Discussion
A) The purpose of the evaluation
The data collected above is for both the lecturer directly concerned and the
department they operate within. the questions are designed to test several hypothesis. The
first is that social science courses are broadly, but not directly, applicable to general academic
progress. Often, students will take these courses and enjoy them, but not think about how the
skills they have gained fit into their academic career in general. Similarly, they often struggle
with non-obvious parts of the course, which can put them off similar courses in future, and
reduce the extent to which they transfer any gained skills.
As such, this survey is designed to unpack both the personal and academic benefits
and problems of the course and the students particular involvement with uit, developing both
as distinct response sets. Part of this hypothesis is the assumption that students are capable of
refined analysis of their experience if they are led into that analysis in the correct manner, and
that if questions do not develop from one another the answers will be much more confused,
collating personal and academic responses.
B) Choice of format for questions
The first two questions use a Likert scale for their answer. This gives us a baseline
against which to measure the other results, which are more complex. However, each question
is designed the same way. The...
