To help your group and the teachers prepare for the tutor meetings, we would like you to answer a few questions in between sessions. The following paragraphs list the questions for each of the weeks, please write you answers directly underneath the questions.


After the kick-off - Week 1

  • What are you expecting to learn during the Robots course?

We expect to learn to take initiative, to work efficiently as a team, to give useful feedback to each other.

  • What kind of coaching do you expect?

We expect passive coaching, where the coaches will only help us when we ask them to. Furthermore, we expect that they will answer our specific questions without them pushing us in a particular direction.

  • What kind of coaching would you prefer?

We prefer the coaches to give constructive feedback on our ideas and extend them with their vision and opinion.

  • What will the coaches expect of you?

They will expect from us to behave actively in the team, show initiative, be motivated, show creativity and come up with innovative ideas.

After the first tutor meeting - Week 2

  • What is the most interesting thing you learned in the coaching meeting of the previous week and why?

We needed to be more detailed in what we wanted to do. Although we understood that we still needed more details, we were really expected to be very specific in what we want to do, and do our research in that area.

  • How did you incorporate coaches' feedback of the previous meeting in your project?

We immediately contacted the research group at TU Delft. Unfortunately, we are yet to receive any meaningful communication back.

  • What new activities did you undertake during this week? What did you learn from these activities?

See above point. We learned that establishing communication is difficult. Furthermore, since we still are not fully sure on what we can do, we are a bit behind with regards to other activities.

We tried to determine what we wanted to do, but because of communication troubles which were out of our control, we did not achieve much else.
