A university-wide end of module survey has been in place at the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) since 2014-15 providing a means for students to feedback on their experiences at module level. The main aim of introducing the survey was to gather more immediate feedback than the National Student Survey (NSS) and at a level where good (and not so good) practice could be reliably identified. A subsidiary aim was to have a mechanism by which to predict NSS results. The aim of this session is to consider the relationship between internal and external surveys and their relation (if any) to teaching quality. Session objectives are to:
• Describe current survey practices at UHI
• Compare module survey results with NSS results
• Discuss the strengths and limitations of using module survey results as a predictor of NSS results
• Discuss the relationship between survey results and teaching quality
