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 Practicum Coordinator

Feedback

CQU online training module and micro-credential "Mental Health First Aid for Fitness Trainers" should change from highly recommended to compulsory.

Recommendation

It is recommended to have students complete the CQU online training module and micro-credential "Mental Health First Aid for Fitness Trainers" as part of their mandatory checks for the Work-Integrated Learning Practicum.

Feedback from SUTE feedback

Feedback

Some feedback suggested there was a large volume of content within this unit and they found it difficult to keep on top of all lectures and readings.

Recommendation

It is recommended to review the overall volume of content as well as give students advice on prioritising certain readings and content.

Feedback from SUTE feedback

Feedback

Some feedback suggested that releasing case studies prior to the residential school would make it easier to prepare for their practical assessments.

Recommendation

It is recommended to review the timing of release for case studies used in practical assessments within the residential school. This timing should take into account students' ability to prepare for assessments, as well as fostering critical thinking skills.
