Student Feedback on Teaching and Courses Workshop Dates 2019
The Student Feedback on Teaching and Courses policy approved by Senate in 2016 encourages good teaching practices such as student-centred approaches. The policy is not prescriptive, instead, it encourages faculties to develop their own student feedback approaches and methods. Faculties can thus choose their own guidelines and implementation strategies to facilitate student feedback for their diploma and postgraduate qualifications.
The SFTC workshops will provide lecturers with more information about gathering feedback from students. See dates below:

The workshops are facilitated collaboratively by Najwa Norodien-Fataar (Academic Staff Development, Fundani: CHED) and Antoinette Van Deventer (e-Learning, Cape Town campus), Mavi Mavela (e-Learning, Bellville campus). The focus of the workshop is to orientate lecturers about the value of obtaining regular student feedback. During this practical session the facilitators will assist lecturers to use Google Docs and Respondus in Blackboard to access and select items from a database for the design of questionnaires containing structured and unstructured items. Lecturers will also have the option to include their own items in the questionnaire.
