Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from Informal student feedback.

Feedback

One student tried to publish their assessment in an International Journal. But the journal in assessment submitted to CQU Moodle were also detected in turnitin process by the publisher so they got high plagiarism score.

Recommendation

In future unit offerings, the students will be made more aware of the fact that CQU uses Turnitin and that publishers also may use this, so they need to be aware of this issue if they wish to publish their assessment results.
