Abstract
The 1st year course “Experimental Physics for Engineers” at the University of Stuttgart was analyzed to find evidence for restructuring the module. Despite a cautious approach to the statistical data, justified statements about the effectiveness of the learning resources of this course can be made. The analysis provides a basis for the restructuring of the module and its further evaluation.
