When Letterkenny Institute of Technology (LYIT) decided to develop a new process for module surveys, they knew that the ultimate goal would be to enhance teaching and learning delivery across the whole institution.
The evasys team enjoyed the privilege of attending last week’s online QAA event– the International Enhancement Conference, themed around Building Resilient Learning Communities: Using Evidence to Support Student Success.
Student evaluation and assessment specialist evasys today announced that Letterkenny Institute of Technology is the latest higher education institution to deploy its course and module survey and evaluation solution.

A career in Higher Education and a keen interest in the student experience means that I routinely set aside time to keep myself informed of sector developments and opinions on keeping the student voice front of mind.
Since the UK Government’s address on 10th September to Universities UK members that covered, amongst other things, news of a “wholesale review” of the National Student Survey (NSS), I’ve been keeping a keen eye on commentary, as the subject of student feedback is very close to my heart.
We are excited to report that we’ve just made evasys dashboards even better! Our upgraded dashboards are now live with customers, delivering improved navigation and visual display, and bringing more benefits than ever before.
It has never been more important to hear students' voices as early as possible into module delivery, and to support their well-being. A short, sharp Student Pulse Survey will enable Module Leaders, Departments and the University to make early adjustments. It can also be used to identify levels of student engagement and wellbeing, to enable proactive connection and support where needed.
In 2014, Brunel University London launched a strategy that aimed to improve teaching across the university and move the institution up the rankings in the annual National Student Survey (NSS).
As universities look to better utilise the rich data captured from course and module evaluation, the exigency of closing the student feedback loop cannot be emphasised enough - By Bruce Johnson, evasys Managing Director
