2011 results summary

StudyGroup grades

Statements taken from 2011 student feedback

“The leader was very good. It is easy to relate to and understand what he is saying; concepts and ideas are easy to understand.”

“It encouraged me to study lecture notes in an ongoing basis.”

“I liked being able to talk about things discussed in lectures and expand on ideas. We could get help for making sure we understood everything.”

“We can bring up any questions or problems we are having with the course.”

“Examples being explained by someone near the same age as you; they help you understand easier.”

“Reviewing material each week helped to keep one up to date and discussing previous topics stopped me forgetting about them.”

“The leader is very knowledgeable in chosen subject - she gives plenty of exercises which help reinforce what I learned during lectures.”

“Working in a group tossing ideas around, figuring things out as a group really gets you thinking.”

“Good to have a tutor who is a vet; it gives us a role model.”

“I feel comfortable enough to ask questions and don't feel stupid for asking them.”

“It's great to be able to have a small group to do questions with and do ‘fun’ study.”
