The surveys have open questions for you to give specific feedback and express concerns. This is your opportunity to suggest improvements to course delivery methods, reading lists and course content.

Examples:

  • Instead of "The class was great," explain why: "The class was great because the information was well organised and presented, and the explanations were easy to follow."
  • Instead of "I enjoyed this course," say: "I enjoyed this course because the teacher used interesting examples that made the class relevant and easy to understand."
  • Instead of "I couldn't understand anything he said," try: "He should explain difficult concepts in depth rather than just reading from slides," or "When he used jargon we didn't know, I had trouble taking notes because I didn't understand the words well enough to write them down accurately."
