The resource is a template for surveying students about their timetabling experiences. The survey was deployed in MTU, but the template is free to be copied and adapted as needed.
This survey can provide valuable feedback of the needs of the student population as a whole, and the needs of different cohorts. Instructions are included for minor changes needed before deployment (e.g., replace the list of departments that are specific to MTU with their own list of departments),
We hope by sharing this resource we can also build a bigger picture of the needs of students across the HEI space, and create potential collaboration for people working on the timetabling problem. This problem is both extremely challenging to solve and extremely impactful on the engagement and learning experience of students. Improving the latter also improves the teaching experience for staff with better attendance and more engagement; and indeed reduces the admin work for class coordinators, heads of departments, timetabling coordinators, etc.
