2 5 very high 7 high 2 medium low 5) Was the course relevant to your research studies? 8 very relevant 5 relevant 1 irrelevant very irrelevant 6) Was there something in the course that was especially positive? Bra och tydlig föreläsare. Computer labs, knowledgeable teachers. Hans S Jag gillar upplägget teori fm övn em. Pedagogiskt och bra men svårt. Very good and understandable lections. Positivt med genomgång av laborationsuppgifter dagen efter, bra examination. Dataövningarna + när vi gick igenom dessa i klassen dagen efter. Bra med upplägget teori på fm, övning i datasal på em. The teacher s skills to present and teach and explain. I liked the teachers reasoning about statistics. Yes, this course provides more specific and advanced in the analysis, which is related to my project. 7) Was the content of the course to your satisfaction? Yes, although more applied to the students projects and more interpretation training. Ja, alla viktiga delar för log regression gick vi igenom på ett bra sätt. Absolutely. Yes, this course is very good.

3 8) What kind of improvements would you like to make? See point above. None. Kommer inte på några. Vet inget särskilt. Mer focus på hur man använder statistiken I SPSS. I would like all lecture notes to be handed out in paper format on the first morning of the course. Det vore bra om man vet redan innan kursstart att det kommer att vara en tentagenomgång och vilket datum det blir. Jag avbokade ett möte för att kunna vara med på det första datumet som vi fick angivet och sedan blev den träffen flyttad till en dag/tid då jag inte hade möjlighet att vara närvarande vilket var tråkigt, jag hade gärna varit där. If possible, more notes from Georg Heinze. After practical session, would be better if the teacher gives briefly time to explain the result (to see whether the analysis we have done in the practical session is in the correct way and the interpretation of the result. 9) Further comments: (Please write on the back of this form if you need more space!) A good thing was the final meeting when we got explanations regarding the exams outcomes. After you have filled out the form, please hand it in to the course coordinator.

4 UMEÅ UNIVERSITY Faculty of Medicine Spring 2012 EVALUATION OF ADVANCED BIOSTATISTICS COURSE, part II 1) Name of the course: Survival analysis 2) What is your postgraduate subject? Exercise physiologi Familial amyloidosis, genetic causes Nutrition Tidig rheumatoid artrit aspekter på komorbiditet och sjukdomens svårighetsgrad ophthalmology 3) Is your research field mostly within 1 preclinical research 111 clinical research 1 public health research health care research other Please specify "other": 4) As an introduction to your research studies, which quality level do you think this course has had? 1 very high 111 high 1 medium low 5) Was the course relevant to your research studies? 111 very relevant 11 relevant irrelevant very irrelevant

5 6) Was there something in the course that was especially positive? Critical thinking about data and experiment design. Bra med laborationer I datasal. Bra föreläsare. 7) Was the content of the course to your satisfaction? Det finns fortfarande en del frågetecken kring metoden som jag inte har fått klart för mig. Mycket nöjd med kursen. Ja, men det var svårt. 8) What kind of improvements would you like to make? Viktigt med genomgång dagen efter varje datalaboration som det var på log regression. Skulle vara bra om föreläsningen lades ut någon dag före på Cambro. Dels att handouts lagts ut tidigare (inte 10 min innan) så att jag kunde skriva ut dem innan kursen började, dels mer konkret demonstration hur man gör beräkningar i SPSS. 9) Further comments: (Please write on the back of this form if you need more space!)
