Page Content:

By now, many of you are likely aware of the enhanced Student Feedback system. Introducing Blue Explorance, the latest iteration through which valuable student feedback are collected. Blue Explorance has been rolled out for the Mid-Semester feedback period (from 18 March 2024 – 12 April 2024), with activation across most undergraduate modules. The roll-out has not been without challenges but significant efforts are dedicated to address these before the next round of feedback.

As the semester winds down, anticipation builds for the upcoming end of semester student feedback period (13-24 May 2024)—a crucial opportunity for students to voice their opinions and experiences regarding their teaching, learning and assessment. This period serves as a valuable mechanism for fostering communication between students and staff, enabling constructive dialogue aimed at enhancing the overall learning environment.

Differences between Mid-semester and End of Semester feedback opportunities:

feedback is purely formative results will only be shared with the lecturer(s) of the module survey instrument consists of three open-ended questions intention is to provide indications of how students are progressing in the particular module and how student learning can be enhanced in the remainder of that module	equivalent of our current formal feedback survey instrument uses an eight question survey with Likert scale responses results will be shared with the lecturer and his/her Line manager

 

As the upcoming feedback period approaches, students and lecturers alike are encouraged to actively participate and engage in this collaborative process. By fostering open communication and a culture of feedback, SU can continuously evolve and strive towards excellence in teaching, learning and assessment.
