QUALITY THERMOMETER

Taking into account the students’ wishes to make the surveys attractive and easily accessible to each student, a short evaluation questionnaire for modules / subjects was prepared – the“Quality Thermometer”, which allows: 

• to see the overall evaluation of the module / subject as soon as the student answers the questions; 
• the lecturer to see the assessment “here and now” and assess which parts of the module implementation are the strongest, and where a more detailed analysis of the reasons is needed; 
• to fill out the form on a mobile device;  
• to submit suggestions in free form;
• to stay anonymous.

The “Quality Thermometer” questionnaire for a subject / module is available only after the subject/module has been completed and a final grade has been entered. The questionnaire can be accessed in the Study Record section of LSMUSIS or in the Study Portal by clicking “Evaluate” next to the relevant subject / module. Each student may submit their evaluation once.
