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 Student feedback

Feedback

More flexible timetabling of online classes to encourage higher attendance.

Recommendation

As many students are out on placement during T2, a more flexible rolling schedule of online classes will be added to help students attend more of the live sessions.

Feedback from Student feedback

Feedback

Students also identified areas for improvement, particularly around the clarity of assessment expectations, and the timing of Moodle coursework across the term.

Recommendation

Based on this feedback, improvements will be introduced for the next offering of the unit, including: Assessment instructions and marking criteria will be refined to provide clearer expectations. This includes annotated exemplars, improved scaffolding, and more explicit explanations of what constitutes higher‑level responses. Improved pacing of workload: Weekly Moodle content and assessment timelines will be reviewed to ensure a more even distribution of workload and to reduce pressure points later in the term.
