SETU Online Surveys Opening Soon

The SETU online surveys will be opening soon  – Sept 2nd for the T3-57 Units and Sept 30 for the Semester 2 Units. You will receive an email from the University’s Quality area once your SETU surveys are ready for you to complete  – so please don’t delete this email or filter it out. You can access these online surveys via your my.monash portal. We would really appreciate it if you could please complete a SETU survey for each Unit in which you are enrolled  –  we do really want to hear your thoughts about your Units and the teaching in them. The online SETU survey has 2 parts – one is for you to rate the actual Unit and the other part is about the teaching within that Unit. You may also make some comments about the Unit if you wish – but please can you give us constructive criticisms and  possible suggestions about how to improve the Unit.   Please don’t write any comments which are of an offensive nature, and/ or may breach the University’s Equal Opportunity Policy

http://www.monash.edu.au/equity-diversity/policies/equal-opportunity-policy.html and /or refer specifically to individual teachers.

Thank you very much for your assistance with this matter and we do use your feedback to continually improve the Units that we offer.
