ReplyDeleteCurious to know what your thought of M366. I'll guess that you quite enjoyed it, judging by your results, but what I'd like to know is what the course really covered. I've read the description on the OU pages, but that doesn't tell me enough.
Its one of those courses that sounds as though it should be really interesting, and I have it ear-marked for when I get back to studying.
Anyway, good luck with M359 (I did that course on its first presentation - say no more!). And good luck with your project.
Thanks. I'm pretty good at cramming for exams, though it nearly kills me each time.
ReplyDeleteI quite liked M366. I did a post on it when the results came in. I was looking forward to the AI course before I even started the degree, it seemed the most geeky and old-style computer science course on offer. I say "quite", as there is also a lot of waffle. "Philosophy of AI", I labelled it as.
Most folk found it very very tough. I think they made changes after the first presentation though. I read around the subjects a lot, and I went the extra 200 miles for the TMAs that had any coding aspect.
