Getting the most out of your year • Lectures • Taking good notes – revising the material • Suggested text books • Problem sheets • Maths café revision sessions for more popular units? Speak to student rep • Drop-in-sessions – see School of Maths Intranet • Feedback
What to expect from feedback on problem sheets: • Where a question or part of a question is completed well there will be a tick and at least a one word written comment to indicate the level of achievement. • Where a mistake is made the point where the work goes wrong will be clearly marked and a written comment will explain why it is incorrect and what the consequences are of this error. • Where appropriate, suggestions for improvements could be made. • Homework feedback form • Feedback on problem sheets during lectures • Solution Sheets
If feedback does not meet these expectations… ….TELL SOMEONE! - talk to lecturer - email math-info@bristol.ac.uk - use template “reporting homework feedback” on Blackboard/School of Mathematics/Homework
Feedback to you • Individual comments on homework and coursework • Group feedback on homework • Solution sheets • End of unit exams – just a mark Timing: within a week for regular homework, within 3 weeks for larger coursework
