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 Unit evaluation

Feedback

The assignments were interesting, but the most beneficial part of this course was the lecturers' quick response to queries and questions about them. Made the process of understand the course material and assessment simple, as well as, providing feedback on whether we were on the right track.

Recommendation

The teaching team will reply to students' queries and questions quickly.

Feedback from Unit evaluation

Feedback

Reduce the number of assessments. It makes it really hard to complete other units being taken simultaneously

Recommendation

A Unit Update Proposal has been approved to reduce the number of assignments from six to three.

Feedback from Unit evaluation

Feedback

Some of the lecture content and assignment hints were delivered quite close to when the assignment was due - if these could be delivered earlier on, they would be easier to integrate into the assignment

Recommendation

The due dates of assignments will be adjusted, which will enable students to spend more time preparing for assignments.
