In addition to helping us check that we’ve got the pedagogy right, including feedback and input from students also ensures that we’re designing for other areas like #usability, #inclusivity, #diversity, #community, and #wellbeing, just to name a few.

#RTSF is used while a module is live, with questions geared towards not only gaining feedback but also highlighting areas students may be finding challenging or where they indicate they struggle. Interventions are planned when creating the survey to assist students who need extra support. #OU_LD

The #CDSP survey happens in the module production phase with the module team and learning designer working together to build the survey and compile the results. Getting such valuable feedback at this point allows the MT to adjust activities or learning so that's it's as student friendly as possible.

#StudentVoice is highly valued at the OU. The #CDSP is made up of over 1,500 students who are available to test and feedback on things such as activities, interactives, or more challenging chunks of learning. We may use the whole panel or target students studying specific topics or disciplines.
