About the S2 2018 Survey
The myExperience Semester 2, 2018 survey will be open to students between Monday 8 October through to Thursday 1 November. (UNSW Academic Calendar only).
Students will receive one survey for each one of their courses, each survey will include course questions and a set of teaching questions for each of their teachers. During previous survey periods students received a survey for each of their classes, e.g. a survey for a lecture and tutorial separately.
myExperience survey administrators located in schools / faculties are responsible for assigning teachers to the correct courses in the myExperience system.
Conducting the survey in class
The myExperience Survey Procedure states that provision should be made for the myExperience survey to be conducted within lectures or tutorials on the students’ mobile, tablet or laptop. We recommend administering the survey mid-way through your class, when most students are in attendance, to achieve the best response rate.
A powerpoint file is available here to display to students when they are completing the survey.
It is important to tell your students:
- This is your chance to tell us about your experience of learning and teaching at UNSW.
- The survey is confidential and teaching staff do not know their identity.
- Survey reports are not released until rsults have been officially published - their feedback can not have an impact on their results.
- Their feedback matters - the only way we can improve what we do - or to keep doing the good things we do - is by knowing what they think.
Students can log-in on their laptop, tablet or phone and:
- Click the link on Moodle course page; or
- URL http://myexperience.unsw.edu.au use (zID@ad.unsw.edu.au); or
- Link in an email from myExperience.
The link in Moodle will take students directly to their survey without needing to login. Approximately 80% of survey responses originate from the Moodle links.

The overall response rate for your courses will be shown in real time. Just refresh the page to get the latest response rate data.
myFeedback matters
myFeedback matters is an editable Moodle dialogue template that enables you to communicate what you have implemented in your course to enhance the student learning experience.
It is important to respond to student feedback so that they recognise that their constructive feedback contributes to improvements in their learning and teaching.
Course improvements addressed can be derived from a variety of sources, including, but not limited to, student feedback from the myExperience survey. Improvements addressed may relate to specific course assets including resources, activities, support and/or evaluation (RASE)
Instructions on how to edit the template are available on the myFeedback matters page.
The link in Moodle to the editable template looks like this:
