Before SFQ's begin for your course, instructors have the option to add up to three personalized Likert scale questions and three personalized open-ended questions to the SFQ. This is a valuable way to align the SFQ with your specific course content, teaching practices, and initiatives, and it offers a convenient opportunity to gather additional feedback. About a week before your course’s SFQ opens, watch your Humber email for a reminder to submit your questions (for 14-week courses, you can expect to receive this email in Week 9).
These are some examples of personalized Likert scale questions you can adapt to your course’s SFQ:
- The use of student response systems was an effective method to keep me engaged.
- Using real case studies helped me understand the importance of [X topic].
- The unit assignments made sense to me; I understand their purpose.
- The opportunity to choose a method of demonstrating my learning was valuable to my learning.
- Peer assessments were an effective tool to support my learning.
- Student response systems kept me engaged.
- End of class reviews helped me organize important points to remember.
- The use of storytelling stimulated interest in material and helped me remember the concepts.
- Mixing the groups so that we worked with different people was an effective strategy to help me see other perspectives.
Reach out to the Innovative Learning Support Centre if you need help with forming these personalized questions for your course(s), or to the Office of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging at Humber Polytechnic by completing this request form, where you can meet with and/or discuss your ideas for personalized questions with a member of their team.
If you do not receive an email with instructions on how to add your personalized questions, please double check to confirm your SFQ start date using the SFQ date tool; please also check your inboxes for messages from StudentFeedbackQuestionnaire@sfq.humber.ca. If you don't see an email in your inbox regarding the addition of your personalized questions, it may be in your spam or junk mail! If you have not received this email and want to add custom SFQ questions, please reach out to the Innovative Learning Support Centre.
Please note that once your SFQ dates begin, you will not be able to add personalized questions. This option is only available before your SFQ starts.
