Dear Northeastern University Vancouver Administration,

We, the undersigned students enrolled in the IE6700 Data Management for Analytics course at Northeastern University Vancouver, are writing to express our collective dissatisfaction with the course's quality and teaching methodology. As students who aspire to excel in the field of data management and analytics, we believe that the current course structure and delivery are not up to the mark and do not meet our expectations.

The course content provided in IE6700 Data Management for Analytics lacks relevance to current industry standards and practices. We feel that the material covered is outdated and does not adequately prepare us for the challenges and demands of the rapidly evolving field of data management. Additionally, the course fails to address essential topics and techniques crucial for success in analytics careers, leaving us ill-equipped to tackle real-world challenges.

Furthermore, the teaching methodology employed in the course leaves much to be desired. Lectures are delivered in a monotonous manner, lacking engagement and failing to stimulate active participation from students. There is a noticeable absence of interactive sessions, practical exercises, and real-world examples that would enhance our understanding of the subject matter and improve our learning outcomes. As a result, many of us struggle to grasp complex concepts and apply them effectively in practical scenarios.

We believe that Northeastern University Vancouver has a responsibility to ensure that its courses meet the highest standards of quality and effectiveness. Therefore, we call upon the university administration to take the following actions to address our concerns:

Update the course content of IE6700 Data Management for Analytics to include relevant topics and techniques aligned with current industry practices and trends.

Implement innovative teaching methodologies, such as case studies, hands-on exercises, and group projects, to promote active learning and student engagement.

Revise the assessment methods used in the course to accurately measure students' understanding of the material and their ability to apply data management concepts in real-world scenarios.

By taking these steps, Northeastern University Vancouver can ensure that students enrolled in IE6700 Data Management for Analytics receive a high-quality education that prepares them for successful careers in data management and analytics.

We, the undersigned, urge the administration to address our concerns and work towards improving the quality of the IE6700 Data Management for Analytics course at Northeastern University Vancouver

The course is an important course to Data Analytics Engineering department, but it's so unfortunate that student's expectation wasn't met. The overall performance by students was out of personal research and practice, no knowledge was gotten from the instructor due to weak connection and proper teaching. It would have been better teaching Vancouver campus students at a time than taking numerous campuses at a time. For the huge sum of fees been paid, Vancouver students deserve the best teaching irrespective of been online or onground classes. I strongly agree with this petition.

- For this course (IE6700) combination of the in-person and remote classes led us to the worst experience of receiving education. - In the first few classes the lecturer had to continue with the local class(in Boston) and the remote class could not get anything but just seating in the class due to different types of technical issues. - Lack of connections continued through out the courses, sometime lecturer is not clearly audible sometimes we cant which part of the slide he is in (local class can follow last they can see the pointer on the slide) - Remote class was never able to follow when anything was explained in the whiteboard. - The intention between the instructor and remote class was a complete failure through out the course with the remote class(it was quite good for the local class)
