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 Comment from student
Links to CQU Career Hub resources and interviews with CQU Career Hub staff were highly beneficial when creating a professional portfolio.
It is recommended that this unit continue to engage with CQU Career Hub staff and resources in future offerings.
Feedback from Comment from student
Some of the videos that were pre-recorded were helpful, but from previous years.
It is recommended that a review of all pre-recorded videos takes place and updated prior to the start of term, so students can work through the content in this unit at their own pace and around other commitments.
Feedback from Verbal feedback to the Unit Coordinator
Students appreciated the flexibility of the Unit Coordinator and individual meetings as required to discuss assessment requirements,
It is recommended that the Uni Coordinator continues to support students with flexible communication strategies as required.
