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 Coordinator reflection

Feedback

The unit requires students to progressively develop a prototype, and avoids excessive number of written reports, allowing students more time for development.

Recommendation

Keep the main focus on prototype development rather than producing excessive amount of written reports.

Feedback from Unit Coordinator reflection

Feedback

Use of state-of-the-art tools would enable students to accelerate development of quality mobile applications.

Recommendation

Mandate the use of state-of-the-art tools, such as Figma for user interface design and Bootstrap for HTML page design.
