How have we done? Let us know!
Unit Surveys launch this week
“Overall, I would rate this unit as being excellent”
“The feedback I received on my work was helpful”
How would you answer about the modules you’ve taken in semester 1? From Monday 5 December you’ll be able to tell us through completing your Unit Surveys.
What are Unit Surveys?
Unit surveys are very short questionnaires. Every undergraduate and postgraduate master’s course unit has one, and they are the easiest way for you to tell us about the quality of teaching you receive.
Why should I fill them in?
You’ve told us that the teaching you receive is the most important part of your student experience. To make sure we’re making improvements in the right places, we need to hear your views and opinions about what’s good, and what needs to change.
How do I complete the unit surveys?
The unit surveys can be completed on your mobile or online.
Online
Log into Blackboard using the link in My Manchester to find the individual unit surveys. You will also be sent an email with instructions on where to find them.
Mobile
Download the EvaluationKIT app to your Apple or Android device, and enter the unique key from your Unit Surveys email. If you have previously downloaded the app your surveys will just appear in your app.
How do I give my opinion when unit surveys aren't taking place?
We depend on your honest feedback to make sure you have the teaching, resources, and facilities you need to succeed. If you have something to say when unit surveys aren't running there are several ways you can still make a difference:
- Speak to your lecturer, tutor, academic advisor, or course administrator directly. Remember that respectful, constructive criticism, backed up with examples, and with preferred alternatives where possible, is more likely to result in a positive effect.
- Speak to your course and programme rep. These are students who have chosen to join staff-student panels. They often have a very good relationship with staff, and can give your concerns a voice in School-level forums. There’s lots more information about reps here
