Module Progress Feedback Form
Based on currently recurring feedback from students through SSLCs, and reflected by the 2006/07 NSS survey,
it is clear that students feel that more can be done in terms of providing opportunities for feedback on their
modules. Although feedback carried out at the end of modules is essential, many students feel that their input is
unimportant and will have no impact on positive change affecting them, and thus do not take the time to give
honest and constructive comments about how the module is run or organised. The aim of a module progress
feedback form is three-fold – to increase the quality of student involvement in feedback at all stages, to increase
the confidence of students in having their opinions taken seriously, and to ensure that problems occurring in
modules are picked up and dealt with immediately.
Although one of the main purposes of the SSLC system is to deal with problems concerning modules, it is often
difficult for representatives, particularly with highly subscribed core modules in the first year, to gain an accurate
picture of how students are finding a module. In many cases, students are particularly unwilling to raise issues
themselves, and although problems are usually successfully dealt with by SSLCs, students are unaware both of
the role of their reps and the fact that module lecturers have taken their views seriously. Student apathy is a
large problem, and a lack of constructive feedback impinges on teaching quality, academic standards, and the
positive esteem of departments.

The aim of this feedback form is to identify any issues or confusions students have with regards to
modules, as early as possible in an easy, simple and quick way.

During the third lecture of each module, the forms are to be passed along each row and collected,
then collated by the SSLC reps to be given to the module convenor.

Summary sheet (with comments if necessary) will then be given to the module convenor, in the
anticipation that a response will be given at the next lecture.

The questions have been selected by the SSLC reps in order to facilitate their job and to ensure that they
are as representative of the student body as possible.

The questions are not intended to be a means of criticising individual lecturers, but more to ensure that
there are no confusions arising from the differing styles in lecturing and learning.

It is also hoped that, by seeing that their feedback is responded to, student confidence in participating in
feedback and satisfaction with the department will increase.
Ultimately, in order for this scheme to be as successful as possible, departments and SSLCs would be required
to work closer than ever before – such a partnership would be both innovative and exciting for both students and
departments in achieving their common objectives.
