Online module evaluation feedback

Module Evaluation Feedback can be done online, this saves a lot of hours of work collating questionnaire answers and saves paper.

If you are concerned that students will not fill in the questionnaire if it is online, then allow a little time in the lecture as you would with a paper questionnaire, and students can fill it in during class time using their mobile devices. On the rare occasion a student does not have a mobile device, ask them to fill it in at home, (or log into a computer if one is available) you can also ask any non-attendees to fill it in at home. 

For maximum response, it is advised to not wait until the very end of the final class when they will be leaving the room straight afterwards, as often students will not fill it in, but are more likely to if you make time during or before the final class.

Administrators Only - merge module results for several modules

All administrators have the option to view several modules at the same time.

This can be done from any results page (there is no central report page for a department or programme)

Open up the Filter results option at the top of the page and type in the code of a module you want to add to these results:

Keep adding modules until you have the set you want to show together. You can only choose modules that are in the same Moodle category.

Once you have added all the modules you want to show together, click filter results
