Here are all the comments that I have posted on the other students’ blogs during the course:

I agree with you on that the text contains topics that are important to question and to not take for granted, because it is easy to forget reflecting over this topics in our program at KTH. So far we have mostly learned hard topics like math and physics and what I have learnt from that is there is only one right answer to everything, but I know that in the “real world” outside KTH there is no right simple answer: Therefore it was good for us to read this text to be reminded of reality, and also to start to reflect more.

I agree with you on that we need to work more on our "paper-finding-skills". Before this course I did not barely know what a journal was, even less how to find them. But I guess both you and I now have developed our skills.

It was interesting to read about your experiences from the second seminar, because I unfortunately missed it. Interesting thoughts about generalizing theories and on what kind it is applicable.

Hi Johan!
I was also disappointed when I read the paper about robots and realized that they did not have an prototype of it. I am also curious of if they have implemented this,i t would have been interesting to read the outcome of that. Otherwise it is maybe an idea for your upcoming master thesis?

Thank you for your detailed description of this week's lectures. They were, as I had guessed, very interesting. Haibo's lecture seems to have been something really special, especially about the "90-10% theories". I have never reflected over that in relation to problem solving but it is an valuable insight, that could, as Matteo says, be useful in our everyday life as well. I am, as you are, a bit too comfortable when facing problems that I have not seen before. But to be able to grow you have challenge yourself all the time.

I think you have interesting thoughts on qualitative methods that I share with you in someways. I like quantitative methods better because of the large data it can genereate, which could make it more generelixbar, which makes it feel like you actually have come to something and can make a conclusion. But
