students with ur recorded lectures (that
too synchronoused with the lecture scanned slides),
so do u really expect anyone to come to the class ... and this really
frustrated me during the first half of the sem ...
but the I started feeling sorry to see the plight of the instructor ... Prof
Apte, a man with great patientce ... he never
complained (??) ... he too was aware of the situation, but was helpless (??)
... and I really appreciate his decision of not running this course from next
year ...
·
Except
the exams (which are comparatively simple) all the content of course is
excellent. I haven`t seen this much preparation by
the instructor in past. Instructor is excellent teacher and having knowledge of
what to give the general class of student. I like this course very much.
·
good
course dealing with upcoming concept
·
This
is the best course I ever came accross in my IIT
stay. Prof Apte did everything possible one prof can
do...I mean re-exams..re-quizes...no attendence...no compulsions...easy midsems...online
slides..available xerox...online
lecture (audio)..and what not!! Really enjoyed the course..and
learned a lot.!! hoping for grading in same kind way:)

a)completely
new area, the sophistication and perfection in teaching,
·
this
course was very much interesting and the instructor was lenient
·
This
was one of the best courses ever taken by me. I was greatly impressed by the
amount of effort Prof Apte has taken to make such a tough subject so easy. He
is very dedicated and commited on his assignment. No
wonder why this was such a popular subject among the students.
·

The
instructor is very good and taught the course in a very interesting way. The
