[Graduate-research-list] QAA Focus Group - volunteers sought

The QAA's Enhancement Project Interview Team will be visiting Stirling on Tuesday December 9th to 1 investigate student needs and identify target areas for improved student support and 2 to determine the main issues in collecting student evaluation of and feedback on their learning experience. We are looking for one full-time Postgrad Research student and one part-time Postgrad Research student to volunteer to participate in a focus group from 10am - 12 noon on that day. This is an attempt to gain an overall picture of issues facing institutions, practitioners and students in relation to student support and student feedback. This is not an audit of institutional procedure and all information and opinions of volunteers will be anonymous. Students participating in the focus groups will each receive a book voucher to the value of £10 as a token of appreciation for their involvement in the research. Lunch will also be served from 12 noon. If you are interested in this opportunity to contribute your views on Learning Experiences and Student Needs, and would like more information, then please contact Ginny Saich at DAICE [vas1(a)stir.ac.uk] by Friday November 28th.
