A. Quality of student work, pace and content, appropriateness of teaching methods and action(s) taken to resolve
any problems
A much more balanced distribution of marks compared to previous years suggesting the work was sufficiently stretching.
The course is quite mathematical in places yet taken by almost all the Earth Science students (and Natural Scientists) so it
can prove to be a challenge. The marks suggest that the pace and content are about right.
B. Any Learning Resources problems which have affected the provision of the Module (quality of lecture or tutorial
rooms, laboratory or IT facilities and action taken or planned
The Garwood Lecture theatre is in need of an overhaul with outdated facilities and seating provision.
C. Issues identified by students (from questionnaires, staff-student committees etc.) and action taken or planned
D. Issues identified by External Examiners and action taken or planned
E. Chair of Teaching Committee’s Comments and Action Taken or Planned (Where applicable. Where no comment
is required, please see the overall departmental report)
