Notes de l'éditeur
But before that…let´s go back to basics… It all matters a good evaluation and feedback method… please don’t run away! I know that you might be thinking that this is waste of time and boring! That is the way I also used to think before. Today I am more than excited about this!
I know all about this too well and it makes me mad every time when I see people struggling with the feedback forms and senseless queries.
This is a simple example of the course feedback! Course feedback is typically made at the end of the course. I would like to ask why. Also the students might like to ask what is it good for them? Why not to ask already at the beginning of the course or after the few lessons. That is the only way to be able to affect also the on-going course members to benefit of the feedback. The results should be public (at least for the group).
In Finland each student will bring about 7000 dollars each year max 4 years The maximum number of students for each year is defined by the goverment We can have more, but we won’t get the money of extra persons. So, you must understand that these are some of the key figures in our University. Without a good success in figures, we would be in trouble. What are the reasons for the students to apply for our school? Where and how did they received the information and made them to choose our University? What are they worried about at the starting phase of the studies reason for the delays of the studies reason for quitting the studies
