Previous Student Feedback

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 SUTE Unit comments

Feedback

A number of students felt the marking criteria were confusing and could be improved.

Recommendation

The marking criteria and marking rubrics will be revised and updated by the unit coordinator.

Feedback from SUTE Unit comments

Feedback

The dates for one assessment needed to be adjusted, as a result of issues with students' access to Q-Interactive software, which caused stress for students.

Recommendation

The Unit Coordinator and the Head of Course for the Master of Professional Psychology will start the process for students' access to Q-Interactive after their acceptance into the program (both MPP and MCP). This will facilitate students getting access to the software so that they can complete their assessment by the due date.
