Feedback from Unit evaluation
Some learning material is very old. Proving some relevant technical data/engineering information would be beneficial to the details stage assignments
The learning materials will be updated to include the latest technical data and information.

The feedback on the assignment task sheet and marking rubric was too brief and lacks sufficient information to successfully do the assignment. When I asked for further feedback I didn't receive a timely enough reply.
