Student Opinion Survey on General Education

Student Opinion Survey on General Education

Date: 30 January 2008 (Wednesday)
Speaker: Dr. Leung Mei Yee (Office of University General Education)

In order to improve the quality of GE at CUHK and provide basis for developing new courses, the Research Centre for General Education plans to conduct a survey on “Students Opinion of General Education at CUHK” in coming April.
Preliminary literature review leads us to several important college student surveys in the USA such as The American Freshmen Survey, which yields an extremely interesting and informative portrait of the changing character of American college students, and National Survey of Student Engagement, which is specifically designed to assess the extent to which students are engaged in empirically derived good educational practices and what they gain from their college experience. Several colleges and universities have also conducted insightful surveys on student opinion on GE.

In this luncheon, Dr. Leung Mei Yee, Associate Director of OUGE will share with colleagues  main items, theories, results and influence of the above surveys, introduce the rough ideas of the upcoming student opinion survey as well as discuss with colleagues its goals and content.
