Student Surveys of Teaching and Units
The Institutional Research and Evaluation Service provides a service to teaching staff at Murdoch to
help them collect feedback from students on their teaching or unit. Student feedback can be used to
–
- identify areas in your teaching and unit which are working well or which may need improvement;
- provide evidence to be used in promotion and/or job application and/or to be included in your personal
teaching portfolio.
Unit Surveys
Units at Murdoch are surveyed on a two-year cycle, ie 50 percent of units each semester (selected
by the relevant Division/School) are required to have a unit survey which
collects student feedback on the unit overall. All unit surveys are administered online using MOSS
(Murdoch Online Survey System).
Teaching Surveys
Surveys of teaching are voluntary. Surveys of teaching collect feedback
on the teaching of an individual staff member. The questionnaire can be used by lecturers, tutors,
workshop leaders, etc. Teaching surveys are required in
promotion applications, probationary
reviews and in the initial stages of the Vice
Chancellor's Teaching Excellence Awards (TEX).
In order to help maintain student confidentiality, surveys (unit or teaching) are not undertaken where
there are 10 or less enrolled students.
