Questionnaire.

Age: 37 years old.

Sex: Female

Subjects taking are: Social Policy and Social Care.

Q.Does Being Bad relate well to the other modules you are taking?

This module engaged me to think in a different way than the assignments I have been given. Some of the weekly titles in the module will in someway link to the outcome of Social Policy and Social during employment.

Q. Have you found 'Being Bad' too demanding, too easy, or at an appropriate level?

Being Bad has helped me to think critically and rationally in regards to the weekly subjects.

Q. Do you think the list of topics covered on the module appropriate?

I think some of them are relevant but i done see the relevance of bad comedians and the Kids movie.

Q. Are there any topics not included in the module that you would like to see included?

I think it would be good to include racism and prejudice. Although they can be difficult subjects to talk about, I think it is very important to see that racism still exists very strongly.

Q. Do you think the format of the class has worked well?

I think a change of rooms would control some of the students. Many of them were loud and there were many different conversations taking place at any one time. Even though I always sat at the front of the room, I had difficulty in hearing the lectures at times.

Q. What do you think of the module team?

I think the team knew their subjects, but having different lectures each week, it didnt really make time for student and tutor relationship to form.

I think as a whole it would have been better to have a room other than the lecture theatre, that way other students would be able to get to know each other. Small group discussions would be good as it would help other student to have n idea of what other students think about the subjects.

Having different formats to hand in assignments helps students to think more rationally. I enjoyed creative writing but did not understand much about how to format the other types of presenting the assignments.

Q. Do you think that interdisciplinary modules are a good idea?

Yes

Q. Do you think you have benefitted from the disciplinary approach taken in the module?

Yes.

Q. Would you like to see more modules that cover this kind of subject matter?

Yes.

Q. Are you planning to take the follow-up module PH2004 module at level 2?

It all depends on how well I do with this one.

Q. Do you think the blogs (web logs) were a good idea?

I didn't like the blogs, so I will say no to this question.

Q. What did you think of the assessments?

I think it would have been better to have a 1000 words essay than two short pieces.

Q. What have you learned from the module.

That it is hard for me to self direct my study.

Q. What parts of the module have you found most useful and why?

Listening to the lectures and learning how they dumb down words which sound more difficult than they actually are. I also found the workshop very useful to have just before the main lecture.

Q. What parts do you think were a waste of time and why?

Going to watch a video, hardly anyone turned up. It would have been better to show slides and give our leaflets about a particular movie.

Q. Are there any other comments you wish to make regarding 'Being Bad'.?

Overall it was interesting and enjoyable.
