Feedback
At Annamacharya University, the Department of Humanities and Sciences places a strong emphasis on continuous feedback to enhance academic processes and student experiences. The feedback system is designed to gather comprehensive insights from various stakeholders including students, parents, alumni, faculty, and industry professionals. This system includes multiple feedback mechanisms such as personal interactions, surveys, and formal reviews.
The department conducts several feedback processes:
- Student General Feedback: Collected twice each semester, this feedback covers aspects such as course contents, teaching-learning processes, resources, and evaluation. This is structured and managed by the Dean of Academics’ office.
- Student Satisfaction Survey (SSS): Administered once per semester, this survey focuses on capturing the effectiveness of innovative methods and approaches in teaching and learning, ensuring that the processes are continuously refined.
- Student Exit Feedback: Taken once a year from final-year students, this feedback addresses their experiences with the admission process, course contents, teaching-learning processes, resources, evaluation, and placement services.
- Academic Peers Feedback on Curriculum: Gathered once per semester, this feedback involves assessments from peers on curriculum design and effectiveness.
- Parents Feedback on Curriculum: Collected once per semester, this feedback seeks parental perspectives on the curriculum and academic processes.
- Alumni Feedback on Curriculum: Also taken once per semester, this feedback provides insights from alumni on how well the curriculum prepared them for their professional careers.
- Industry Personnel Feedback on Curriculum: Obtained once per semester, this feedback evaluates the curriculum’s relevance to industry standards and practices.
- Student Feedback on Curriculum: Collected once per semester, this feedback helps in understanding students’ views on the curriculum’s effectiveness and areas for improvement.
- Faculty Satisfaction Survey: Administered once per semester, this survey gauges faculty satisfaction with course contents, teaching-learning processes, and resources.
- Parent Teacher Association (PTA) Meetings: Held once per semester to enhance parental involvement and strengthen the relationship between parents and students through various developmental and recreational activities.
Online feedback is gathered via Campus ERP at the end of/during each semester.
Informal feedback is also collected through selected student representatives within the first few weeks of each semester.
Department Heads are responsible for submitting detailed feedback reports to the Dean of Academics, including comments and observations.
