Nothing is what it seems at first
Enjoyed session. Good to discover other class members are feeling the same as myself about accessing information
I feel slightly rushed on the referencing...a full day session would be great
I really enjoyed the session, especially workshop part and feedback from the tutor
Should have had on day 1
...be more organised and write down plans on objectives of my workand reflect on every step I go. Draught and log everything from mistakes to learning new skills
Analysis• 91% positive feedback
• 60% of students showed an improved understanding of study skills
• Of the 111 sessions delivered, 70 were follow‐ups and returns by tutor request
Reflection• Kick started the process with PiNs
• Plan to introduce: tutor interviews, focus groups, observation
• Difficult to use qualitative data to produce numeric analysis
• PiNs good for anonymity but not for analysing improvement and success
