學生對 科罗拉多大学波德分校 提供的 First Order Optical System Design 的評價和反饋

Wonderful course! I have learned a lot. This course not only covers the knowledge but also the actual approach to design a working optical system.

The course is well structured. it would have been much better if there was more zemax design model in the weekly quiz.

Good lectures and presentations in this course. A sound and systematic basis for the next courses to follow.

Clear conceptual explanation of optical design concepts. Very helpful forf understanding ZEMAX operation.

This course covers the basic and gives an introduction good design tools. It is a challenging course

This is a good course for those people wanting to start their learning in optical system design.

Instructor explains the basics of optics very well. Practical example exrecise are very good

the professors explain very clearly and go from thin to thick. It is easy to understand.

Very helpful. Material is good. Professor explains the topics very nicely.

Amazing course, a bit tricky though! Instructor is really good.

Excellent course, thank you Amy and Robert.

It was great experience to learn zemax

Nice Coarse to get started with.

Matlab skills are learned.

This course is good

Excellent course

excellent

As physics courses go, this one is good but not great. Which is to say, the prof does a good job explaining the concepts but has a tendency to dive into complex examples without giving basic examples first. As others have stated, this means you'll have to do a fair amount of searching the internet for other resources to supplement the provided course material. It is possible to pass the quizzes and progress even without understanding 100% of the material.

There are some really useful nuggets of information about first-order optical design, which are explained well and often (after you've got past the basics of the first couple of weeks of material). This course gets to be quite rewarding from week 3 onwards. I do recommend it despite its downsides.

Generally good, but some things should be described more detailly. For example, sign convention should be explained better, especially for mirrors. And in some tests the questions appear that were not discussed in the lectures, such as microscope, and it's necessary just to use some formula without deep understanding in this case. But as a whole the course content is interesting and really seems to provide a set of powerful optical design tools.

The course gives information on basic optics and ray tracing, as well as more involved formulae for systems of thick lenses. I appreciated the various approaches that are presented, analytical, experimental and numerical. More than anything, the introduction to optics studio is very helpful, and I will definitely follow the next courses to deepen my knowledge of optical design.

I got to learn about ray optics and all the basic mathematical tools needed for an optical system design. Also got a hands on experience with Zemax OpticStudio. The assignments and homework problems are really good. But the best part is the capstone project at the end.

Great content but the provided learning resources are limited to the video lectures and exercises. There is no staff helping in the discussion forums. Question hang there without answers for months.

Great course, but the tool (Demo version Zemax) is not very useful because of the removal of several important features (e.g. save, undo and limited precision).

Well made course. clear lecture. removed one star because lecture note is not sufficient to cover all the concepts. Need more reading materials.

Really valuable introduction to optical design, I learned a lot! It takes dedication though, but it's totally worth it.
