  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

    2018 SELT Feedback: more examples of community nurses and what they do would help us all understand the importance of community nurses.

    This year there will be 6 face to face presentations compared to 3 last year. The increase in face to face content is in response to previous SELT feedback. This will allow student to ask questions and to learn about the varied roles of a CHN.

    I really struggled with the project. I found that having practically no boundaries as to what we could do, was very difficult for me, as I had to think really hard about what I could do.

    in response to this statement more detail will be given regarding the project. All students were invited to meet with the course co-ordinaotr with their specifc topic or if they were sturgging to come up with a topic. A moderate number responded to this. Online learning means less contact with the Lecturer and more self directed learning and reading - this is an ongoing struggle for undergraduate students.

    For international student, we do not the mode of 最新糖心Vlogn community, and we do not know how a community operates, we want some basis introductions to know what are components in a 最新糖心Vlogn community

    I am hoping the increase in face to face presentations helps the international students this semester.
