Editor's Notes

  1. Mark Russell teaches Thermodynamics to 1 st year engineering students.. The module is compulsory and highly mathematical.. And traditionally has a high referral rate. Mark believed that more time on task and feedback was necessary and created an automated system for doing that…..
  2. Lots of data came back from the diaries as you can imagine, students had a lot to say regarding their learning experience and very often would talk about aspects which were not of any relevance. This was why in the second project we used more directed/ focused questions for the students to answer so that they could give us structured feedback to aid analysis
  3. StudyNet supported students’ learning both in class and out of class. In class was with lecture notes being available, and out of class was for them to use resources when working on coursework, etc.
