3. Semester 2 Unit Evaluations
Just a reminder that Semester 2 Unit Evaluations are coming up soon and we would really appreciate your participation in the Unit Evaluation process for each of the Units in which you are enrolled.
We evaluate most of our Units paper based, so this means that a short survey will be administered in your class. Your feedback about your Units is taken very seriously and the Chief Examiners use this information to continually improve the quality of the Units.
We would really appreciate any constructive criticism about how we can make the Units even better, plus of course any positive feedback about why you thought your Units were really good!
You can find out more about Unit evaluations online at:
